A few family questions
What ages is this for?
Curious children and their families can explore together. Parents manage the household and purchases; the mysteries and chess challenges work best with adult help for younger players.
How do I cancel?
After activation, open billing management in Coach Settings to cancel future renewals through Stripe. Access continues until the end of your paid year. For help before activation, email admin@checkeredcrown.com. Cancellation does not automatically refund an earlier payment.
