Pricing FAQ

Quick questions.

How do bundles work?
The five themed bundles (Manslaughters · Fatal Offences · Non-Fatal Offences · Property Offences · All of Criminal Law) are being set up on Payhip. The buy links go live as each bundle's product page is created. If you'd like early access to a specific bundle, email Lak and you'll be told the moment the link is live.
If I buy a bundle, do I get future topics in it free?
Yes. Each bundle is sold as the complete set of its category — buying the Non-Fatal Offences bundle today gets you every NFOAP topic on launch, regardless of which one ships first. The "All Criminal Law" bundle gets every future Criminal Law topic at no extra cost.
Should I buy single topics or wait for the bundle?
If you only need one topic, single topics at £6.99 are the fastest route. If you'll need most or all of a category, the bundle saves money — Manslaughters and Property bundles save ~£9, Fatal and Non-Fatal save ~£12, and the All-Criminal-Law bundle saves £50+. Existing single-topic purchases can't be retroactively rolled into a bundle, so plan ahead if you know you want multiple topics.
What's the difference between the Manslaughters bundle and the Fatal Offences bundle?
The Manslaughters bundle contains only the four manslaughters: Loss of Control, Diminished Responsibility, UAM, and GNM (£18.99). The Fatal Offences bundle adds Murder on top of those four (£22.99). If you already have Topic 2 Murder, the Manslaughters bundle is the better choice; if not, Fatal Offences gives you everything fatal in one purchase.
Is it really lifetime access?
Yes. Once you buy, the download link is yours forever, and you get every update to that topic (and bundle, where applicable) for free. There's no subscription, no expiry, and no rebilling.
What if I'm AQA, not OCR?
The core Criminal Law content is the same across boards — actus reus, mens rea, the leading cases. The OCR-specific elements (assessment-objective phrasing, paper structure tips) are flagged so AQA students can adapt easily.
What's the refund policy?
Because these are instant digital downloads, all sales are final — but if you have a genuine issue (file won't open, content error, technical problem), email support and it gets fixed or refunded.
Can I share with a friend?
Each purchase is licensed to one student. Sharing files is a copyright breach and is monitored. If you and a friend both need access, both buy a copy — at £6.99 per topic it's the price of a coffee.
