LingQ referral link: 100 bonus LingQs for new learners

What is LingQ?

LingQ is an input-based language-learning app: instead of drills, you read and listen to content you find interesting and build vocabulary along the way. It runs on the web, iOS and Android, and supports more than 50 languages.

Key features listed by LingQ:

• Lesson library of real-world content in categories such as news, culture, entertainment, lifestyle, science, food and sports.
• LingQs: click an unknown word or phrase, see a translation and save it; the app tracks and helps you review saved words over time.
• Import your own content (articles, YouTube, Netflix, ebooks, podcasts) and turn it into lessons; AI tools generate transcripts, translations and audio for imported material.
• Browser extension for Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge that turns web pages into lessons.
• Progress statistics, streaks and language challenges.

Audio imports are limited to 60 minutes and 60 MB per file.

Who it's for

LingQ suits learners who want to learn from authentic material and are comfortable reading a lot: intermediate learners who have outgrown beginner apps, people preparing for reading-heavy exams, and anyone who wants to turn a favourite podcast or book into study material. Premium members can study several languages at once.

Complete beginners can use it too; the method is reading and listening rather than structured grammar lessons.

Pricing at a glance

LingQ notes that prices are approximate USD and may vary by region; the exact price is shown in your account before you pay. Subscriptions can be cancelled at any time.

LingQ referral bonus and affiliate terms

LingQ runs one combined referral and affiliate program, described on its referral page:

• New user: 100 bonus LingQs on sign-up, to use before needing to upgrade.
• Referrer: also gets 100 LingQs, plus 20% of all payments the referred user makes for as long as they stay on LingQ (LingQ's example: a $120 annual upgrade earns a $24 fee).
• Tracking: a referred user is tracked permanently once registered; the Referrals tab shows who signed up and who upgraded.
• Payout: contact LingQ to cash out; payment goes to PayPal. No minimum payout or schedule is published.

Any LingQ user can join: the personal link is in account settings, or you can add ?referral=yourusername to any LingQ URL.

Refunds, cancellation and limits

Per LingQ's terms of service, new Premium sign-ups get a full refund within the first 30 days; after that, fees are non-refundable. You cancel from the Settings page (an email or phone request does not count), and Premium stays active until the end of the paid period.

If you subscribe through the App Store or Google Play, you must cancel there; Apple requires cancelling at least 24 hours before the period ends. Technical support is by email only and is provided to paying account holders. LingQ does not state any country restrictions or identity checks for sign-up; you just need a LingQ account.
