Sign up and Log in
If this happens, it's probably because you're trying to use the paid sign-up link for the public on our website. Use the unique sign-up link your company received (contact your financial adviser, HR, or benefits team) to gain free access to Podplan. Once you sign up using this link, our website will allow you to log in without requiring payment details.
There are no minimum-term commitments. You can cancel your subscription at any time but we are confident that you won't want to!
The price you sign up for is the price you'll continue to pay, even if our subscription rates increase in the future. Should you decide to cancel and then decide to rejoin, you will be required to pay the current price that appears on our website. We reserve the right to change the prices for PodPlanPlus and charge you at the displayed rate at the time of purchase.
If you began signing up but stopped at the payment screen, your sign-up attempt may be marked as "abandoned," preventing your free access link from working. To resolve this, email us at support@mypodplan.co.uk and request the deletion of your details. After we confirm the deletion, clear your browser’s cache and sign up again using your company’s free access link.

Members add PodPlanPlus for various reasons—whether to review their planning tasks or to seek advice on navigating a specific situation. Please note that we do not provide medical, financial planning, or legal advice (except via PodLegal for the creation of Wills and Powers of Attorney).
We are not qualified to offer medical advice. However, we can help you understand what kind of support you can expect from local authorities and the NHS.
We are not a regulated financial advisory firm, so we don’t offer personalised financial advice. Our content is designed to provide general information, such as the costs of care services and tools to help you begin planning for support. If needed, we can connect you with financial advisers who specialise in later-life funding and can offer tailored advice.
