Question 1

What curriculum does Chamelingo use?

Accepted Answer

A structured curriculum from Hangul basics to intermediate conversation. 16,000+ exercises with native speaker audio. Each unit builds on the last.

Question 2

Is Chamelingo free?

Accepted Answer

Start with a 7-day free trial that includes full Pro access. Our grammar reference and vocabulary browser at /learn are also free for everyone. Pro ($12.99/mo) unlocks the full curriculum, Arena, AI voice tutor, K-Drama & K-Pop content, and exam prep.

Question 3

What is the Arena mode?

Accepted Answer

Real-time 1v1 and 2v2 Korean quiz battles. Ranked seasons with leagues from Bronze to Grandmaster. Matches last 2-3 minutes and you earn points for speed and accuracy.

Question 4

How does spaced repetition work?

Accepted Answer

The FSRS algorithm tracks how well you know each word and shows it again right before you'd forget it. You review less over time as words move into long-term memory.

Question 5

Can I practice speaking Korean?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Call the AI tutor mid-lesson for real-time voice conversations. Ask questions, get pronunciation feedback, or just practice speaking at your level. Every exercise also has native speaker audio.

Question 6

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

All major credit and debit cards via Stripe (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, and more), plus Apple Pay and Google Pay on web, and in-app purchase on iOS and Android. Cancel anytime.

Question 7

What happens to my progress if I cancel?

Accepted Answer

Everything is saved. Your access ends but we keep all exercise history, flashcard decks, and stats. Re-subscribe later and pick up where you left off.

Question 8

Do I need to know Hangul to start?

Accepted Answer

No. Unit 1 teaches Hangul from scratch: letter recognition, syllable blocks, then simple words. You'll be reading Korean by the end of it.

Question 9

How is Chamelingo different from Duolingo?

Accepted Answer

We're built specifically for Korean, with grammar taught explicitly, ranked real-time multiplayer battles, and an AI voice tutor included in Pro. Duolingo's comparable Video Call is locked behind its pricier Max tier, and it doesn't offer Korean-specific exam prep or live ranked play.

Question 10

Can I import my Anki flashcard decks?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Anki (.apkg), CSV, and other common formats. You can also auto-generate decks from any lesson content with the AI deck builder.

Question 11

Is there a lifetime purchase option?

Accepted Answer

Lifetime purchases are currently paused while we review the offer. Existing lifetime members keep their permanent access.

Question 12

What devices can I use Chamelingo on?

Accepted Answer

Any device with a web browser: desktop, tablet, or phone. Progress syncs across all devices. A native mobile app is in development.
