After you buy

The download opens straight away, and again whenever you need it.

Payment goes through the same secure checkout as the classes — cards, PayPal and local methods, in USD. Your link arrives by email as well, so the file is never trapped on one device. Trouble with a file? Write to hello@talkwithabby.com and Abby will send it by hand.

Because the file is delivered at once, a book is non-refundable once the download has been opened — but a faulty file is always replaced or refunded. Full details are in the terms of service.
