Common questions

Do I need an account to read?

No. 16 articles are free to read with no signup, no card, no email. Membership unlocks the rest of the library, audio, the AI, comments, cheat sheets, and a new article every day.

What is in the free articles?

The articles every football parent needs first. Age guides, registration questions, what fees actually pay for, how to spot a good club, how to read your kid's pathway. The bedrock stuff.

Can I cancel my membership?

Yes, any time. You keep access until the end of your current billing period, then drop back to visitor reading. No fees, no questions.

How much is membership?

$4.95 a month, billed monthly in AUD. Prefer to pay yearly? Choose $49/year at checkout and save $10. Cancel anytime.

How often does new content go live?

A new article every day. Members see every article the day it publishes. The free 16 are the launch set and stay free forever.

Who's behind USI?

No corporate backing, no club affiliation, no sponsorship. USI is independent on purpose, with no governing body, state body, or club to protect. Just parents getting straight answers in plain English.

Is my information safe?

Payments go through Stripe, the same provider used by Apple, Amazon, and most Australian businesses. USI never sees your card. Your email is used for the newsletter and account access only, never sold or shared.
