What is Bkool
Overview
Bkool is a subscription-based platform that provides virtual cycling simulations, structured workouts, and route imports for indoor training.
It is designed for riders who want immersive graphics, multiplayer rides, and training tools across web and mobile apps.
Main features
Features include simulated routes, workout plans, route importing (GPX), and compatibility with smart trainers and sensors.
Subscriptions are available through Bkool's website and via mobile stores (Apple App Store, Google Play).
How to cancel Bkool
Cancel via the Bkool website
- Log into Bkool.com.
- Click your profile, select "My subscription", then click "Unsubscribe".
- The subscription remains active until the stated end date; further charges stop after that date.
Cancel via mobile stores
- App Store (iOS): Subscriptions purchased via Apple must be canceled through your Apple ID subscription settings.

- If you purchased through a third-party vendor (e.g., Decathlon), follow that vendor’s cancellation process.
What happens when you cancel
Access and billing
After you cancel, your subscription stays active until the subscription end date shown in your account.
No further recurring charges will be taken after the end date unless you re-subscribe.
Data and account
Your account, ride history and settings typically remain on Bkool unless you request deletion per their terms.
Export any personal GPX or workout files you want to keep before requesting account removal.
Will I get a refund?
General refund rules
- Monthly subscriptions (all channels): No refunds are possible.
- Annual and Family subscriptions purchased directly from Bkool: Refunds available within the first 14 days of the initial charge, subject to a refund request via Bkool’s refund form.
- Purchases made via third-party channels (e.g., app stores, retailers): Refunds are handled by the third party and are not refundable through Bkool.
How to request a refund
If you believe you qualify (direct annual/family plan within 14 days), submit a refund request through Bkool’s published refund form or support channel.
Keep receipts or proof of purchase handy when you submit a refund request.

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Cooling-off and refunds
South African consumer law (Consumer Protection Act) does not mandate a cooling-off period for digital subscriptions provided immediately.
Refunds and withdrawal rights for Bkool subscriptions are therefore governed by Bkool’s published terms unless Apple or Google store policies provide additional recourse.
Where to escalate
If you believe your rights under South African consumer law were breached, you can seek guidance from local consumer protection bodies or legal advice.
Store-level disputes (App Store/Google Play) are handled through the respective platform’s mechanisms.

Common mistakes
Cancelling in the wrong place
Many users try to cancel on the Bkool website although the subscription was purchased via Apple or Google.

Users sometimes expect refunds after cancelling monthly subscriptions; Bkool’s policy is that monthly plans are non-refundable.
Check the specific purchase channel policy before assuming a refund is possible.
