FAQ

The Planner Box™

Why are you making these changes?

I explain it all in the video above! The short version: in our September poll, about 6 in 10 of you said you'd rather have a lower price than a big featured item, and 7 in 10 said the decorative pieces matter most. This new box gives you exactly that: a simpler box at a lower price, so more of you can say yes every month. And it's one we can keep making well for years to come.

What's changing with the monthly planner subscription?

We're taking the best parts of the Monthly Cover Club and the Planner Lifestyle Box and making ONE box: The Planner Box™ by Jane's Agenda®. One box. One price. $49.95 a month, starting with your December 1 charge. We're so excited about it!

What comes in The Planner Box?

The Planner Box is what we think is the perfect blend of the Monthly Cover Club and the Lifestyle box. Here are examples of what you'll get:

  • A planner cover (from our new manufacturer, and MUCH more resilient)
  • Cardstock
  • Something to find your spot, like a page finder, a hybrid or tabbed dashboard, or a divider
  • A planner insert
  • Quote cards

The items will rotate a bit from month to month, but the value and the number of items stay the same. That keeps your planner stash from getting overwhelming, and you're always getting something new and fresh, right when you need it.

Calendar pages aren't included. You can still buy those separately, whenever you want them.

Is there AI-generated art in the box?

Never. Starting with the December 1 charge, there will never be AI-generated art in The Planner Box. This is important to us, and we know it's important to you. You'll find a mix of contemporary small artists and vintage pieces, some from centuries ago.

Will I know what's in the box before I'm charged?

Yes! You'll always get a preview ahead of time, so you can see what's in the box and decide whether to skip.

Are there still planner inserts?

Yes, every month. They just won't follow a monthly theme anymore. Because of that, they'll be useful wherever you are in your life and your planning. We'll make them decorative whenever we can (and not just note lines!).

What happened to the featured item?

We're still making them, and they're still really cool! Now they're sold separately, so you get to choose. You won't be charged for something you might not love.

We already have releases planned for early next year that go gorgeously with your box.

Why does the box packaging look different?

Custom boxes each month cost a LOT, and removing them is one of the ways we can give you this lower price. Your box will now come in a branded Jane's Agenda box that stays mostly the same from month to month.

Why doesn't the box have a month name anymore?

Because the boxes won't always be themed for one month. Some will be more neutral, or work all year. So instead of "the January box," we'll just say "the box charging December 1."

Nobody loses a box in the switch. The box charging December 1 is the one you would have called the January box.

Price and sizes

How much is The Planner Box?

$49.95 a month, for every size: Mini, Junior, Classic and Letter.

Does my price change if I switch sizes?

Nope! Before, moving from a Mini to a Classic raised your price. Now it's the same price no matter which size you get, so you can switch whenever you want.

Can I change my size or add items before my first box?

Yes! You'll have until November 30 to change your size for your first box, and until November 30 to add shop items to your subscription (Last Chance items excluded).

I'm a Lifestyle subscriber. What happens to me?

You'll move to The Planner Box automatically at $49.95, starting with your December 1 charge. You don't need to do anything.

I'm a Cover Club subscriber. What happens to me?

You'll move to The Planner Box at $49.95, starting with your December 1 charge. Your price is going up, so here's what you get for it.

Today you get a cover, two cardstock pieces and a page finder. The Planner Box adds a planner insert every month and more cardstock, plus extras like quote cards. And U.S. shipping is included.

If it's not the right fit for you, you can cancel before December 1 and you won't be charged.

One subscription per person

Why can I only have one subscription now?

Honestly, this one is about keeping the business healthy. Many subscribers held several boxes but only took one or two each month. We buy products for every reserved box, every month, so that left us with HUNDREDS of extra products each month. We can't keep doing that and keep prices where they are.

I have more than one subscription. What do I need to do?

On November 9, we'll convert your subscription to The Planner Box. If you have more than one, we'll do our best to keep the one we can tell you love most. We'll email you to let you know exactly what we've done.

Can I still get more than one design?

There's a good chance, yes! Every subscriber has a box set aside each month. When someone skips, their box goes into our subscribers-only section.

Skipped boxes are offered to subscribers around the third Friday of each month. You'll have until the end of the month to grab any extras, first come, first served, at your regular subscriber price. After that, they open to the public at full price. Shipping isn't included on these extra boxes, but you can add other shop items to reach our $100 free shipping threshold.

Can I buy just one piece from the box?

No, and this is a big change! Box items are never sold separately. Extra boxes are only sold as complete kits, so you can't wait and grab just the cover later.

It also means you can't add a single extra piece from the box to your order like before. Everything is sold as a complete set.

Can I still skip?

Yes! If you don't love the theme, skip the box. We're also getting rid of the rule that removed you after 3 skips in a row.

What happens to my subscriber access if I skip?

Each month's subscriber benefits are built around that month's theme. So starting December 1, if you skip a month, you won't have access to the subscribers-only section that month, and you won't be able to buy that month's extra boxes at the subscriber price.

Your spot is still saved for you! Your access comes right back with your next paid box.

Billing and shipping

When will I be charged?

Still on the 1st, like always. Your first charge at the new price is December 1.

Will my box ship faster?

We expect so! We're moving to a third-party warehouse because they can ship much faster than we can in-house. We expect subscriptions to ship around the 7th to the 10th of each month going forward.

What's happening to Free Ship Friday?

The last Free Ship Friday is November 13. Here's what's coming in its place: you'll be able to add anything from the shop to your subscription order, so it all ships together with free shipping (or reduced shipping for international) and charges on the 1st with your box. (Last Chance items can't be added to your box.)

We're finishing the details now, and we'll share them as soon as they're ready.

Can I still add items to my box the way I used to?

Not right now. The new way to add shop items to your subscription is on its way (see the Free Ship Friday answer above).

I'm an international subscriber. What about shipping?

We'll email you the shipping rate for your country privately. Because the new box is smaller, we hope your rate goes down. We'll confirm it with you directly.

Planner Perks

Is Planner Perks going away?

Nope! Planner Perks is staying. There's just one change, and it's tied to the new box (see below).

Will I still earn Perks points on my subscription?

Not anymore. Starting with the box charging December 1, subscription orders won't earn Perks points. The new box is priced lower, and at that price there just isn't room to add points on top.

You'll still earn points on your shop orders, just like always.

Is there anything new for subscribers?

Yes! We're rolling out a brand new loyalty program just for subscribers. It's based on participation, not how much you spend, because some of you have been with me for years, and that's what I want to reward.
