Yes - the bank is maintained against the current exam outline, and questions are revised when the exam changes.

No. Every plan is a single one-time payment for a fixed access window. Nothing renews, and no card details are stored for future charges.
Match it to your exam date: Final Review (2 days) for an exam in the next day or two, Fast Track (7 days) for an exam this week, Pass Confidence (6 weeks) for a structured run-up. See plans and pricing.
For most countries, the price you see is exactly what you pay - tax is already included. Where local law requires it to be added separately, it's shown clearly at checkout before you pay, so there are never any surprise fees.
Access is instant after payment and runs for your plan's full window from that moment. When the window ends, your local progress stays on your device - you can buy another window any time and pick up where you left off.
Yes - the whole platform is built mobile-first: practice, mistake review, and analytics all work on any phone, tablet, or laptop with a browser. Nothing to install.
Every answer feeds your per-topic accuracy, readiness score, and weak-area list. Instead of re-reading everything, you drill the study topics that need more practice - that's what moves a score in days, not months.
Make sure you're signed in with the same email you used at checkout - access activates within a minute of payment. If it still doesn't appear, email support@boardmentor.study and it will be sorted out.
Yes - 24/7 chat support, right from the chat bubble in the corner of every page: instant answers about plans, access, billing, and your prep. Prefer email? Write to support@boardmentor.study and a real person will reply.
