Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 23 October 2026

These terms apply when you use the Blue Mac website and the Blue Mac app ("Blue Mac", "we", "us"). By creating an account or paying for Blue Mac you agree to them. Please read them carefully, especially the parts in the highlighted boxes.

1. Who we are

Blue Mac is run by Blue Mac Strategy, a sole proprietorship based in Cape Town, South Africa. Our contact details are at the bottom of this page.

2. What Blue Mac is

Blue Mac is an online trading education and trade-planning platform. A membership gives you access to:

• Blue Mac University: lessons, quizzes and certificates;
• uTrade Ideas: guided questions that turn your own chart analysis into a trade plan (entries, stop loss, targets and lot size), plus AI-written notes when that feature is switched on;
• a strategy builder, practice runs, a daily challenge and a trading journal.

Blue Mac is a digital service. Nothing physical is delivered.

4. Who can join

You must be 18 or older to create an account. You must give us a real email address and keep your login details private.

5. Your account is personal

A membership is for one person. You may not share your login, resell access, or let anyone else use your account. We may suspend accounts that are shared.

6. Price and payment

• Blue Mac costs R499 per month, in South African rand. This is the full price. Blue Mac Strategy is not VAT-registered, so no VAT is added.
• You pay one month in advance. Your monthly period starts on the day your payment is received (for members who joined before launch, on the launch date of 4 November 2026).
• You can pay by EFT now. Card payments will be processed by our payment provider, PayFast. Your card details are entered on PayFast's secure payment page. Blue Mac never sees or stores your card number.
• If we change the price, we will tell you at least 30 days before it applies to you. You can cancel before then.

7. Getting access (delivery)

Once your payment has cleared, we send your invite link by WhatsApp or email, normally within one business day. You register with the email you gave us, and your access starts as soon as you log in.

8. Cancelling and refunds

You can cancel at any time and you will not be charged again. Payments already made are not refunded. The full rules are in our Refund & Cancellation Policy, which forms part of these terms.

9. Our content

All lessons, diagrams, questions, strategies, software and branding in Blue Mac belong to Blue Mac Strategy. Your membership lets you use them for your own learning only. You may not copy, record, share, resell or publish Blue Mac content, or try to copy or reverse-engineer the app.

10. Fair use

Don't misuse Blue Mac: no hacking, scraping, overloading the service, uploading anything unlawful, or using it to give advice to others for a fee. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms. If we close your account for a serious breach, payments already made are not refunded.

11. Availability and changes

We keep improving Blue Mac, so features, lessons and limits (for example, the number of AI ideas per day) can change. Some features, including AI-written notes, depend on outside providers and may be paused from time to time. We aim to keep Blue Mac available at all times but cannot promise it will never be interrupted.

12. Responsibility

To the extent the law allows, Blue Mac is provided "as is", and Blue Mac Strategy is not responsible for trading losses, lost profits or any indirect loss arising from your use of Blue Mac. If we are found responsible for any loss, our total responsibility is limited to the membership fees you paid in the month before the event. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under the Consumer Protection Act or the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act that cannot legally be excluded.

13. Your information

How we collect and protect your personal information is explained in our Privacy Policy.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If a change affects you materially, we will tell you by email or WhatsApp before it applies.

15. South African law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa.
