BalloonBuilder Pricing — Frequently Asked Questions
Can I try BalloonBuilder before I buy?
Yes! Every new account gets a 14-day free trial with limited access — no credit card required. After checking out the tutorial videos and testing the free version, you can activate full access for 1 hour on both the Columns & Arches app and the Walls app (separately). This lets you experience every design mode, export tool, and 3D feature before committing to a plan. Start your free trial →
Can I change my BalloonBuilder plan later?
Absolutely. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time from your account page. When you upgrade, you get immediate access to the new features. When you downgrade, your current plan stays active until the end of the billing period.
What’s the difference between monthly and annual billing?
Annual billing saves you 25–33% compared to monthly billing. Both options include the same features — the only difference is the billing cycle. Annual plans are billed once per year.
What is the balloon tunnel mode?
Tunnel mode is a Full-plan exclusive feature that lets you create walk-through balloon tunnels from your wall designs. Many wall types — including link balloon walls, foil balloon walls, and organic walls — can be converted into tunnels. It’s a unique feature that no other balloon design software offers.
What is auto color mapping?
Auto color mapping is a Full-plan exclusive feature that automatically assigns balloon colors based on a reference photo or image. Upload any image, and BalloonBuilder maps the colors to your balloon wall design — perfect for matching event themes or brand colors. BalloonBuilder’s color palette includes real-world colors from Tuftex, Sempertex, and Kalisan.
Are there any free balloon tools?
Yes! BalloonBuilder offers three free tools that don’t require any subscription: a Balloon Calculator for column/arch sizing, a Helium Calculator for tank and float time estimates, and a Quote Builder for creating professional proposals with PDF export.
Which BalloonBuilder pricing plan is best for beginners?
The Entry plan is a great starting point. It includes 6 column/arch modes, 6 wall modes, all color patterns, and full export capabilities — everything you need to design professional balloon decorations. You can always upgrade to Pro or Full when your business grows.
Do I need the Full plan for LOL balloons?
No — LOL balloon modes (LOL Column, LOL X Column, Simple LOL) are available starting from the Pro plan. The Full plan adds Rainbow LOL arches and the Light Column mode on top of the standard LOL modes.
