Occasionally, you may want to pause your subscription instead of outright canceling your subscription. Having the option to pause instead of cancel is a great way to remain subscribed without being billed for the time that you aren't using your subscription.

You may want to pause your subscription for the following reasons:

- going out of town

- won't be accessing the subscription for a period of time

- aren't using the service as frequently

During the time that your subscription is paused, you are not billed. You also won't be able to log in to the Social Learning Platform.

First, click on the user icon in the top right of the page and click Settings.

Then, go to the Billing tab of the settings screen, and open the Billing Portal.

Once inside the billing portal, click the name of your subscription.

Click Pause Subscription.

The system will send a message that your subscription will be paused immediately and that it will resume after 90 days. Click Pause Subscription to confirm.

Currently, we have two types of billing cycles - monthly and yearly.

Monthly billing cycles

Recurring payments are collected on the same day of the month. If the initial recurring payment falls on the 31st, the system eventually adjusts the billing cycle to the 1st of the month for months with less than 31 days.

Yearly billing cycles

Our yearly subscriptions are not based on the school year (as the latter differs for everyone). Recurring payments are collected on the same month and day each year. If the initial recurring payment falls on February 29th of a leap year, the system adjusts the billing cycle to February 28th or March 1st the following year.

You can view your subscription type and billing cycle by going into the Billing Portal.

First, click on the user icon in the top right of the page and click Settings.

Then, go to the Billing tab of the settings screen, and click on View Billing Portal.

You should now be able to see your subscription plan and billing cycle type.

If your credit card has sufficient funds and hasn't expired, the most likely reason that your payment was unsuccessful was that it was blocked on your bank's end. In this situation, we have no control over their decision to block the card. We have 2 really quick solutions for this:

1. We can send you a secure link to enter a new payment method - you can enter a new card there and we can try to run the charge again. Please reach out to us to request this link.

2. You can call the number on the back of your credit card and ask them why they blocked the charge. You can verify that it was a legitimate purchase and ask them to unblock it so we can run it again.

Note: If you are using a school credit card or "p card", you may have to speak to an administrator about making us an approved vendor. Each district has its own policies. If we can help in any way during this process, please let us know by reaching out to our support team.

Each paid plan includes a free 30-day trial. When you sign up for a paid plan, your card is not immediately charged because your subscription is still within the free 30-day trial. The charge will be initiated once your free trial ends.

If you need the subscription to be billed immediately, please reach out to our support team and we can end the trial and initiate the charge. You'll automatically get a receipt once the charge goes through.

Under normal circumstances, you can only sign up for a single free trial.  This free trial is good for one month and is only available to new customers. It does not apply to returning customers.
