Ways to Save on Subscriptions and Books

Updated on

We've designed several ways to save when it comes to enrolling in Beast Academy Online (BA Online) and purchasing books. While we don't offer promotions that are specific to homeschooling families or veterans, there are several offerings listed in this guide for any family to consider.

This guide covers the discounts available to all of our customers.

Note: If you're a K-12 teacher or administrator looking to bring Beast Academy to your school, visit the Educators page on our website to learn more about our offerings.

How to Try Beast Academy Online (BA Online)

There are two ways to try BA Online:

  • Our demo
  • Sign your student up for a Monthly or Yearly Subscription and cancel within the 14-day cancellation period

Demo

Using a desktop, laptop, or tablet device try our demo with your student to see example lessons, read parts of the digital Guide books, and watch a few selected videos.

14-Day Cancellation Period for Monthly and Yearly Subscriptions

You can also sign your student up for a Monthly or Yearly Subscription to BA Online and cancel it within 14 days of purchase for a refund.

Yearly Subscription Discount

When compared with 12 months of the Monthly Subscription ($191.88/year), purchasing a Yearly Subscription ($99.99/year) provides you with a savings of $91.89/year.

Free Shipping for Bundles and Orders With $100 or More in Books

Note: Free shipping isn't available to U.S. overseas territories or international shipments.

U.S. Economy Shipping is free for Bundles and orders with $100 or more in books, including qualified combined shipments.

Give 3, Get 3 (Referral Program)

Note:

  • This program is only valid for students with Yearly Subscriptions or the 1-year subscription included in Bundles
  • Give 3, Get 3 coupon codes can only be redeemed by parents who are new to BA Online

Summary

If you have a student with a Yearly Subscription or Bundle, two weeks into their subscription you'll receive an email from [email protected] with the subject line "Give 3, Get 3!" This email will provide you with a coupon code that you can share with up to 10 others. When a parent who is new to Beast Academy applies your code to their first Yearly Subscription or Bundle order, their student will receive 15 months of access, and your student's subscription will be extended by three additional months.

Offer Details

Subscription extensions are only good towards Yearly Subscriptions and Bundles. An extension can't be applied to new subscription purchases, previous payments, or Monthly Subscriptions.

The coupon codes are only valid while the referring student's BA Online subscription is active; they expire the day after the referring student's subscription expires. Limit one per customer for up to 10 new customers.

AoPS Incorporated (hereafter called "Beast Academy") reserves the right to withhold or deduct extensions obtained through any use of your student's subscription by you or any other user in the event Beast Academy determines that the use was in error, fraudulent, or in violation of the terms above. For questions, email [email protected].

Sibling Discount

If you already have an active Monthly or Yearly Subscription to BA Online and want to add more subscriptions, we offer a sibling discount on additional subscriptions of the same type:

Monthly Subscriptions Yearly Subscriptions
  • $15.99/month for the first Student Subscription
  • $10.99/month for each additional sibling under the same Parent Account (up to six total active subscriptions)
  • $99.99/year for the first Student Subscription
  • $64.99/year for each additional sibling under the same Parent Account (up to six total active subscriptions)

While we don't offer sibling discounts for multiple Bundles under one Parent Account, if you have an active Bundle under your Parent Account and then add a Yearly Subscription, you'll receive the discounted sibling price on the Yearly Subscription ($64.99/year). This is because the Bundle includes a 1-year subscription.

Note: Your existing subscription must be active in order for the sibling discount to apply. Parent Accounts are limited to six active subscriptions.

Bundle Discount

Bundles provide a discount on a full level of printed Beast Academy books (between $100 – $120 before Bundle discount) together with a 1-year subscription ($99.99/year before Bundle discount) for a total of $160. Ordering a full level of printed books and 1-year subscription together through a Bundle provides you with a savings of between $39.99 – $59.99.

While there's no sibling discount for multiple Bundles under one Parent Account, if you have an active Bundle, you're able to take advantage of the sibling discount by adding a Yearly Subscription for another student to your Parent Account for $64.99/year.

As discussed in the Sibling Discount section of this guide, we don't offer sibling discounts for multiple Bundles under one Parent Account. However, if you have an active Bundle under your Parent Account and then add a Yearly Subscription, you'll receive the discounted sibling price on the Yearly Subscription ($64.99/year). This is because the Bundle includes a 1-year subscription.

Bulk Book Discount

We offer bulk discounts for orders of five or more copies of a single book (for example, five or more copies of Beast Academy Math Practice 3C). This allows multiple parents to team up and order books at a discounted price. 

Items Purchased Savings
Five or more copies of a single book title 10%
10 or more copies of a single book title 20%

How to Order Books in Bulk

A representative from your group will need to purchase the books in one order and identify a single shipping address for the books. From there, your group can distribute the books among each other.

  • Who will be the point of contact for all order communications from our team
    • We can't communicate regarding this order to anyone other than the designated point of contact

Save With Friends

Items Purchased Savings

10 or more Yearly Subscription codes 20%

How to Purchase Save With Friends Subscription Codes

A representative from your group will need to purchase the subscription codes in one initial order. From there, the subscription codes can be distributed to everyone in your group for them to redeem when they place their orders.

1. Determine Point of Contact and Credit Card

Our website requires standard information for each order, including the original order of the subscription codes.

5. Share Subscription Codes

Once you complete the order, you'll receive the coupon codes via the email you provided during your order. You can then share these with others in your group.

6. Redeem Subscription Codes

Each member of your group will need to redeem their subscription code individually. Depending on whether the parent and student already have active BA Online accounts and subscriptions, there are two different ways that parents will redeem their subscription code.

If the Parent Already Has a Student With a BA Online Subscription:

The redeeming parent will use the Redemption page to apply their Save With Friends subscription code to an existing student's subscription. This will extend their student's subscription one year past their subscription's current expiration date and keep their progress.

If the Parent and Student Are New to BA Online:

The redeeming parent must create a Parent Account through our Redemption page. They'll then follow the steps to redeem their code.

Note: Once a code has been redeemed for a subscription, it can't be canceled or transferred.
