How to Activate an Inactive Monthly or Yearly Subscription

Updated on

Monthly and Yearly Subscriptions become inactive once the subscription is canceled, or — if auto-renew has been turned off — once the expiration date has passed. Parents can activate student's inactive subscriptions through their Parent Account page.

This guide covers how to activate an inactive Monthly or Yearly Subscription.

Before continuing, ensure the following:

  • Your subscription is inactive or expired rather than active
  • You'd like to order a Monthly or Yearly Subscription and don't need a full level of printed books

2. Select Activate

On your Parent Account page:

  1. Locate the student whose subscription you'd like to activate
  2. Select Activate in the student's subscription settings

Note: If you have no Activate button under an inactive subscription, that most likely means that you signed that student up for an Art of Problem Solving (AoPS) Academy class that uses Beast Academy curriculum. If this is the case for your student, you can contact us for more information on what to do.

3. Select Subscription Type

On the Subscribe page:

  1. Select Monthly or Yearly
  2. Note the renewal schedule
  3. Select Continue

Note: The process for converting an inactive Monthly or Yearly Subscription to a Bundle is slightly different than what's outlined in this guide.
