How to Convert an Inactive Monthly or Yearly Subscription to a Bundle

Updated on

While Monthly and Yearly Subscriptions are set to auto-renew, some parents decide to turn off auto-renew. In this case, once the month or year ends, the subscription becomes inactive. Parents who want to renew their student's Beast Academy Online (BA Online) access and order a full level of printed books can convert their student's inactive Monthly or Yearly Subscription to a Bundle through their Parent Account page.

This guide covers how to convert your student's inactive Monthly or Yearly Subscription to a Bundle.

Before placing your order, ensure the following:

  • Your student's Monthly or Yearly Subscription is inactive rather than active
  • You'd like a 1-year subscription to BA Online as well 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 an inactive subscription has no Activate button, 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.

On the Subscribe page:

  1. Select Bundle
  2. Using the Book Level dropdown, specify the level of printed books that you'd like to order as part of your Bundle
  3. Select Continue

Tip: We have resources to help you determine your student's level.
