Billing FAQ

How does the free trial work?

Both SchoolBolts and ClassBolts Pro offer 30-day free trials with full access to all features. No credit card required to start. Cancel anytime during the trial period with no charges.

What happens after the trial?

At the end of your 30-day trial, you'll be prompted to enter payment information to continue. If you don't upgrade, your account will revert to the free tier (ClassBolts) or be paused (SchoolBolts) with all data retained for 90 days.

Do you offer monthly billing?

SchoolBolts is annual billing only to match school budget cycles. ClassBolts Pro is also annual ($249/year), which saves you money compared to monthly subscriptions.

Can we pay with a purchase order?

Yes! We accept purchase orders from schools and districts. Contact us at billing@bolteducation.com to arrange PO payment.

What's included in the per-school price?

All plans are per-school with unlimited staff users. There are no per-user fees. SchoolBolts Small has a 150-student limit; SchoolBolts Core is unlimited. ClassBolts Pro includes all teachers at your school.

Do you offer discounts for small districts?

Yes! If you're managing 3+ schools, contact us for volume pricing and centralized administration. We offer significant discounts for district-wide deployments.

Can we switch plans mid-year?

Absolutely. You can upgrade from Small to Core at any time (we'll prorate the difference). Downgrading takes effect at your next renewal.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover) via Stripe, as well as purchase orders for schools and districts.

What happens if we cancel?

You retain access to your account through the end of your billing period. Your data is archived and available for download for 90 days. You can reactivate at any time to restore full access.

Are there setup fees or contracts?

No setup fees, no long-term contracts. All plans are annual subscriptions that you can cancel at any time (effective at the end of your billing period).
