Student Pricing & Enrollment
School Edition
How billing works, what the average student count means, and how to manage your enrollment
Key Takeaway
ReadnQuiz pricing is based on enrollment—not who takes a quiz. There are no seats or
blocks to buy. You pay for an estimated student count, add and remove students freely throughout
the year, and settle up at renewal based on your average.
How School Edition Pricing Works
ReadnQuiz School Edition billing is designed to be simple and flexible. Instead of purchasing
seats, licenses, or blocks of access, you provide an estimated student count when you subscribe.
We bill based on that estimate, and you are free to add or remove students at any time during the
year without triggering a mid-year invoice.
At renewal time, we compare your average student count during the year with the estimate you
originally provided:
If your average was below your estimate, you receive a credit applied to your renewal.
If your average was above your estimate, you pay a small additional charge
for the overage—at the same per-student rate you were already paying.
This is not a penalty.
An overage charge simply means you pay for the extra students at the same price per student
from your last invoice. You are never penalized for growing, and you are never locked into a
number that doesn't fit.
This model means you will never have to buy a predetermined block of seats, and you will never
be invoiced in the middle of the year. Your billing stays predictable while your enrollment stays
flexible.
Understanding Your Average Student Count
Your average student count is the number we use at renewal to determine whether you were over
or under your original estimate. Here is how it works:
- We take a snapshot of your total enrolled student count every week.
- At the end of your subscription year, we calculate the average of all weekly snapshots.
- We compare that average to the estimate you provided at the beginning of the year.
- The difference determines whether you receive a credit or owe an additional charge.
Because we use an average, students who are enrolled for only part of the year do not count
the same as students enrolled the entire year. This is intentional—you should only pay
proportionally for the time students actually had access.
Example: Average in Action
Scenario
You estimated 300 students at the start of the year. Halfway through, additional classes
join and you add 100 more students.
Because those 100 students were only enrolled for half the year, your average student count
at year's end is 350—not 400.
Result: You would owe an overage charge for 50 students (350 average minus
300 estimate)—not the full 100 you added.
Your Responsibility: Keep Enrollment Current
Important: It is your responsibility to keep your student enrollment up to
date. Your billing is based on total enrolled students—whether or not those students are
assigned to a class, and whether or not they have taken a quiz.
If a student is no longer at your school, or a class has stopped using ReadnQuiz, you should
remove those students from the system. Doing so will lower your average student count and keep
you from being charged for students who are not using the program.
Students who are not assigned to a class cannot take quizzes, so if you see unassigned
students in your account, they are likely candidates for removal.
Already over your estimate on purpose?
If you intentionally added more students because your school needed expanded access, you
can disregard any overage warnings. The additional usage will simply be billed at your
existing per-student rate at renewal.
How to Remove Students in Bulk
After you have assigned all active students to their classes for the year, you may have
leftover students who are unassigned—typically students who transferred, graduated, or
are otherwise no longer at your school. ReadnQuiz makes it easy to clean these up:
- Go to Admin → Assign to Classes.
- Click “View Unassigned Students”.
- Review the list to confirm none of these students should still be in a class.
- Click “Delete Unassigned Students” to remove them all at once.
This single action trims your enrolled count down to only the students actively using
ReadnQuiz, which directly reduces your average and keeps your costs accurate.
Tip: Do this at the start of each school year
After importing or assigning students for the new year, check for unassigned students
right away. Removing former students early in the year prevents them from inflating your
weekly snapshots.
