Frequently asked questions
Is NowIRead really free for parents and teachers?
Yes! Parent and teacher accounts are completely free, forever. You can view progress, message teachers, approve books, and set custom rewards with no cost.
What's the difference between monthly and annual?
The annual plan is $100/year ($8.33/mo), saving you $140 compared to paying $20/month. Both include the same features and a 7-day free trial.
What happens after the 7-day free trial?
After the trial, students need a paid subscription ($20/mo or $100/yr) to continue accessing AI quizzes, the points system, and reading level tracking. You can cancel anytime.
Who pays for the student subscription?
Adults do. Parents pay from the parent dashboard, and teachers can pay for students or send payment invite links to parents. Students cannot pay directly unless they are 18+.
Is NowIRead COPPA compliant?
Yes. For students under 13, we require verifiable parental consent before account creation.
Can I get a discount for multiple students?
Parents and teachers can manage multiple students from one account. Each student requires their own subscription, but you only need one parent or teacher account (free).
