Membership FAQ
-
Does a membership include all of my children or do I need to
purchase multiple memberships?
There is no need to purchase more than one membership. You can purchase access for multiple children within your family membership. Each child will have their own account that they can use to sign in and practice math. The program adapts to each child's skill level and will track their progress individually.
Pricing for family memberships starts at just $9.95/month or $79/year. Each additional child costs $2/month or $20/year. For more information or to purchase a family membership, go to http://www.ixl.com/membership/family/pricing and select your desired membership option to view pricing details.
-
Do you offer a trial membership for family users?
We only offer trials for teachers. We don't offer them for family memberships because parents have the option of purchasing a monthly membership instead of committing to a full year. We do allow you to complete up to 20 questions per day for free, so that you can try us out before purchasing a membership.
-
Are the children in my membership restricted to
practicing one grade level?
IXL does not limit children to one grade level. With your membership, your children get access to all the grade levels available on the site!

I don't live in the U.S. Can I purchase a membership?
Of course! IXL is not limited to users in the U.S. We have users in more than 150 countries. You can sign up directly on our website and make payment with your credit card. Our prices are in U.S. dollars, so your credit card company will convert the funds on your statement to your local currency, based on the exchange rate at that time.
If you live in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, or the United Kingdom, IXL offers a customized edition for your country. Prices for these customized editions are quoted in your local currency. You can learn more about international editions of IXL here.

Can I pay in a different currency?

I have a monthly membership and would like to switch to a yearly membership. Can I
apply the payments I made toward the monthly membership to a yearly membership?

If I cancel my membership, will I receive a pro-rated credit?
Unfortunately, we do not offer pro-rated refunds or credits for any partially used membership periods. You may cancel your IXL membership at any time. Once you have canceled your membership, your credit card will not be charged again. You will continue to have access to the program until the current billing period ends.

state standards aligned to my account?
