Terms of service

Spelling.School is a subscription service operated by Innovista Digital LLC, 5830 E 2nd St, Ste 7000 #10661, Casper, WY 82609, USA. By creating an account you agree to these terms. Last changed 1 November 2026.

Your account

One person per account. You must be 13 or older to make one; a younger child uses an account a parent makes, or is added to a Family or Classroom plan by a parent or teacher. You are responsible for keeping your login private. You can delete your account at any time from Settings; deletion is immediate and complete, and we email you a copy of your practice history first.

Your free days and the Free plan

Every new account starts with 14 days of everything Pro has (people who joined from our interest-list email get 3 months). No card is asked for. When the days end, the account moves to the Free plan by itself and nothing is charged. Free stays free: every review of a word you have started, forever, plus 3 new words a day at your own level and one topic list of your choice.

Pro: prices and tax

Pro is $95 a year or $15 a month. Visitors from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the Philippines, Egypt and Indonesia see a lower price in their own currency on the pricing page, and that is the price they pay. Prices include any sales tax or VAT: the price on the site is the total. Checkout may show the amount converted into your currency at that day's rate, and your bank may add its own fees.

Taking Pro while you still have free days

Your free days are never lost by buying. If you take Pro while you still have some, your card goes on file at checkout and the first payment is taken when they end. The yearly button that says "$0 today" works the same way, with at least 14 days before the first payment. Cancel before that date and you pay nothing. If you have no free days left, the first payment is taken at checkout. Checkout shows the date of your first payment before you confirm.

Renewal and cancelling

Pro renews automatically, every year or every month at the price you signed up at, until you cancel. Cancel any time in Settings, in one click; you keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for and are not charged again.

Payments and refunds

Payments go through Stripe, using Stripe Managed Payments: Stripe charges your card, works out and pays any tax, and sends your receipts. Your card statement may show the name Innovista Digital. If Pro is not for you, email hello@spelling.school within 14 days of your first payment and we refund it in full, no questions asked. Refunds go back to the card you paid with.

The Retake Guarantee

If your spelling score does not go up, you pay nothing for Pro. How it works: (1) before you start, take the IELTS Trap Test (spelling.school/test) or the five words on the homepage, and keep your score; (2) finish 20 practice sessions in your first 30 days of Pro, counted from the day you took Pro at checkout; (3) take the same test again. If your score has not gone up, email hello@spelling.school with both scores. We check the 20 sessions in your account, refund every cent you paid for Pro, and keep your account on Pro free of charge, with no further payments, until your score has gone up. We cannot practise for you, so the 20 sessions are the one condition.

Family and Classroom

Family is $149 a year, or $19 a month, for up to six learners. Classroom is $195 a year for one class of up to 35 students, the teacher included. The person who pays manages the plan and adds each learner by first name and a four-digit PIN, with no email address; a teacher first confirms that the school or the parents allow it. Everyone in the plan has Pro while it is paid. The yearly Family plan and the Classroom plan start with 14 days free: the card goes on file and the first payment is taken on day 14 unless you cancel. Family monthly is charged at checkout. Renewal, cancelling, refunds and tax work as for Pro above.

Content

Word lists, recordings and lessons are ours or licensed to us. Your own word lists are yours. We may use anonymised practice data to improve the schedule and the content.

Availability

We aim for the service to be available all the time and make no guarantee. Our liability is limited to the amount you paid in the last twelve months.
