Studyclix Plus

The following terms and conditions apply to users who upgrade to a paid Studyclix Plus account:

Studyclix Plus gives paid users access to content unavailable to Studyclix Basic users. The list of content available to each account type is available at www.studyclix.co.za/account/pricing. The items on this list may change at any time and is at the discretion of Lighthouse Learning Limited.

A yearly (R495) upgrade allows you to access all Plus content in your selected subjects until 31st of December of the year in which purchase is made (i.e. the end of the academic school year). A user may not share their account information with other users. This would constitute of a breach of these terms of use.

Existing Studyclix Plus users who have elected to pay monthly are permitted to continue to pay monthly at a price of R50 per month.

A Studyclix Plus account does not facilitate more than one user logging in to that account at any one time. A Studyclix Plus account only facilitates access to the subjects selected on that account. These subjects must reflect your year and with a maximum number of 10 subjects being selected.

Once payment has been confirmed, a user will gain access to Studyclix Plus content within a period not exceeding 24 hours.

A user may cancel their account at any time.

In the case of a teacher purchasing a yearly upgrade on behalf of their students, access to all Studyclix Plus content will be granted until the end of the academic school year (December 31st). The codes issued to a teacher are only valid for the quantity of upgrades purchased and it is the sole responsibility of the teacher to distribute these codes to the students who have paid for such codes.

In the case of a school purchasing an upgrade on behalf of the students in their school, access to all Studyclix Plus content will be granted for the period agreed on the invoice and begins from the date on which payment for the upgrade is received. The codes issued to a school are only valid for the quantity of upgrades agreed at time of purchase and it is the sole responsibility of the school to distribute these codes to the relevant students.
