ClassDojo Pricing<\/h2>\n

Pricing Plans<\/h3>\n

The core ClassDojo app is always free for teachers, students, and parents. ClassDojo offers an optional paid plan called ClassDojo Plus, which adds at-home reward tools and extra features. Pricing varies by country, but as an example ClassDojo Plus<\/a> historically started at about $7.99 per month or $59.99 per year<\/strong>. In January 2024 ClassDojo announced new pricing: $15.49 per month or $109.99 per year<\/strong> for existing members. (Always check the official site for current regional prices.) The annual plan offers a discount versus monthly billing. Students and parents get a 7-day free trial of ClassDojo Plus before paying.<\/p>\n

User Feedback on Pricing<\/h3>\n

Some user reviews note the ClassDojo Plus cost. A parent wrote that they \u201cdo not like the price\u201d and hoped more features would be free. In general, free users have access to core class updates and messaging, so the paid cost only applies to extra at-home reward activities. There are no hidden fees beyond the published subscription cost. Schools and parents do not need to pay anything unless they choose the Plus plan.<\/a><\/p>\n

Free Trial and Refund Policy<\/h3>\n

ClassDojo provides a one-week free trial<\/a> of ClassDojo Plus so families can try it out. The company states that you can cancel anytime before the trial ends to avoid charges. Note that ClassDojo\u2019s policy is that all fees are non-refundable<\/strong><\/a>. In other words, once a subscription renews, you cannot get a refund. Tutor and app store policies also typically do not allow refunds. Customers should check ClassDojo\u2019s terms and contact support if they have questions.<\/p>\n
