How do students pay for the webtext?

Options for completing a webtext purchase

Written by Alyssa

Depending on the school, there are a few options for your students to purchase their webtext. The steps below walk through how students activate their accounts and complete their purchase.

Accessing the webtext

The first time your students enter their webtext, they’ll go through the registration process. (For more information on how students access the webtext, visit this Help Center article.)

Once they’ve clicked into their webtext, they’ll select Start to begin registration.

Activating their account

When students reach the Activate Your Account screen, they’ll see which purchase options they have for their particular webtext. Keep in mind that not every webtext will have every option.

Depending on their selection, they’ll apply a passkey purchased from your school’s bookstore, pay directly with a credit card, or begin a free trial.

If students don’t see the Activate Your Account screen or purchase options during the registration process, it means the cost of the webtext has been covered in their course fees. There is no additional purchase required, and they can move directly to the next step.

Completing registration

Students will review and agree to the Terms of Service, then select the Sign Me In button to complete the process. The next time they sign in, they’ll be taken straight to their webtext.

Note: If students choose to register using the free trial option, they’ll have limited access to their webtext. They’ll need to complete their purchase to get full access.
