Pay what you can
Choose to pay a price that works for you.
In keeping with our vision of making learning affordable, accessible, and inclusive for all, we offer a pay what you can feature for those who cannot afford the full price of a session or course.
We understand that price can be a barrier for learning, and our pay what you can feature aims to give everyone a chance to learn.
Can you afford a higher amount? Then pay a little more and you will be helping others to pay less and supporting our sharers who generously offer this option.
We encourage you to use this option in the right spirit, since this is a generous gesture by our cherished community of sharers.
Be the change that you wish to see in the world.

Guidelines

- SparkOn encourages those learners who are not in a position to afford the full price of the session/courses to use the pay what you can option. We advise caution against misuse of this option.
