Pricing

How SkillStar is priced

SkillStar runs on credits. You buy credits in packs (the price of each pack, inclusive of GST, is below) and spend them on whichever exams, practice material and mock tests your children need. Everything in the app is priced in credits.

• A lot of SkillStar is free. Free content costs 0 credits and always will.
• Paid content shows its price up front, before you commit to anything.
• Credits are shared across every child on your account — one purchase serves the whole family.
• Unlocking something is a one-time charge. Re-opening it later is always free.
• Credits do not expire.

What things cost

• Past papers, the Daily 5 and everything marked Free: 0 credits.
• A practice set (an exam of up to 5 practice tests): usually 10 credits, unlocked once for the whole family.
• A Baba lesson on one syllabus topic: 10 credits.
• An Exam Pass: 299 credits for 12 months, covering every priced set and Baba topic of one exam family for one class.
• The exact price is always shown before you unlock anything, and you're never charged twice for the same thing.

Credit packs

Prices shown are the total you pay. They include 18% GST — for example, a ₹300 purchase is ₹254.24 plus ₹45.76 GST. A tax invoice is issued for every purchase.

Exam Pass

• An Exam Pass unlocks every priced exam and every Baba topic of one exam family for one class (for example MSAT, Grade 5) for 12 months from the day you buy it. Its price in credits is shown before you buy.
• It's bought with credits, once, for the whole family: every child on your account can use it.
• Anything that was already free stays free, and anything you unlocked before stays unlocked after the pass ends. Downloads, videos on the Syllabus tab and extra Baba chat packs are not part of a pass.

Two kinds of credits

• Purchased credits are the ones you pay for. If they're unused, they can be refunded — see our Refund & Cancellation Policy.
• Reward credits are ones we give you: the welcome credits on signup, milestone rewards your child earns, pack bonuses, rewards for things like completing your profile, inviting a family, a practice streak or a confirmed report of a wrong question, credits from a code, and any goodwill credits from our support team. They have no cash value and cannot be refunded.
• When you spend, reward credits are always used first, so your refundable balance stays intact for as long as possible.

Payment methods

Payments are processed by Razorpay. You can pay by UPI, debit card, credit card, net banking or wallet. We never see or store your card details — they go directly to the payment gateway.

In the SkillStar app for iPhone, iPad and Android, credit packs are bought through the App Store or Google Play instead, at the price the store shows in your local currency. Refunds for those purchases are handled by Apple or Google.

What credits are not

• Credits can only be spent on SkillStar's own content. They are not a general-purpose wallet.
• Credits cannot be transferred to another account or to another person.
• Credits cannot be withdrawn as cash, except through the refund process described in our Refund & Cancellation Policy.
