Pre-sales Questions
Q: What are the differences between Grammarsaurus School and Grammarsaurus Gold ‘solo’?
A: A Grammarsaurus Gold is what we used to call a ‘Solo Subscription’. School subscriptions includes a licensing fee (you are buying the right to use our curriculum in all classes across the school).
Gold subscription – This does not include the licensing fee (as a solo user you only have the right to use this in your own class). A gold (solo) subscription is for the personal use of one person only. A school subscription is an access for the whole school.
Q: What payment methods do you accept for Grammarsaurus?
A: We currently accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express for Grammarsaurus Gold subscriptions, via Stripe. We know that you’re probably raring to go with your Grammarsaurus subscription so this is the easiest and quickest method giving you instant access to all our outstanding resources!
For School Subscriptions, we can also accept a credit or debit card via Stripe payment link, sent by our admin. We recognize most schools do not have a credit card so subscriptions can be purchased by invoice.
Q: What currencies do you accept?
A: We are currently only able to bill you in AUD, if your debit or credit card is in another currency our credit card processor (Stripe) will do a currency conversion at today’s exchange rate. Easy!
Q: After payment do I get instant access?
A: Yes! We pride ourselves on having instant access. As soon as your payment has been authorized by our credit card processor (Stripe) the username and password you picked during sign up becomes active.
If you are signing up as a school we do realize that you want to get going straight away but school accounts are only activated after funds have been received via BACS / Cheque. If your school has a credit card please contact our support@grammarsaurus.com.au to pay via credit card link.
Q: How long do Grammarsaurus subscriptions last?
A: By default, both of our subscriptions run for a full year and they expire on the same day you set the subscription up. Once you have a subscription you can manage it via our account management service. You can cancel your auto-renew by selecting cancel, your subscription will then stay active until the expiry date.
Q: will my solo subscription automatically renew?
A: Your subscription will auto renew 24 hours before expiry date. You can switch off your auto-renew via clicking on your subscription page located within your profile. Just simply click ‘cancel’.
Q: I’ve seen promotional discount codes online are these legitimate?
A: Yes from time to time we have a promotional discount if you have one of these codes you can enter it at the time of payment. If you don’t currently have a code keep an eye out on our Facebook page [Link], until then you can signup here via the homepage.
Q: is your site mobile compatible?
A: Yes, the site is mobile and tablet compatible for most Apple and Android devices. There are known compatibility issues with some Windows tablets and this can be rectified by using Google Chrome or Firefox on your Windows-based tablet.

Got your account but have a question?
Q: How can I search your site?
A: You can search the site either by using the menu at the top or in the search bar at the top of the site if you are viewing a resource. You can search for specific terms using the search box on the homepage or the header. You can also use the # in-front of your keyword to search. Examples of searches are:
‘General election’
‘Arithmetic’
‘Model Text’
#civicsandcitizenship
#democracy
We have found that smaller queries produce the best results and that a list of terms can sometimes not produce resources that are actually available. Please try to refrain from using ‘Model Text, King Henry, Year 5’ and keep searches to singular terms.
Q: How do I download a resource?
A: Resources can be downloaded by right-clicking on the PDF or ZIP icon contained within the resource. You should be prompted to ‘Save Target As’ if using windows or ‘Save Link As’ if you are using an Apple Mac. The resource should then download to your default download location. If you have any issues downloading please see our ‘I can’t seem to download a resource’ section. For large zip files, please download winrar for free to your device.
