I am pleased to announce that a week from today -- January 4, 2016 -- you will have more opportunities to take advantage of Sonlight's fee-free payment plans. What's new?
- Year-round 3-, 6-, or 9-month options
Spend $799 (or get a Full-Grade Package) and you get your choice of payment plans any time of the year. - 40% down + three payments of 20%
When your order ships, you invest just 40% (less than half) of your package price. In the following months, you pay the rest in 20% increments. - $399 options April - June
Right after the new catalog comes out, take advantage of a plan even on smaller orders.
Why the change?
We want to make it possible for you to take advantage of these fantastic payment plans no matter when you were ready to order. Offering plans for orders of $799 lets us serve you when you would most benefit from spreading your investment over a longer period of time. It also allows you to invest in the curriculum you need instead of tying the benefit to a predefined package on our end. Click here to learn more about Sonlight's payment plans.
We appreciate the flexibility and freedom homeschooling gives us. At Sonlight, we want to make it even easier for you to homeschool in a way that matches your family's needs. Expanding our payment plan opportunities year-round is just one of the ways we seek to do that for you. Whenever you're ready start homeschooling this year, we're here to help you.

HI Luke, this sounds great, but do international users also qualify for the payment offer? We are based in South Africa and started with the Sonlight program in 2015 and want to continue but with ever increasing cost of living and also the exchange rate (R 15.52 to the dollar) it becomes very difficult to sustain. The program this year will cost us some 60% more than what we paid last year.
Wynand, regrettably, no. I realize that ever increasing shipping costs and, in your case, unfavorable exchange rates makes purchasing anything from the US really difficult in many countries. We have a lot of awesome Sonlighters in South Africa... I wish I had better news and a solution for these more global issues. I know some families have worked together to group orders to make it a little more affordable.
