Educational Discount
Where do I go to get my discount?
Head over to our educational discount application form here. You’ll need to be logged in (so you might need to create an account first if you don’t already have one). There’s also a link to this form on your account page.
am I ELIGIBLE FOR A DISCOUNT?
If you are a student or teacher/professor at any accredited institution worldwide, you are eligible for a 30% discount on any Spitfire sample library. You can purchase as many products as you like with this discount whilst you are in education, and you can even use your discounted libraries for commercial purposes.
what documentation do I need?
Good supporting documentation includes student ID cards and acceptance letters for students, and redacted contracts of employment or staff ID cards for teachers. If in doubt, please provide us with a couple of documents to look over. Please also ensure that any photos/scans are clear and readable. If your documentation is not in English, please consider including a translation. Please note: From January 1st 2018 we will require supporting documentation to be dated within 30 days of the application, or in the case of ID cards, have an expiry date in the future.
HOW DO I APPLY FOR A DISCOUNT?
The application form allows you to choose up to five products to receive discount codes for. Simply type the name of the product into each search bar and select it from the list that appears (see below).
Ensure that you have selected your product from the list, as our system will not recognise it otherwise! Once you’ve selected your products and uploaded your supporting documentation, hit ‘Make Request’. If you wish to purchase more than five products, you can repeat this process as necessary. A member of our team will then process your request ASAP, and you’ll receive your discount codes to your account email.
THE PRODUCT I WANT ISN’t SHOWING UP ON THE FORM!
The educational discount applies to the RRP of a product, so you can’t get an educational discount on collections, collection exclusive products, or products that are already discounted by an amount greater than 30%.
HOW DO I USE MY DISCOUNT CODE/S?
You can only use one discount code per transaction, so you will need to purchase your products one at a time and apply the relevant discount code. When you view your basket, there will be the option to add a discount code under the Total Cost header (see below). Once you hit ‘Apply’, your new total cost will be calculated. Please check that the discount code has been applied before proceeding to checkout!
HOW long will my code/s last?
Your discount code will usually expire after 1 year. However, during promotional periods with a specific end date, you will need to make your purchase before that date.
Can i give my code/s to somebody else?
Your code will only work on purchases made with the same Spitfire account you used when you applied for the discount, so you won’t be able to share it, sorry!
Why can’t I have a discount on your collections?
Our collections already have a discount of up to 35% compared against the price of the products they contain, so we don’t allow any further discount on these products.
