Speakable offers two flexible ways to buy:
Subscribe for immediate access using a credit card or ACH
Order Access using a purchase order (PO) and signed order form
This guide explains the difference, what’s required for each option, and how to get started.
Option 1: Subscribe
Subscribe is the fastest way to start using Speakable. It’s ideal for teachers or teams that can pay directly without going through a district purchasing process.
How it works:
Pay with a school-issued credit card (P-card) or ACH transfer
Complete payment through our checkout page
Access is activated immediately
Subscription renews automatically every year unless canceled
Best for:
Teachers or instructional leads with budget authority
Small teams or pilot purchases
Anyone not required to go through a PO or invoicing process
Option 2: Order Access (PO + Order Form)
Order Access is for schools or districts that require formal approval, a quote, and a purchase order. This path allows you to pay by check or ACH after invoicing, but requires a signed order form to activate your subscription.
How it works:
Fill out a short order request form
We’ll send:
A custom quote
A pre-filled Speakable order form
Share these with your school or district purchasing contact
Return the signed order form (PO optional but recommended)
We activate your access and send an invoice
Best for:
District-level or full school purchases
Buyers going through a formal internal approval process
Anyone needing documentation for grant, Title, or tech funds
What’s the Difference?
Subscribe | Order Access |
Pay upfront with card or ACH | Pay later by check or ACH after invoicing |
Access starts immediately | Access starts after we receive a signed order form |
No paperwork required | Requires signed order form (PO recommended) |
Best for individual or small team purchases | Best for school-wide or district-level implementations |
Annual auto-renewal | Annual manual renewal or multi-year options available |
Why We Require a Signed Order Form
If you’re choosing the Order Access route, a signed Speakable order form is required—even if your district is submitting a PO.
This ensures we’re aligned on terms and allows us to activate your account without delay. It also helps your finance team reconcile the purchase more easily on their end.
A PO alone does not activate your subscription. The signed order form is required.
