Frequently asked questions
What students ask before claiming their first perk.
What is FreeForStudent?
FreeForStudent is an independent worldwide directory of student tools, education plans and discounts. It links students to official provider pages and clearly labels eligibility, country restrictions, payment requirements and renewal conditions.
Do I need a .edu email address?
No. Many brands accept any proof of enrolment — a student ID card, an enrolment letter or a national student number. Each offer page states its own requirement, and our verification guide explains what documents are usually accepted.
Are these offers really free?
No. Cards distinguish no-cost plans, public free tiers, trials, credits, institution access and paid discounts. Trials and subscriptions may renew, so read the warning on each card.
Which countries are covered?
The website serves a worldwide audience, but individual offers are country- and institution-specific. Use the availability filter and always confirm the official terms.
How does this site make money?
The current directory uses direct official-source links and has no active display ads. Future affiliate links or ads will be clearly disclosed and will not change editorial decisions.
An offer did not work. What should I do?
Offers change constantly. Tell us and we will re-check or remove the listing. Always confirm the current terms on the brand's official page before paying for anything.
