Bear has become a trusted companion for students, researchers, and teachers around the world, helping them capture ideas in class, organize complex thoughts, and turn notes into meaningful work. We’re grateful to see Bear helping people learn, create, and share knowledge every day. To give a little something back, we’re happy to offer an educational discount for those in academia.

Bear’s educational program provides a 30% discount on the first year of the Bear Pro yearly subscription to all students and scholars who apply.

How to Apply

Please contact our customer support using your school-issued email address if possible, and include the following information:

• Your name, school, and if you are a student, teacher, or your work title at your school
• The Apple devices you own and plan to use with Bear Pro
• A short note stating that you wish to apply for the Educational Discount Program

If you cannot use a school-issued email, please attach a copy of your student ID or any document that confirms your academic status or employment.

How it works

If your request is approved, you will receive a promo code that can be used either on the iOS or macOS App Store to purchase a Bear Pro yearly subscription at a 30% discount. The subscription will be immediately active across all devices using the same iCloud credentials.

Notes

• Each discount code can be used only once and cannot be shared
• The discount does not apply if you have an active subscription or if your Bear Pro trial period is active
• Once the code is redeemed, the purchase does not include a trial period. We recommend taking advantage of the regular subscription 1-week trial period before requesting a code
• The discount applies only to the first year of Bear Pro subscription and will renew at the regular price
• Depending on your country’s taxes and currency conversion, the final discounted price might not be exactly 30% off the Bear Pro yearly full price. The App Store will display the final price before your purchase
• Bear’s educational discount codes have an expiration date. If the App Store says your code has expired, contact our customer support and we’ll be happy to issue a new one for you
