Prices

The cost of Spike@School is made up of a one-off setup fee, and then a monthly fee.

Setup Fee

  • $1700 +GST - The one-off fee pays for the setup of your site on our servers, and the creation of your school template (this is what makes your Spike@School site look different from all the rest).

Monthly Fee

  • $45 +GST per month by automatic payment - The monthly fee covers hosting, updates and phone & email support.

Hosting: Your monthly fee ensures Spike@School is hosted on our servers so that you can have peace of mind. All you need is a compatible web browser. Spike@School recommends Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Updates: Your monthly fee provides for all future updates of Spike@School including any modules that may be developed in the future. All updates are done seamlessly through our server.

Support: Your monthly fee provides for email and phone support.

Once you sign up to Spike@School we will arrange for the creation of your site template. This process can take as little as two weeks if you get photos, colours, and logos to us quickly. We will begin your monthly hosting fee when your site template is finished, or two months after your sign-up date (whichever comes first).
