Capcut Student version

Hi,

CapCut does not currently offer a dedicated student version of CapCut Pro. However, there are cost-effective ways for your 12-year-old to access CapCut Pro features:

CapCut Pro for Students – Cost-Effective Options

1. 7-Day Free Trial via Referral Links

CapCut provides a 7-day free Pro trial through a referral program. By using an invite link, both you and your son can enjoy Pro features for a week without any cost. You can extend this trial by inviting friends, earning up to 70 days of free Pro access. No credit card is required, and there's no auto-renewal.

• How to Claim:

  • Open CapCut on your device.

  • Navigate to the referral section (under your profile or settings).

  • Enter a valid referral code or use a shared link.

  • Activate the trial before the third day of installation.

Note: Ensure that the referral link is compatible with your region. Sometimes you will need a VPN to access certain features.

2. 30% Discount for New Users

CapCut currently offers a 30% discount on the Pro plan for new users, which includes students. This discount can be applied during the subscription process. Additionally, enter promo codes "CAPCUTPROMO" or "CAPCUT2025" at checkout to reduce the price.

• Current Pricing of CapCut:

  • Monthly: $9.99

  • Yearly: $89.99

  After applying the 30% discount:

  • Monthly: $6.99

  • Yearly: $62.99

Note: Discounts are one-time offers, so it's advisable to choose the annual plan for better value.

Recommendations

• Explore the Free Version: The free version of CapCut is quite powerful and offers a lot of features for video editing. Your son might find that the free version meets most of his needs, especially at 12 years old. Many "Pro" features are advanced and might not be necessary for casual or hobbyist use.

• For Short-Term Use: Utilize the 7-day free trial to explore CapCut Pro's features. This is a great way for your son to try out the Pro features and see if they are essential for his needs before committing to a paid subscription. Be sure to mark your calendar for when the trial ends to avoid unwanted charges.

• For Extended Access: If your son requires Pro features for school projects or consistent use, consider the discounted annual subscription. The yearly subscription is more cost-effective than the monthly one. A monthly subscription is $9.99, while a yearly subscription is $89.99, offering a discount over the year.

• Check for Seasonal Promotions: CapCut often runs special promotions, especially around major holidays, Black Friday/Cyber Monday, and back-to-school season (August and September). Keep an eye on their social media channels and subscribe to their newsletter for announcements. These promotions can sometimes offer significant discounts (10% to 50% off).
• Contact CapCut Support: While not guaranteed, uou can try contacting CapCut support directly and inquiring about any student or educational offers, especially if they have an ".edu" email address.

Note: Always verify the current availability of discounts or trials directly within the CapCut app or official website, as promotions may change over time.

Important Considerations for a 12-Year-Old:

• Content and Community Guidelines: Be aware that CapCut, like many social media-integrated apps, has user-generated content and templates. While CapCut has a 12+ rating, some users have reported finding inappropriate content in templates. It's advisable to have discussions with your son about appropriate content and monitor his usage, especially if he is exploring templates.
• Need vs. Want: Discuss with your son which "Pro" features he specifically needs and why. Sometimes, the desire for "Pro" is more about having the latest and greatest rather than a genuine need for specific advanced tools.

There isn't a direct "CapCut Student Version" discount, leveraging free trials, looking for seasonal sales, and opting for an annual subscription are the most effective ways to reduce the cost of CapCut Pro. Also, consider if the free version sufficiently meets his current needs.
