Pricing
$199/mo + $9/mo per billable student
No money upfront. No nickel-and-diming. Nothing to install. Nothing to maintain. You get the whole program, and all updates and support, for one low price. So you can just run your college.
What does the price include?
You get all of Populi—the software, all updates and upgrades, customer support for all your users, and implementation—together with a chunk of free file storage and a monthly allotment of text messages.
What's included with file storage?
"File storage" includes storage and backup for the files you keep in Populi—documents, pictures, even audio and video. It also includes encoding, streaming, and bandwidth for your media. You get 2,000 GB of free file storage, with additional storage available for 10¢ per GB per month.
How many text messages does my school get?
You get 5,000 free text messages each month, which count towards one text per individual recipient (U.S. and Canadian carriers only). Additional text messages are available for 2¢ per text recipient. Additional toll-free texting numbers are $1 per number per month.
What technology investments does my school need to make?
You don’t need new servers, new staff, or other software for Populi to work. All you need are things you already have: computers, web browsers, and high-speed internet.
What's a billable student?
“Billable students” are your full-time, part-time, and auditing students who take at least one course in a calendar month. In other words, your cost scales with your enrollment. See the Terms of Service for more details.
Are there other costs involved?
We charge only the basic price (plus nominal charges in case you need more file storage or text messages). Some of the optional services we integrate with (payment processors, plagiarism-detection, etc.) may charge their own fees separate from Populi.
How long is the service contract with Populi?
Populi is month-to-month. We don’t lock you down with long-term contracts. Why? It keeps us on our toes. Our business plan is simple: to win all of our customers back every month. And if we don’t win you back, you're free to leave.

Populi has changed my life. I used to juggle several softwares and systems to manage admissions, finances, curriculum, mailings, and applications. To have everything streamline through one place is a dream come true for me and the students.
After three online degrees, the Populi system is a breath of fresh air. It’s diverse, easy to use, and socially friendly. Populi makes test taking, navigation, file uploading, and being a student on-the-go simple.
Populi is a great tool for the college/university to make use of online as well as the traditional classroom environment. The ease-of-use and tech support are unrivaled by other content systems I have seen.
I have always been confident of my skills as an educator. Because of Populi and its ease of use, I can now be just as confident in my skills as a higher ed administrator. I really appreciate the user-friendliness of this platform. Thank you Populi!
