Running your co‑op
Most co‑ops make it work with a group chat and a spreadsheet.
HomeschoolGo brings your roster, registration, calendar, messages, and payments into one dependable place, so the people who run your co‑op always have the same current information.

Payments land in your Stripe account, not ours.
We connect to your co‑op's own Stripe account and take no cut of what families pay you.
Receipts carry your co‑op's name.

Plus plan: Stripe processing fees apply to family payments. Details
When families pay co‑op fees by card or bank transfer (ACH), Stripe charges its standard processing fee (2.9% + 30¢ per card transaction, or 0.8% capped at $5 per bank payment), billed directly by Stripe to your connected account. We don’t mark this up or take a cut.
Both plans include roster import from Homeschool-Life.com or spreadsheets, and full data export any time. No lock-in.
Plus includes 500 texts a month for your co-op. A text is up to 160 characters sent to one person, and a longer message uses one text per part. Need more?
Pricing and payments
What does it cost? Is it per family?
One flat price for your whole co‑op: $199 a year for Essentials or $299 for Plus. There are no per-family fees, so the price stays the same as your co‑op grows.
How does the free trial work, and what happens when it ends?
Every feature is free for 60 days, and you don’t need a credit card to start. If you haven’t subscribed when it ends, your co‑op goes read-only. Nothing is deleted, and subscribing picks up right where you left off.
Which plan should we pick?
Essentials if you collect dues offline, by check, cash, or Venmo. Plus if you want families to pay online, class fees with sibling discounts and payment plans, a public website, and 500 texts a month (up to 160 characters each). You can upgrade any time.
Compare plans →How do families pay, and do you take a cut?
On Plus, families pay by card or bank through Stripe, straight into your co‑op’s own account. We take no cut; Stripe charges its standard processing fee. On either plan, you can also record cash and check payments.
Switching and setup
How hard is it to move from Homeschool-Life.com or a spreadsheet?
Export your roster, drop the file in, and the Migration Assistant maps the columns. You review every family before anything saves, and your old system keeps running through the trial.
See how switching works →Will our families actually use it? Is there an app?
Families get iPhone and Android apps for the calendar, announcements, messages, and payments, and everything also works in a phone browser. Each person signs in with their own email.
What happens when our leadership changes?
Hand the owner role to another admin in a couple of clicks. Board members each get their own login with the permissions you choose, so nobody shares a password.
Running your co‑op
Does it handle class registration, waitlists, and teachers?
Yes. Set class sizes and open registration when you’re ready, and families join a waitlist when a class fills. Teachers take attendance, post assignments and updates, and keep a gradebook.
Can we track volunteer hours?
Yes, on every plan. Post shifts, set a requirement, and see where each family stands: met, on track, or short.
Can we keep our handbook and forms here, and run our website?
Yes. Upload documents and FAQs for your members. On Plus, you can also build a public page for your co‑op that shows upcoming events and takes applications.
Your data
Who can see our families’ information?
Only members of your co‑op, and only what their role allows. We never sell, rent, or share your roster.
How we protect your data →Can we take our data with us if we leave?
Yes. Owners can download a full backup at any time: every table, as CSV plus JSON.
