Is Khan Academy really free?

Yes. Khan Academy's entire core library — thousands of lessons in math, science, history, and more — is completely free and always will be. You may be cancelling a voluntary recurring donation or a Khanmigo AI tutor subscription.

Khanmigo is Khan Academy's AI-powered tutoring assistant. It is available as an add-on subscription and is separate from the free core content. Cancelling Khanmigo does not affect access to standard Khan Academy lessons.

Will my progress be deleted if I cancel?

No. Your Khan Academy account, badges, mastery progress, and course history are permanently saved on your free account regardless of whether you have a paid subscription or donation.

Retention Tips

Khan Academy's core content is always free, so you'll never lose access to our lessons by cancelling. If you're cancelling a recurring donation, we completely understand — every contribution, no matter the size or duration, makes a real difference for learners worldwide. If you'd like to adjust the amount rather than stop entirely, we'd really appreciate your continued support.
