Other Payment Option

• Plan by Gift Certificates. Over a period of time, purchase gift certificates from Sonlight Curriculum. When you acquire the needed amount, you can then place your order using those gift certificates. You create a payment plan for yourself.

Prices for packages and individual items are subject to change without notice. Visit our website for accurate pricing.

Unless you indicate otherwise, price increases up to 10% above your calculated order total will not delay us from shipping your order. However, we expect you to pay the difference upon receipt of shipment. If the difference between your calculation and ours is greater than 10%, we will contact you to acquire approval before shipment. Please provide an email address for fastest contact.

• General Sales Tax Information. The amount of tax charged for your Sonlight Curriculum order depends on the destination of the shipment. Sonlight charges sales tax for domestic orders where it is required by law to do so.

  For your convenience, we display an estimated sales tax amount when orders are placed. The exact sales tax will be listed on your invoice (packing slip) and reflects all state and local taxes of your order destination at the time your order is shipped.

• Sales Tax on Gift Certificates. No sales tax is charged when purchasing gift certificates; however, purchases paid for with gift certificates may be subject to tax.
• Tax-Exempt Customers. If a customer is tax exempt, you will need to send us your tax exempt certificate. We will then put a code on your record indicating tax exempt and the system will not collect tax.
