How do I verify my student status with my Toon Boom ID?

Updated on



A student who has a Toon Boom ID that is associated with a student e-mail address provided by their institute will be able to verify their student status in the Toon Boom Store during the purchasing process. This will give them access to a student discount.

In order to verify your status, you will first need a Toon Boom ID linked to your student e-mail address. If you have not yet done this, please see the step-by-step instructions in How do I create a Toon Boom account? before continuing.
