Email Subject: How to purchase e-textbooks for the new term/year
Dear Parent,
As always, we're committed to providing our students with the tools they need to achieve academic success. We're proud to partner with Snapplify to provide our students with top-quality textbooks from leading publishers.
To buy your child's prescribed textbooks for the new term/year. Log into our school's Engage platform [place URL link here] using your email issued by our school. For a step-by-step guide please follow these simple instructions for purchasing books in Engage.
Engage supports all major payment methods, including debit and credit card, EFT and Instant EFT, mobile money payments, and payments using Snapplify Credit. We recommend paying via credit card, as the books will be available immediately. If you choose to pay via EFT, you'll need to send a proof of payment to orders@snapplify.com. It can take 1–2 business days to process your order before the books are available. For EFT payments, we suggest planning ahead a few days in advance to make sure your child has everything they need.
If you have any questions or need help, do not hesitate to get in touch with the Snapplify Customer Service Team. You can email them at help@snapplify.com, or send a chat message in Engage using the chatbot in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.
