Super Family Plan Splitter: Work Out What Each Person Really Pays

One Family payment covers six Super accounts — but what does each person actually pay? Put in the price from your app and the number of people sharing, and this splitter does the division for you, including what you save against six separate Super plans.

Your Family price

Open the Super screen in your Duolingo app and copy the Family price you see there. Family is usually sold by the year — but enter whatever your app shows.

Who is sharing?

The family manager plus up to five others — six accounts in total.

Individual Super price (optional)

Only needed for the savings comparison. Take the individual Super price from the same app.

Three quick examples

Round numbers to show the maths — your own split comes from the price in your app.

Example 1 — six people, $132 a year

If your app shows $132 a year and six of you share it, that is $22 a year each, about $1.83 a month per person.

Example 2 — two people, $132 a year

With the same $132 a year split between two, each pays $66 a year. Against individual Super at $83.99 a year each, that still saves $17.99 a year each.

Example 3 — five people, $150 a year

If your app shows $150 a year shared by five people, each person pays $30 a year, or $2.50 a month.

How the maths works

  1. One yearly total. A monthly Family price is multiplied by 12 first, so every figure below comes from a single yearly amount.
  2. Split it evenly. That yearly total is divided by the number of people sharing — manager and members pay the same share.
  3. Per person per day. Each person’s yearly share divided by 365.
  4. The saving. Everyone buying Super alone would cost the individual yearly price times the number of people. Take the Family yearly price away from that, and you have the group saving — divide it by the group for each person’s saving.

The Family plan, in short

  1. One person pays, five others join. The buyer becomes the family manager and sends invite links — by text, WhatsApp or email.
  2. Separate accounts, separate progress. Every member learns on their own login, with their own courses, streak and XP. Only the payment is shared.
  3. Invite anyone. Friends or family, anywhere in the world, learning any language. The only block: someone with an active paid Duolingo plan has to cancel and let it expire first.
  4. The manager is in charge. Only the manager can add or remove members, from the Super dashboard.
  5. Leaving costs nobody their learning. Joining, leaving or being removed never touches progress or streaks — only the Super benefits come and go.
  6. Seats are not for sale. Duolingo forbids reselling Family seats and can block new members or close a plan where seats were sold.
  7. If the manager stops paying, the whole group loses Super at the end of the paid period. Accounts, streaks and progress stay put.
Where does Max fit in now? Duolingo is winding Max down: new Max plans stop being sold during November 2026, and existing individual Max subscribers move to a Super Family plan at the same price. Video Call is coming to all Super subscribers by the end of 2026, and Duolingo says options for existing Max Family plans will be sorted out in 2027. If Max was on your list, Super Family is now the plan to compare.

Questions about the Family split, answered

Is Family always cheaper than buying Super alone?

Almost always, once two or more people share it — but not by magic. If your Family price is high and only two of you are sharing, separate plans can come close. Put your individual Super price in above and the savings box will tell you honestly whether Family wins for your group.

How many people can share one Family plan?

Six accounts in total: the family manager who pays, plus up to five invited members. Every member gets full Super on their own account.

Do we have to be related, or live together?

No. Duolingo lets you invite anyone — friends and family, in any location, learning any language. The only limits are that you cannot invite someone who already pays for Duolingo until their subscription runs out, and you cannot sell spare seats.

What happens if someone leaves the group?

The manager can remove a member and invite someone else into the empty seat. The person who leaves keeps their account and everything they learned, but loses Super unless they buy their own plan.

Is the Family plan monthly or yearly?

It is sold by the year in most places — there is usually no monthly Family option. This splitter still accepts a monthly price if that is what your app shows: it multiplies it by 12 and works from the yearly total.

Does joining or leaving a Family plan change my streak or progress?

No. Joining, leaving or being removed does not touch your account — your streak, XP, courses and friends stay exactly as they are. Only the Super benefits come and go.
