Score Guarantee Terms

Last updated: October 29, 2026

Here is the short version

Start your Aniko subscription at least 14 days before your SAT, finish your diagnostic, and complete at least 90% of your study plan. If your official SAT score still comes in below the score Aniko guaranteed, you can claim a refund of all your subscription payments from the 3 months before the test, or 12 months of Aniko for free. You choose. The full terms below explain exactly how it works.

How it works

The guarantee is designed to be easy to understand: start early, unlock your score, follow the plan, confirm your name, and submit a claim only if your official score is lower than your guarantee.

1

Start early

Start an Aniko subscription

Your subscription should begin at least two weeks before the test and stay active until the claim is made. The earlier you start, the more time you have to raise your score, and the higher is your guarantee. Canceling your subscription before the claim voids the guarantee.

2

Lock your score

Complete the diagnostic

The diagnostic not only identifies your weak spots, it estimates your current level, predicts your score progression, and locks in your guaranteed score.

3

Study consistently

Follow your study plan

Complete at least 90% of your plan before test day. The guarantee is based on your selected study intensity. If you want to study more, or you fall behind, you can change the intensity at any time and the guarantee will update.

4

Keep it fair

Confirm the name on your score report

Before test day, confirm your legal name in Study Plan Settings, exactly as it appears on your College Board score report. When you claim, we match it to your score report, so every guarantee goes to the student who earned it.

5

Claim if needed

Email your score report

Download your official score report PDF from your College Board account and email it to hello@aniko.ai within 45 days after your test date. If you are under 18, a parent or guardian sends it. Our team checks it against your account, which may take up to 7 days. If your official score is below the guarantee, you can choose a refund of your Aniko subscription payments made during the last 3 months before the test date or 12 months of Aniko for free.

1. About this guarantee

The Aniko Score Guarantee is a voluntary promise offered by the creators of Aniko, registered as San Junipero Ltd, 86-90 Paul Street, London, EC2A 4NE, United Kingdom. If you meet the eligibility requirement in these terms and your official College Board SAT score is below the guaranteed score shown in your Aniko account, you may submit a claim for the remedy described below.

This guarantee is offered in addition to your legal rights as a consumer. It does not limit, replace, or reduce any rights you may have under applicable consumer law, including the Consumer Rights Act 2015 where it applies.

2. Definitions

  • Guaranteed score means the SAT score Aniko displays as your guaranteed score after you complete the diagnostic or after you update your study plan settings.
  • Test date means the SAT test date saved in your Aniko study plan for the guarantee.
  • Official score report means the PDF of the official SAT score report issued by College Board for the relevant test date, which you download from your College Board account. It must show your name, test date, total score, and section scores.
  • Qualifying access means an active Aniko Premium subscription or higher (currently Premium or Unfair Advantage), or sponsored access that Aniko marks as eligible for the guarantee. The Essential plan and the free plan do not include the guarantee.
  • Claim window means the 45 days after the test date covered by your guarantee. Your study plan settings show the last day to claim.

3. Eligibility requirements

You must meet all of the following requirements to make a valid claim:

  • Have qualifying access that starts at least 14 days before your SAT test date and remains active until you submit the claim.
  • Complete the diagnostic and score-prediction unlock requirements so Aniko can issue your guaranteed score.
  • Complete at least 90% of the study plan Aniko assigns before test day. This is based on the study-plan completion percentage shown in your account.
  • Confirm your score-report legal name before test day. If you are under 18, a parent or legal guardian must help confirm the student's score-report legal name before test day.
  • Be the only person using your Aniko account. The guarantee is personal and cannot be transferred or shared.
  • Submit a score report whose name matches the score-report legal name you confirmed in your Aniko account before test day. It must be a valid official College Board SAT score report, submitted during the claim window. For students under 18, a parent or legal guardian must send the claim and make the confirmations described in section 10.

4. Your guaranteed score

Your guaranteed score is tied to your diagnostic, your selected SAT test date, and the study plan Aniko builds around your goals and weak spots. It is not a promise that every student will reach the same score. It is a personalized guarantee based on your starting point and plan.

If you change your test date, study intensity, or other plan settings, Aniko may recalculate, replace, or require manual review of your guaranteed score. The guarantee that applies to a claim is the eligible guaranteed score shown in your account for the relevant test date.

5. The remedy if your score is lower

If your claim is valid under these terms, you choose one of two remedies: a cash refund or 12 months of Aniko for free.

  • The cash refund covers only actual Aniko subscription payments made during the final 3 months before the SAT test date covered by the claim.
  • If your access was sponsored, comped, paid by a tutor, school, partner, or otherwise provided without a direct Aniko subscription payment from you, the cash refund amount is $0 and the available remedy is 12 months of Aniko for free.
  • If you bought an annual or other multi-month plan, the cash refund is limited to the portion of that payment covering the last 3 months before the SAT test date covered by the claim (a pro-rated 3 months of the plan), and only where the plan was active during that window. This keeps the cash refund consistent across monthly and annual plans, so an annual plan is not refunded in full. If no qualifying payment covers that window, the cash refund amount is $0 and the 12-month-free remedy remains available.
  • Refunds are returned to the original payment method where technically possible. Valid approved refund claims are paid promptly after approval.

6. What is not covered

The guarantee covers Aniko subscription payments only, and only within the refund limit described above. It does not cover any other student expenses, including SAT registration fees, travel, tutoring or prep materials outside Aniko, third-party costs, currency conversion fees, taxes unless required by law, or any other expenses.

7. How to submit a claim

To submit a claim, email hello@aniko.ai during the claim window and attach the official College Board score report PDF for the test date covered by your guarantee. The “Email hello@aniko.ai” button in your Aniko study plan settings starts this email for you.

Our team reviews each claim by hand, which may take up to 7 days. We check the report, your account activity, your name confirmation, your subscription status, and your study-plan completion. If anything is missing or does not match, we will contact you.

We will not add undisclosed claim requirements after the fact. If your claim is valid under these terms, Aniko will honor the remedy you choose.

8. Confirming the score report and minors

To prevent guarantee abuse, Aniko confirms that a submitted score report belongs to the student who used the Aniko account before a claim can be approved. We check the name on the score report against the score-report legal name the student confirmed in their Aniko account before test day.

Students who are 18 or older send their own claim. For students under 18, a parent or legal guardian sends the claim and makes the confirmations described in section 10.

Aniko stores only the minimum information needed to authenticate the score report and administer the guarantee, such as names, verification status, and timestamps. This data is handled according to the Privacy Policy.

9. Subscription and cancellation

The guarantee requires qualifying access to remain active through claim submission. If you cancel your subscription, lose qualifying access, or fail to keep required payments current before submitting a claim, the guarantee may be void.

You can cancel your subscription online. Canceling your subscription does not affect any statutory cancellation rights that apply to your purchase, including the 14-day cancellation period where required by law. The guarantee is an additional benefit, and keeping it active requires keeping the subscription or qualifying access active until the claim is submitted.

10. Fairness, fraud, and account sharing

The guarantee is designed for genuine, personal SAT preparation. Aniko may manually review, deny, or void a claim when there is evidence of account sharing, identity mismatch, false information, payment abuse, or suspicious usage patterns that make the claim unreliable.

If we reasonably determine that you abused Aniko or the guarantee, such as by manipulating study activity or submitting an edited or fraudulent score report, we will deny your claim and apply a full ban to your account under section 8 of our Terms of Service.

If a parent or legal guardian sends a claim for a student under 18, they must certify that they are the student's parent or legal guardian, that the score report belongs to the student, and that the student was the sole person who used the Aniko account.

11. Edge cases

  • Changed test date: changing your test date may recalculate or replace your guarantee.
  • Missed or canceled SAT: the guarantee applies only to an official SAT score report for the covered test date.
  • Payment failure: a failed or unpaid subscription payment may pause or void eligibility until resolved.
  • Changed study intensity: increasing or reducing your plan may update the guaranteed score and required work.
  • Incorrect profile data: inaccurate test dates, names, or other profile details may require manual review or void the guarantee.
  • Duplicate claims: only one approved remedy is available for the same covered SAT test date.
  • Score-report name mismatch: Aniko may approve a difference between the name on the official score report and your confirmed score-report legal name after review.

12. Your statutory rights

This guarantee is offered in addition to, and does not limit or replace, your legal rights as a consumer. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits rights that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 where it applies.

13. Changes to the guarantee

Aniko may update these terms from time to time. If a change is material, we will try to provide reasonable notice before it takes effect. The guarantee terms in effect when your guaranteed score is unlocked will apply to that guarantee unless a later change is required by law or is more favorable to you.

14. No affiliation with College Board

Aniko is an independent SAT tutoring platform and is not endorsed by, affiliated with, or approved by the College Board. SAT is a registered trademark of the College Board, which was not involved in the production of, and does not endorse, this product or service.

15. Governing law

These guarantee terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, except where mandatory consumer protection laws in your country or state give you additional rights that cannot be waived. You may have local consumer rights in addition to the rights described here.
