One membership. Every atlas.

Membership opens every atlas — Rome, the Crusades and the Mongols, both world wars, revolutions on three continents, the Cold War and the IB History atlases — plus every new one the day it opens, with every map quiz and printable study packs with answer guides. Most readers take Annual at £89 a year; Monthly at £12.99 is there if you’d rather try it first. Revising for an exam? The Exam Sprint is £19 for eight weeks. WW2 is free — every chapter.

QUESTIONS

Q.01What’s free, and what needs membership?

WW2 is free — every chapter. Try chapters 1–2 of any 2 other atlases (3 with a free account). Membership opens every chapter of every atlas, every map quiz, and every new atlas as it opens. The chapter pages, quick quizzes and discussion questions on this site are free to read.

Q.02What does each plan include — and what about offline files?

Every plan opens every atlas online, with every map quiz. Annual (£89) also includes the offline archive — every atlas as a self-contained file, sent by email — and printable study packs with answer guides; the Teacher, School and Patron plans include everything in Annual. Monthly (£12.99) is online only. Teacher (£149) adds classroom or household use, printable lesson packs and answer keys. School (£699) covers a department’s teachers and their classes.

Q.03What is the Exam Sprint?

Every atlas, every map quiz and every printable guide for 8 weeks. £19 once. It is built for revision season — April and May for AP, May and November for IB — and it does not renew. If you take Annual afterwards, the £19 is credited toward it. IB students: see what the atlases do for each paper.

Q.04Is annual really cheaper than monthly?

Yes, and by a wide margin. Twelve months at £12.99 comes to £155.88; Annual is £89 — about 43% less — and it includes the offline archive, which Monthly does not. If you start monthly and switch, the months you’ve paid are credited toward the year.

Q.05Can I use the atlases in my classroom?

Please do. WW2 is free — every chapter — and may be projected and assigned freely. For your own classes, the Teacher / Homeschool plan (£149 a year) covers one teacher or one family, with lesson packs and answer keys. A whole department is the School plan (£699 a year) — self-serve, paid by card or school purchasing card in one session, with an invoice-ready receipt from Stripe. Email us only for district-wide or multi-school licensing.

Q.06Can I give it as a gift?

Yes. Gift a year (£89, once) gives one person a year of every atlas, starting on the day you buy it, with a printable certificate carrying your message. The Archive Edition (£249) is every current atlas as offline files to keep. How gifts work →

Q.07What is the Archive Edition?

A one-time purchase (£249) for collectors who want the files outright, without a membership: every atlas published so far as self-contained offline files, with the printable study packs. Future atlases are not included — it buys the shelf as it stands today. Most readers are better served by Annual, which costs less and keeps growing.

Q.08What if I join and regret it?

Thirty days, full refund, no questions — one line by email is enough, on every plan. Cancel a subscription any time from a Stripe receipt or by email. Everything already delivered stays yours either way.

Every atlas on one desk.
