Subscriptions FAQ

Who are subscriptions designed for?

• • The subscriptions are designed for anyone who is interested in studying the Bible. A subscription makes it easy to have a solid Bible study library so you can start reading and studying Scripture right away.
    

What are the benefits of a subscription? 

• • For just $2.99 to $5.99/month, you will have access to a curated Bible study library that includes several Study Bibles, a one-volume Bible commentary, a Bible dictionary, a Maps set, a Bible atlas, a cross reference set, and a concordance that is tied to Strong's numbers for basic original language study. Buying these resources individually through Olive Tree would cost over $300. 

What are the differences between the subscription bundles?

• • We have four different subscription bundles available right now, the Starter pack, ESV Study Pack, the NIV Study Pack, and NKJV Study Pack. Click on this link to see more information, including a list of the resources that come in each package. 

Do I need a subscription to use the Olive Tree Bible App?

• • You do not need a subscription to use the Olive Tree Bible app. We still offer the same a la carte resources for sale on OliveTree.com and in the in-app stores. You can buy additional resources to download to your Olive Tree app(s) at any time.

Do I need to subscribe to access my previously purchased titles?

• • You do not need a subscription to access your previously purchased Olive Tree resources. You will have access to these resources alongside your subscription.

What happens if I already own a resource(s) that is in the subscription bundle?

• • You will be able to use the resource both while you pay for a subscription and when you no longer have an Olive Tree subscription. 

Can I gift a subscription? 

• • We don't have a gift option set up for subscriptions yet. We hope to be able to offer this option in the future.
