How do tickets work?

Tickets are used to play videos on Kanopy. You receive 9 tickets per month. Your tickets reset on the first day of the month, and unused tickets don’t roll over to the next month.

Note: Kanopy Kids doesn’t use tickets which means you can access an unlimited number of Kanopy Kids titles each month.

As you browse for titles, you’ll see the number of tickets required to watch each title and how long you have to watch it.
You can see your remaining tickets for the month in the top-right corner of the homepage.
