What customization options are available with 360 Pro Max?

360 Pro Max allows you customize the look and feel of the Kahoot! experience. You can define your own brand colors and create multiple custom backgrounds which appears throughout Kahoot! sessions.

How many licenses do I need?

You need one license per Presenter. A Presenter is someone who will create and present kahoot sessions to colleagues, or will assign self paced kahoots. Teams with more than one presenter need one license for each presenter and should purchase a Team plan.

People that just play a kahoot (ie, joining the game via the PIN code) don’t require a Kahoot! account or license.

Do I have to pay for participants in a kahoot session?

No, participants don’t need an account or a business license to join kahoot sessions.

How many participants can join a kahoot session?

This varies by plan. The maximum possible is 2,000 simultaneous participants in one session which is possible with Kahoot! 360 Pro and Kahoot! 360 Pro Max.

What is the difference between an individual and team plan?

With an Individual plan, one person creates and hosts kahoots. It’s perfect for individual trainers, consultants, or team leads who want to boost engagement in presentations, meetings, and training sessions.

With a Team plan, multiple people can work together to co-create, present kahoots and view session reports all from a shared workspace. A Team plan is designed for learning & development, compliance, consulting, and people teams that deliver content. Team plans with three or more licenses are discounted compared to individual plans.

Can I share a login with a colleague?

No, as per our Terms and Conditions each license of Kahoot! is limited to one user and each license holder is responsible for preventing access to their account by anyone else. Sharing an account will impact the user experience and you may be prevented from accessing the platform at any time.

Instead, you should purchase a Team plan.

Can I use Kahoot! in languages other than English?

Yes! You can write questions and answers in any language to create a native language experience for participants. You can also play, create and host kahoots, view reports, and more in Spanish, French, Brazilian Portuguese, German, Italian, Norwegian, Swedish, Dutch, Turkish, Polish, Japanese, Arabic, Ukrainian, Korean, Indonesian, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.

Can I sign up for free?

Yes! You can always start for free. With a free account, you can now test drive Kahoot! 360 Pro, and upgrade at any time. No credit card needed.

What is an interactive presentation?

You can import existing slides or create new ones in Kahoot! and then add interactive questions and polls to create engaging presentations that everyone remembers. We call these interactive presentations. Our slide importer supports .ppt (PowerPoint), PDF (you can export Google Slides as PDFs), and .key (Keynote) formats. Read more about creating interactive presentations with Kahoot!.

Can I use Kahoot! to survey the audience?

Yes, you can gather participants’ feedback, opinions, and ideas in real-time with polls, word clouds, open-ended questions, and brainstorm.

What is player identifier?

Player identifier allows trainers and admins to identify individual participants when they join a new kahoot session, so you know exactly who it is beyond the anonymous on-screen nickname. When joining a new session, participants are required to enter their email address, which is then used for learner tracking and reporting . When joining via our mobile app, the email address is saved after the first time they enter it so they won’t have to enter it again when joining your kahoots in the future.

What is a Kahoot! Tournament?

A tournament is a great way to build engagement across a series of kahoot sessions. In the Reports section, you can create a tournament leaderboard by combining scores from multiple kahoots into one report which you can share with participants. You can only combine reports from kahoots that had the “player identifier” feature on, as player identifiers are necessary to collate data.
