It’s rare for MasterClass to offer deals. And when they do, they only run for a short time.
But to celebrate Mother’s Day, MasterClass is offering up to 35% off select plans.
In this article I’ll be telling you all you need to know about the MasterClass Mother’s Day Offer, how it works, and whether it really is a good deal.
Here’s what I’ll be covering:
- What is the MasterClass Mother’s Day promotion’?
- Is the MasterClass Mother’s Day promotion a good deal?
- How the deal works
- Masterclass Mother’s Day eligibility
- What does the All-Access Pass include?

What is the MasterClass Mother’s Day promotion?
The MasterClass Mother’s Day promotion gives you up to 35% off the following MasterClass Plans:
- 25% off Duo Membership – 1 account 2 users
- 35% off Family Membership – 1 account 6 users
The offer is to celebrate Mother’s Day. So you can take advantage of it for yourself, or gift it to someone else. This offer ends soon!
Is the MasterClass Mother’s Day offer a good deal?
All that glisters is not gold as they say. And sometimes deals that look great aren’t. Often prices are hiked ahead of time so you think you are getting a good deal when you’re not.
This is not the case with MasterClass.
An individual 12 month MasterClass membership has been priced at $180 for a very long time.
But Master Class recently introduced two new membership plans (for full details of MasterClass costs click here):
- Duo (2 users) $20 per month (billed annually $240)
- Family (6 users) $23 per month (billed annually $276)
It is these plans that the discount applies to. And guess what happens when you apply the discount?
| Plan | Usual Cost | Discounted Cost |
| Duo | $240 | $180 (25% off) |
| Family | $276 | $180 (35% off) |
So, in effect, this deal gives you 12 months unlimited access to MasterClass for 2-6 users for the same price as a single membership.
In the interests of transparency, both the Duo and Family Plans only provide one account. However, each allows you to download unlimited numbers of MasterClasses so the other users can access them at their leisure for a full year.
You cannot download MasterClasses with an individual MasterClass membership.
Rare MasterClass deal
Aside from being good value for money, MasterClass deals are incredibly rare.
If you’re looking for a better one to come along, you may not find one. And you’ll likely be waiting a really long time!

Step 2: Choose whether to Sign Up (for yourself) or give MasterClass as a gift

MasterClass Mother’s Day offer eligibility
To be eligible for the MasterClass deal you must:
- Not have a current active annual pass membership*
- Provide MasterClass with valid payment details
- Sign up to MasterClass directly (not through a 3rd party provider like Amazon/Roku/App Store)
* If you’ve purchased a Duo or Family membership within 30 days of 26th April (which is when this offer started) you can contact MasterClass here and request they apply the discount to your purchase
What does a Duo or Family MasterClass membership include?
Like the individual membership, the Duo and Family memberships provide unlimited access to all 180+ courses available on MasterClass.
However, unlike individual membership, Duo and Family memberships allow you to download all the MasterClasses so they can be enjoyed by another user (Duo) or up to five other users (family membership).
While your membership is active, you can take as many MasterClasses as you like, as many times as you like. And you get to keep the workbooks that accompany them forever.

There are countless great options on MasterClass and they’re adding new classes all the time.

Advantages of MasterClass
MasterClass has made its name as a powerhouse in online learning, and for good reason.
Here are just some of the advantages of learning with MasterClass.
Passionate, revered instructors
The instructors on MasterClass are champions in their fields of expertise. The star studded cast includes Nobel Prize winners, Emmy and Academy Award holders, musical virtuosos and multiple Michelin starred chefs.
But the best part is they are passionate enough about what they do to devote months of their time into creating classes and pass on their secrets and hard earned wisdom to you, the audience.
Huge range of choice from a large library of classes
MasterClass has over 180 courses in eleven different categories and the platform adds new content every month.
Access to cohort based sessions
Cohort based learning is a major new development in eLearning and MasterClass has jumped right on board with it.
MasterClass sessions follow a time-bound, structured 30 day curriculum which you take with a cohort of fellow learners. They teach practical skills with step by step guidance from world-class instructors and support from an active community of peers.
Gives you freedom as a learner
An individual membership enables you to learn at your own pace and in a way that suits you. You can binge out, or take bite-size nibbles, on desktop, tablet, mobile Android TV, Amazon Fire TV and Roku players and devices.
And with duo and family membership you can download multiple different classes and have even more control over when and where you, and your friends and family, learn.
High production values and immersive content
A key part of all the MasterClasses I have taken is a storytelling style.
Combined with the lighting and the cinematic quality of MasterClass you really do feel drawn into the backstory of your teacher and how it informed the person they have become. And they’re more than just stories. Because they have been carefully chosen to illuminate the content being taught.
High quality downloadable materials that cement and support learning
As well as giving you high quality visual and immersive content, MasterClass provides downloadable workbooks that cement and aid learning.
Depending on the type of course the workbook is supporting, these include recipes, additional readings, links to supporting videos and podcasts, assignments and projects.
Final thoughts
The Mother’s Day offer is a great deal.
- MasterClass’ stable pricing means that it’s a real deal not an inflated scam
- The Mother’s Day deal allows up to 6 people to download and take MasterClasses for the price of one
- It is a thoughtful, educational gift
- MasterClass is an amazing platform for casual learning that’s fun and world-class
In fact, I actually first signed up to MasterClass with a rare buy one, gift one deal and I have no regrets. Definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made!
So what are you waiting for?
