Hi Tiemo,

I assume you mean Volume Purchase Program for Education… right?

I’ve set all of my apps to be available with the “education discount” you just check the appropriate radio button when setting the price of the app … the education institutions must have an account with Apple… and, if they buy at least 20 copies of an app, the apps are “half price” based on the price you set. My paid apps are listed at $.99 (US) and then are discounted to $.49 automatically when the educational institution buys at least 20 copies.

be well,
randy
