Please consider the pros and cons of renting vs. purchasing first. 1. Wink provides a patented dedicated learning device for young children and operates on a 'rental' basis so that families can use it while minimizing upfront cost during the learning period. Since it is a 'rental,' Wink is the only learning service on the market that allows flexible device swaps to a different model at no additional cost based on the parent's and student's needs. For repairs, we ship a replacement promptly to avoid disrupting your child’s learning. 2. Please also consider that with other companies that sell the learning device, you may have to pay a cancellation fee for the device if you stop learning, and repairs can be costly.
