Quizizz is now Wayground: what changed and what’s still free

Step-by-step workflow

1. 1

   Know why the name changed

   The company announced the rename on June 24, 2025. CEO Ankit Gupta said the platform had grown from a formative assessment tool into a place where teachers find and deliver instructional resources, and that the new name reflects that growth. Wayground’s own page explains the name as a mission “to help every student find their way within the common ground of the classroom.”

   Practical tip: The rename came with new features, including an AI generation hub, translation and reading-level adjustments, and lesson bundles.

2. 2

   Sign in the way you always did

   Wayground says you do not need to change anything in your account: you log in the same way and keep the same resources, classes, and functionality. Visiting quizizz.com now redirects to wayground.com, so old bookmarks still land in the right place. Ownership, the legal entity, and security practices stayed the same, and contracts signed with Quizizz Inc. remain valid.

   Practical tip: If a school filter blocks the new domain, ask IT to allow wayground.com; Wayground provides a link for IT teams.

3. 3

   Update student join instructions

   Students can join at wayground.com/join. Wayground says all earlier methods, including joinmyquiz.com and LMS integrations, keep working, so printed join instructions do not have to be replaced at once. Update slides and handouts when you next revise them so students see the current name.

   Practical tip: Test one join code from a student device on the school network before a live session.

4. 4

   Check what the free Basic plan covers

   Wayground’s plans page lists Basic as “free for every teacher, forever,” with no credit card. It includes assessments, presentations, passages, flashcards and videos; live and student-paced delivery; AI to generate, import, adapt, and explain; 20+ accommodations such as Read Aloud; and live data through Classroom Pulse. Wayground’s help center (updated May 12, 2026) lists the limits: up to 20 resources stored on your account, up to 5 resources shared per team, basic question types, and restricted copying of premium content. Wayground notes that features may vary by region.

   Practical tip: Wayground does not publish an AI usage cap on these pages, so check your account if you plan to generate a lot of content.

5. 5

   Decide whether you need more

   The other plan on Wayground’s plans page is School and District, priced by quote. It adds all 20+ question types, Canvas, Schoology, Clever, and ClassLink integrations, full AI grading with custom and state rubrics, and a dedicated customer success manager. If the free plan’s limits get in your way, compare that option with other tools built for your subject before you commit.

   Practical tip: Third-party sites quote different prices for individual paid plans; rely on Wayground’s own plans page or a quote.
