Accessing Your QuickBooks Online Trial

If your instructor is providing you with the trial software, skip Part 1. Instead, you will get a link to access the trial. When you have that link, go to Part 2. (High school & middle school students: Your teacher will give you the link.)

Note! Labyrinth does not provide tech support for QuickBooks trial software.

• Issues obtaining a trial license: Contact SheerID
• Installation or registration issues: Contact education@intuit.com
• Intuit Education live chat support (M-F 6am-6pm PST)

If you are obtaining the trial software yourself (your school does not provide it), you will do so via SheerID. Most students are instantly verified. If not, or if your school is added as a custom school, you will go through a second-level verification process that can take about 20 minutes.

Part 1: Get Your License Number from Intuit

1. Go to https://intuit.me/labyrinth-online.

Use this link. Don't go to the Intuit Education main page!

2. Fill in the form entirely with your own information.
   

   

3. Click Verify and Continue.

You will either receive a verification message or you'll be asked to provide additional documentation for verification.
