Questions

What schools ask us first.

Which payment gateway do parents pay through?
The school’s payment gateway, which can be set up for each section.
Where does the money go?
To the school. Every payment is checked with the gateway before the bill is marked paid.
Can fees be paid in instalments?
Part payments work today, from the student’s e-wallet or at the desk.
How is a refund approved?
One person raises it and a different person approves it. A large refund by bank transfer needs a second approver.
