No incentive was offered My experience has been great, so far! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I like the fact that you can do multiple billing cycles and that you can go in and make changes to a payment as long as it has not posted yet. #### Cons The fact that you can only take up to $3,000 at one time for families. I sometimes have to do 2 transactions for families that have more than one child for a 5 week month due to it exceeding the $3,000 limit. #### Vendor response Jody - We're so glad to hear that Tuition Express works wonders for your center and that you enjoy the flexibility of multiple billing cycles. It's true there are limits to the amount you can draft in a single transaction for one family as a protection to both the parents and the center. The good news is parents can pay any amount they choose when they initiate the payment themselves either online or at a check-in computer.

Customer Service is great although I feel they need to streamline their fees and consider a reduced amount or they may continue to lose customers. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Great all in one payment processing company that allows for Credit card and ach monthly, weekly and as needed. #### Cons The fees varied month to month and credit card to credit card even if they were all the same card type ie.visa, mastercard The ach batch fee is also rather high as well as a per account fee. --- ### Tuition Express Review from childcare company with 50+ locations - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Sarah H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Child Day Care Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall definitely a pleasant experience with TE. They have a seamless daily processing that in the 5+ years I've worked with them, I have almost never had any issues. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Since Procare Software used Tuition Express as their merchant processor there are a lot of automated processes and transaction reporting we can access right from Procare. We are always able to get clear guidance with Tuition Express. #### Cons Implementation could be a lot better. It feels very disconnected as we onboard new franchises to utilize TE as their processor. #### Reasons for switching to Tuition Express Zeamster customer service is horrible and Tuition Express agreed to work with us on pricing to make a switch a cost effective decision. --- ### Great software - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Leona T. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The benefits we’ve realized by using TE is that we get emails to see when payments are made before they even post to the account. This allows us to better budget when payments are coming in. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The best thing I like most about TE is the convenience of processing tuition payments along with electronic deposits of online payments. #### Cons The least thing I enjoy is the extra processing fees charged regardless of the amount of business you process. #### Reasons for choosing Tuition Express It had competitive pricing at the time we purchased a few years back and it was more convenient while we were using other apps that worked alongside TE. --- ### Tuition Express Payment Processing - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: crystal h. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I do not recommend this product for payment processing. I use tuition express because it was supposed to make my life easier. It indeed has not. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros I don't like it at all. I'm constantly having to auto import payments and refunding late fees because payments aren't posting to the accounts #### Cons There is nothing easy about tuition express. It is not user friendly. #### Reasons for choosing Tuition Express It was a all in one encompassing program that went with the childcare management software. We have since switched at our belvidere and mchenry locations and are working on switching the remainder schools. #### Vendor response We are sorry to hear you did not receive the level of service you expected with Procare. We are committed to our Customers and investing in our Customer Operations organization so we can provide best in class service.

Replied April 2023 --- ### Made my job easier - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Marissa S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Food Production - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, the benefits definitely outweigh the con. Since we had more than half our parents enrolled in automatic withdraws through TuitionExpress, it greatly decrease the beginning of the month rush of parents paying their bills. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros As a former childcare director, I love that Tuition Express can be set up to automatically withdraw from a parent's account. In the day and age of convenience, it's nice for parents to have one less payment to have to remember to pay. The best part: their bill gets paid! I also like that I have the option of parents paying in person if they prefer. Being able to swipe their card using the card reader is handy and saves me time so I don't have to manually type in card numbers. #### Cons We did have the system glitch on the office manager one time. She was trying to charge a customized amount rather than the whole balance and the customer ended up getting charge for the full balance due to this glitch-the screen went black for half a second. (It's hard to say if that was the internet or the software however) Unfortunately, there isn't a way to add the balance back onto the account so our company owner could only reimburse the customer via a check. --- ### Our rep Needs a Raise! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Dr Tiffany B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Tech Support was awesome. Great personality. Made my call enjoyable. If our rep ever ceases to work for you, I'd hire him. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It helps me to run multiple businesses and locations. #### Cons Sometimes the Cloud doesn't connect. Also, when I am at multiple locations, I have to hope I remembered to log out at my last location or I am stuck. --- ### WorldKids Survey - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nicole C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2018 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.
