Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best billing model for tutoring?
Package model works best: sell blocks of sessions (4, 8, 12 hours) at discount. Monthly unlimited programs work for high-frequency students. Per-session billing has more friction and lower retention.
How do I handle multi-child families?
Create family accounts, link students together. Apply multi-student discounts at package level. Charge one card for all students. Square and most systems support this with customer notes/groups.
