How do I make payments?

How to Make Payments using Stripe?

It’s easy for students and parents to complete credit or debit card payments securely using Stripe.  Stripe is a payment platform that allows businesses to accept online payments.  

1.  When you sign up, I will create and send an invoice to you.  In our first session, we will decide how many recurrring sessions will work for you.  Remember, the first session is free, and you can always end tutoring at any time.  

2.  The invoice will show the invoice number, issuing date, due timing (number of days until due), and due date.

3.  You'll provide necessary information, such as your card number, expiry date and CVC (3-digit code) on back of card.

4.  Double-check all entered information for accuracy. 

5.  Once the transaction is successfully sent, Stripe will send a confirmation to the email address you provided.  You may also see a confirmation message on the website.
