WebSee the amount, due date and status for each child and each month. For transfer or cash, the teacher’s “How to pay” note is shown. You are told by email when a new invoice is created and when a payment is confirmed.
- Guardian usage fee
- Free. The classroom pays Aiyori’s usage fee, and guardians are not counted.
- Tuition
- Tuition is between the classroom and the guardian. The classroom decides the amount, billing day and how to pay. Aiyori does not hold tuition and takes no fee.
- How to pay
- Depending on the classroom, there is card, bank transfer or cash (invoice), and so on. In a classroom that takes cards, you register your card from the link the teacher sends. Card numbers are handled by the payment company Stripe; Aiyori never receives them.
- Checking bills
- In “Invoices and payment” on the web, you can see the amount, due date and status for each child and month, and a PDF of the invoice. The iPhone and iPad app shows unpaid bills with the child’s name, the month, the amount and the due date (in classrooms that take bank transfer or cash, the teacher’s payment instructions are shown too). You pay and register cards on the web.
- Late payment
- After the due date, you are reminded up to 3 times by email and notification. Nothing is stopped automatically; the teacher decides what to do.
Guardian consent
In classrooms in Japan, children under 16 can’t hand in photos, videos or voice recordings, or exchange one-to-one messages with the teacher, until a guardian gives consent (they can still hand in text and handwriting on screen).
On the consent screen, you read five points before agreeing: what is collected, who can see it, when it is deleted, messages, and withdrawing consent. You can withdraw consent later from the guardian screen on the web.
