Frequently Asked Questions

Tuition Express processes payments four ways – customer initiated Online Payments, POS/Card Swipe, Recurring Credit Card and ACH transactions.

If you initiate an Online or POS Payment, you’ll know firsthand. If your provider processes a Recurring Credit Card or ACH Payment, you can receive free emailed receipts.

Report the error to your childcare provider immediately. It was most likely an honest mistake. Your provider will then adjust your account accordingly.

If you feel that the payment should not have been made, you have the right to dispute the charge. Contact your bank or credit card company.

No. No one has access to your account. By using Tuition Express, you’re simply giving your credit card company or bank permission to release what you owe your provider when it is due and payable.

It’s safe, convenient and easy. And it makes processing tuition and fee payments easier for your provider giving their staff even more time to care, nurture and teach your child.

Make sure you're using a valid email address and that it is typed in correctly. Make sure your email software isn't filtering the Tuition Express email (check your Bulk, Junk, or Trash folders). If you see it in one of those folders, you must remove the filter/add an exception to the filter to allow it to do directly to your Inbox (see your email software FAQ's to adjust it's mail/spam filtering). If you are using a work email address, your company's technology department may be filtering the email. Discuss it further with your IT department or change your email address to a private email address.

For payments that are initiated by your provider you must complete a new Parent Authorization form, attach a voided check from the new account (if applicable) and submit it to your provider. Your provider will then make the changes and notify Tuition Express. For online payments you can use any valid credit card at any time.
