How Payments Work
Once you pay for your first session, payments going forward are effortless!
After each session, your tutor submits an invoice to our admin team, where we double check it.
You will receive an email from TutorCruncher, our software provider, to make payment online.
If you have direct debit setup, or have paid via card before, after that first payment you won't need to lift a finger! Your tutor still submits an invoice after each session, we double check it before approving it, the invoice is sent to your email and now the payments are automatically charged.
If you decide at any time you want to cancel, stop or reschedule tutoring, extra payments will be suspended. As long as you cancel 24 hours before a booked session, there's no charge!
Cancel, Reschedule and Extend with Complete Flexibility!
With Seymour Tutors, paying your tutor is easy. Cancel or reschedule with complete flexibility. Payments are made online via card or direct debit and once you pay for your first session, payments going forward are effortless!
After each session, your tutor will submit an invoice to Seymour Tutors. Someone on our admin team will double check it before approving it. You will then receive an email from TutorCruncher, our software provider, with a copy of the invoice from them and a link to make payment online via card or setup direct debit. After submitting your card details using our payment provider Stripe or GoCardless, both as secure and safe as Paypal, your payment will be accepted.
After that first payment, if you decide to continue with us, you won't need to lift a finger! Your tutor still submits an invoice after each session, we double check it before approving it, the invoice is sent to your email and now the payment is automatically charged. So you don't have the hassle of entering card details every week, remembering to pay that one tutor each week or doing a tedious bank transfer after every tutoring session. If you decide at any time you want to cancel, stop or reschedule tutoring, extra payments will be suspended. As long as you cancel 24 hours before a booked session, there's no charge!
