An educational institution in the evening: students on campus, a registration on a laptop and a stand where people pay by card

Aduno Pay for education and courses

One education provider. Many payment routes. One solution.

Course booking online, payment at reception, a music lesson or lunch service: Aduno Pay connects the different payment situations at your educational institution through one platform. Online, on site, mobile — with or without a till.

Payment situations

Where people pay in education.

Four situations, four requirements. Scroll through — each one has a solution that fits.

  1. A person books a course on a laptop and pays online right away

    01Online registration

    Book courses and pay right away

    Language course, further training, workshop or seminar: today people mostly register online. With integrated online payment, the registration becomes a completed booking straight away — not an invoice somebody has to chase.

    Matching solution

    • Online payment right inside the booking flow
    • Credit and debit cards as well as mobile payment
    • A payment reference that matches booking and payment
    • Integration into existing booking or course platforms
    • Automatic payment confirmation
  2. A course participant pays with her card at the reception of an educational institution

    02Reception

    At reception and in the office: settled on the spot

    Course fees, enrolments, certificates or extra services: whatever comes up on site is paid right away and recorded cleanly — no invoice, no chasing.

    03Lessons

    Pay for the lesson on the spot

    Music lesson, driving lesson, tutoring or one-to-one coaching: where billing is per lesson, the payment should happen where the teaching happens — not later on an invoice somebody has to chase.

Till and payment

On the device: select, take payment, done.

Not every educational institution needs its own till system at every payment point. Courses, products and services can be stored right on the payment device: your staff tap the item and the amount is taken over automatically.

This is what a range looks like

Language course B2
CHF 680.00
Course materials
CHF 45.00
Textbook
CHF 62.00
Certificate of attendance
CHF 25.00

The amounts in the picture are an example. Which courses, products and services are stored at which amounts is up to you — we set the range up before it goes live.

Five steps on the device

  1. Tap the item

    The stored range appears right on the device.

  2. The amount is there

    The price is taken over automatically. Nothing to key in, nothing to recalculate.

  3. The customer pays

    Card, smartphone or TWINT on the same device. Cash payments can be recorded too.

  4. Issue the receipt

    Printed or digital, depending on what someone needs.

  5. The sale is recorded

    Product, amount, time and payment point are stored.

Accounting

From the payment into your accounts.

The route every single amount takes — and the point where it passes into your own processing.

This is how the data comes out

  • Transaction list as a file, per payment point or for the whole institution
  • Payout overview with the transactions it is made of
  • Reporting by payment point
  • Regular exports instead of printing by hand
  • A technical interface for automated workflows

How the data actually reaches your accounting or your existing systems, we work out from the software you use. This page promises no ready-made interface to a particular product.
