Pay with Braintree
Plans for school bus tracking, paid through Braintree: cards and PayPal.
In short
The School Bus Tracker accepts payments for its plans through Braintree, which is a PayPal service used in many countries. Schools or parents buy a plan, which adds prepaid credit used for each child for each day they ride.
What a payment buys
The School Bus Tracker runs on prepaid credit. Schools, or parents, buy a plan, which adds credit to their account. Credit is used for each child for each day they are booked to ride, so a child marked as not riding is not charged for that day.
Who pays
Each school is set to one of three arrangements: the school pays, the parents pay, or the school pays first and the parents are asked once the school's credit runs out. A school is warned before its credit runs out, rather than finding out on a morning nobody is booked onto a bus.
Paying from a link
A school can email a parent a link to pay for a plan, which the parent can use without signing in.
