Tuition, aftercare, meals, and sibling discounts.
One mandate. No admin evenings.

Recurv puts every preschool fee, tuition, aftercare, meals, and sibling discounts alike, on one digital mandate and runs the collection automatically. Most SA preschools and ECD centres are currently run by an owner-principal who teaches all day and does the books at night, chasing the same few late parents, recalculating sibling discounts by hand, and billing aftercare and meals separately from tuition. With everything on one mandate, the person running the classroom gets an evening back.

WHERE PRESCHOOL BILLING BREAKS

You run the classroom. You shouldn't also run the books at 9pm.

Five places SA preschool and ECD centre owners lose time and money every month.

Tuition, aftercare, and meals all get billed differently

Base tuition, aftercare, snacks, and extra-murals are often invoiced through separate, manual steps instead of one clean bill.

RECURV ·

One mandate bills tuition and every add-on together, adjusted per child each month.

Sibling discounts and part-day rates mean recalculating every invoice

Different rates per child, per family, per half-day or full-day booking make manual invoicing slow and error-prone.

RECURV ·

Bill the correct variable amount per child automatically, with no manual recalculation each month.

A handful of late parents is a big hit on a small margin

With modest per-child fees, even two or three late payers can be the difference between a good month and a bad one.

RECURV ·

See who failed to pay and why the moment it happens, not weeks later.

New parent sign-up happens every year, for every family

Children move on to primary school within a few years, so mandate paperwork repeats constantly, unlike at a school where most families stay put.

RECURV ·

Parents sign a digital mandate in minutes at enrolment, with no paper forms to chase every January.

The owner is also the admin department

The person teaching all day is often the same person invoicing, chasing payments, and reconciling the bank statement at night.

RECURV ·

Automated collection and reconciliation mean less of the evening goes to admin.

WHAT RECURV DOES

Built for how preschools actually bill.

Five things that change the moment a preschool moves to Recurv.

01

Variable-amount mandate

One mandate covers tuition, aftercare, meals, and sibling discounts, billing what changes per child, per month.

02

Paperless parent sign-up

Parents complete a digital mandate in minutes at enrolment, with no paper forms to file or chase.

03

Bank verification at sign-up

Every new parent's bank account is checked automatically, catching typos before the first collection.

04

Automatic reconciliation

Bank results match to parent records automatically, so there's no more matching the bank statement by hand at night.

05

Predictable, accessible monthly cost

Month-to-month, no minimum, no annual lock-in, built to fit a single-site, single-owner business.

OWNER'S DASHBOARD

Every child, every fee,
on one screen.

Every collection run shows tuition, aftercare, and extras for every child, with each failure showing the reason, so you know exactly who to follow up with without opening a spreadsheet.

Single-pane monthly view
Tuition, aftercare, and extras for every child appear in one collection run.
Failure reasons, not just failures
You see why a payment failed and decide who to follow up with.
Less time on admin, more on the classroom
Reconciliation runs itself, instead of taking your evening.
