2. You may manually enter the data into the system as well.
3. We can also handle the upload for you, but at a charge, depending on the size of the institution and or data.
Will the Pricing ever change?
Yes. We review pricing every 2 years to keep up with inflation and to reflect new features and improvements. This ensures schools get more value with each update. This starts after the academic year in which your school onboards. So, if your school onboards in the 2024/2025 academic year, the next pricing review will be in the 2027/2028 academic year.
Increases are typically between 10–15% (on the unit cost per student per term, not on your total bill) every 2 years
Why the price difference for schools with students below 100?
A higher per-student fee applies for schools with population less than 100 due to higher setup and support costs. Schools unlock cheaper per-student rates once they hit 100+ Students.
How am I billed?
We only bill you for the total active Students in your school, in a given term.
So for example, if you had 250 Students in first term for which you paid GHC 10 per student for a Standard plan, should your active Students rise in second term to say, 300, then you'll be paying GHC 9 per student. Please refer to the pricing range to correctly determine this.
A School however would pay the minimum price if the total active students is less than the minimum of 30
How am I billed for a subsequent term?
Your active student count from the previous term is used to calculate your bill for a new term
What if we paid our bill at the start of the term but now the school has even more Students before the term ends?
Invoices are issued at the start of each academic term based on the number of active students enrolled at that time.
If additional students are enrolled after the term’s invoice has been issued (including mid-term admissions), a supplementary invoice will be generated for those students.
The school may choose to:
1. Pay the supplementary invoice at the end of the current term, or
2. Have the amount added to the subsequent term’s invoice.
For example we’ll assume:
Standard Plan is being used for a 100 students.
Rate per student (just an example):
30 – 50 = GHS 20
51 – 99 = GHS 15
100 – 250 = GHS 10
Term 1 (Start of Term)
Active students: 100
Applicable tier: 100–250 students → GHS 10/student
Invoice = 100 × 10 = GHS 1,000
Mid-Term (New Admissions)
50 new students join.
Supplementary invoice = 50 × 10 = GHS 500
The school can:
Pay the GHS 500 immediately, OR Roll it into the Term 2 invoice.
Term 2 (Start of Term)
Active students: 150 (100 from Term 1 + 50 new from mid-term)
Applicable tier: 100–250 students → GHS 10/student
Invoice = 150 × 10 = GHS 1,500
If the school rolled over the mid-term invoice from Term 1:
Total due = 1,500 + 500 = GHS 2,000
What if a School over-reports their active Students to enjoy some services?
"Some Services" may include Discounts or pricing.
Well if you are using our system, we'll definitely know the number of active Students you have.
False reporting leads to penalties
Do you offer discounts?
Yes. 5% Termly and 8% Yearly Discount available for early payment, applicable to 100+ Schools
What if I don't need all Features / Modules?
Applicable to Standard Package:
The Dashboard for Students and Parents can be disabled if you don't require it, which you can get a discount for. Select "Not Required" in the Dashboard field when calculating your School's cost
Applicable to Gold and Platinum Packages:
Some features / modules are core to running a School. Aside that, speak to us to disable the features (few) you may not need and give you the quote for the rest.
You're better off downgrading to a lower package if excessive.
I don't need Dashboard for Parents & Students in my School
Applicable to Standard Package:
If you don't require Parents and Students to login in your School, thus the system should only be available to your Staff, you can opt out of those modules / features. You can then calculate your cost by selecting "Not Required" in the Dashboard field
My Student population is less than 30, can I still onboard?
Yes you can. We will onboard you but since our minimum is 30 to keep up with operational cost, inflation and other factors, you'd have to enter 30 and select any plan you want, to calculate your cost.
Is the Android app free for all Schools under Platinum?
No, the Android app is a complimentary add-on for schools with 300+ students.
If we don’t need the Android app, do we get a discount on our pricing?
No, the Android app is a complimentary add-on for schools with 300+ students. The cost of the app itself is not built into your per-student pricing, so there is no deduction or refund if you choose not to use it. Only the yearly maintenance fee applies if you decide to activate and use the app.
Are the add-ons available for all Schools?
Yes they are. Find the ones you need, then add to the volume pricing for your Students, to know the Total Cost
