Secure and Effortless Child Care Payment Processing

Procare’s child care billing software makes tuition collection a seamless experience for child care providers and families. The platform was built with child care centers and schools in mind, allowing for convenient online and secure payments that ensure you get your tuition on time.

Our payment processing solution gives your child care center all the digital payment options you need — electronic fund transfer (EFT), online or via our child care mobile app. Centers using our billing solution save up to 12 hours per month in time spent billing and collecting tuition.

Automated Child Care Payments Make Life Easier

Choose any combination of electronic payment options to accept at your child care center, daycare or preschool. Every payment, whether initiated by you or by your families, posts automatically to your family accounts and funds appear the very next day. Enjoy seamless integration between our child care payment processing platform and your Procare child care management program. 

Timely Payments Made Anytime or Anywhere

Over HALF of millennial parents have never written a check. Ensure that tuition payments are fast and easy by having families pay online through any computer or mobile device. With Procare child care billing, families can easily access tuition statements and their payment history, as well as set up forms of payment quickly.

Recurring Payments / Electronic Fund Transfers (EFT) 

Take control of your tuition collection by initiating recurring payments on a weekly or monthly basis, or on a schedule of your choice. Payments transfer from each payer’s bank account or credit card (if applicable) directly to your account with funds made available to you by the next business day. 

Payment at Check-in

Allow families to quickly and easily make payments as they check their children in to your center. Payments are posted directly to the family’s ledger in Procare and receipts are emailed automatically. Procare also offers card readers that are easy to set up and allow your center to accept credit card payments in person.

Automate Child Care Payments

Have peace of mind that payments will always come on time. Procare not only automates your child care invoicing – safely and securely – but also provides parents with frequent reminders and allows for flexibility with the payment methods you’re able to accept. Electronic payments mean you’ll receive your funds faster.

Simplify Payroll

Save yourself hours while knowing your employees are all getting paid on time for theirs. Procare’s payroll and time clock software accurately tracks staff’s entry and exit times, automatically calculates all checks at once, leverages direct deposit functions and runs accurate summary reports.

Streamline Tracking

Eliminate the paperwork and hours of work that comes with reconciling sign-in/out sheets through Procare’s integrated tracking software, which automatically updates families’ balances to ensure accurate billing.
