Where registration gets hard
Tuition is a monthly chase
Every month someone sends invoices, follows up on late payments and figures out what a family owes after switching from three days to two.
Pickup is where things go wrong
A new babysitter, a different parent, a late bus. Staff need to know who is allowed to take each child, right there at the door.
Every school runs a little differently
Different days, different start dates, different coordinators. Spreadsheets multiply with every site you add.
How BackPR helps
How it works in BackPR
Days of the week and recurring tuition
Families choose the days they need. BackPR bills weekly, monthly or by term, prorates mid-term starts and holidays, and charges the saved card automatically.
Check-out against the authorized list
Staff open the day's roster on their phone, check children in, and check them out with the family's PIN or QR code. Absences can notify parents automatically.
One account, many schools
Each school site has its own programs, roster and coordinator access, while your office sees enrollment and balances across every site.
