Create and manage billing plans

A billing plan is your price list. You set it once, add children to it, and kidsday invoices their families automatically every cycle.

Billing model, name and cycle

  1. Under 1 · Billing model, choose Fixed (same price every month), Attendance (priced on days attended) or Hybrid (monthly base fee plus days attended).
  2. Enter a Plan name, e.g. “Full-time monthly”.
  3. Choose the Billing cycle and the Billing day – the day of the month invoices are generated.

Charges, tax and automation

  1. Under 2 · Charges & rules, set the base Tuition amount.
  2. Click Add a charge or discount to add extra lines. Pick an item from your price list (for example Music Lessons) and enter its amount. Use the toggle on each line to switch a rule off without deleting it.
  3. Under 3 · Tax & invoice, choose a Tax rate or keep Use space default.
  4. Decide on Auto-send generated invoices: on = invoices go to families automatically each cycle; off = they are created as drafts for you to review first.
