At TuitionBox we recommend that when paying for your tutoring service you use a credit card, debit card, and or Paypal. Never give out your bank details or transfer money directly to the tutor’s bank account. The safest and most convenient way to pay for your tutoring service is through Paypal.
The benefits of PayPal Buyer Protection mean you never pay for your tutoring session by bank transfer. PayPal Buyer Protection is a safeguard that PayPal offers to its customers in the event that they are not satisfied with an item or service they have purchased. This program provides customers with a resolution system that helps them get their money back if something goes wrong with the purchase. Additionally, PayPal will help you dispute charges and protect your account from being suspended or closed due to fraudulent activities.
In the event that a student is not satisfied with their tutor or course, PayPal Buyer Protection offers a resolution system that can help them get their money back. If something goes wrong with the purchase (for example, if the tutor does not live up to expectations), PayPal will help you dispute charges and protect your account from being suspended or closed due to fraudulent activities. PayPal Buyer Protection is an extra layer of security for tutors and course creators, and it helps make customers feel more confident about their purchases.
Tutors and course developers can be paid quickly with PayPal. PayPal is an efficient payment solution that allows tutors and course creators to receive payments quickly. This helps eliminate the need for wait times or long processing times, which can lead to dissatisfaction among students. PayPal also offers a secure platform for tutoring transactions, which protects both the tutor and the student from fraud.
The benefits of PayPal Buyer Protection:
NEVER PAY UPFRONT
Another way to protect yourself from fraud and fraudulent behavior is to never pay upfront or for block bookings or to pay down a deposit. Genuine Tutors will be looking to develop ongoing teaching relationships with their tutees. Furthermore, they should conduct themselves in a professional manner. For example, they are in essence operating a small business. Thus, they should not demand payment before providing their tutoring service. If the tutor insists on taking a small deposit when you make the booking, then simply pay through PayPal or a credit card. This way you will be protected through legislation. Therefore, if things do not work out and you feel that you have been a victim of fraud, then you have some recourse and you will be able to claim back a full refund.
Where possible do not pay down a deposit when making a booking with your potential tutor. Only pay for the hourly rate quoted on the TuitionBox website or the agreed amount that you agree to when communicating with your tutor. If your tutor insists on a booking deposit, then only pay a minimum amount. For example, 10% of the tuition fee. Thus, on an hourly rate of £65 a 10% deposit would amount to £6.5. Furthermore, only pay the deposit through PayPal, or another reputable card processing company, and where possible use a credit card as this will afford you the maximum amount of protection against fraud.
Lastly, but equally important. NEVER PAY IN CASH. Paying in cash provides you with no protection at all. So remember to use a reputable payment gateway, such as Paypal.
Maintaining financial security is key, and that's why we advise you to never pay in cash. This is especially important when it comes to online payments, as there are no guarantees that your transactions will go smoothly. With a payment gateway like PayPal, you're guaranteed that your transactions will be secure and easy to manage. Plus, you won't have to worry about losing any money if something goes wrong. So why not make the switch today and enjoy all the benefits that come with using a reputable payment gateway?
