Getting started with QuoteCloud

Tutoring agreements with term packages parents sign

Weekly packages as one choice, the year's terms shown as repeating charges, and Term 1 paid when the parent signs.

Tutoring and coaching businesses use QuoteCloud to send a term agreement: weekly packages as a single choice, the term dates and charges for the year shown as repeating charges in the agreement, and the first term paid on signing. Later terms are invoiced by the business; QuoteCloud doesn't bill them.

A sample tutoring agreement from a fictional business, Larkfield Tutoring, open in the signing view on a tablet: three weekly packages with Steady chosen, the four terms of 2027 shown as repeating charges with Term 1 paid on signing and Terms 2 to 4 invoiced before each term, and the Term 1 fees of $841.50 including tax. The parent, Sofia Castellano, signs on the screen and the button changes to Signed.

One agreement shape for every kind of lesson

Packages per term, the year's charges shown, the first term paid on signing. The same template works well beyond maths tutoring.

  • Tutoring

    Subjects and year levels, one or two sessions a week, practice papers in exam terms.

  • Music lessons

    Lesson length as the package choice, with instrument hire or a book as an optional line.

  • Sports & swim coaching

    Squads or private sessions per term, with kit or a uniform as an extra.

  • Career & executive coaching

    A block of sessions as a package, paid on signing. More sessions go on a new document.

Term 1 in QuoteCloud, Terms 2 to 4 on your own invoices

Only Term 1 is paid in QuoteCloud, through PayPal or Stripe, straight after the parent signs. The later terms are part of the agreement the family signed, and you invoice each one from your own accounting software before the term starts.

If you set it up, Zapier's Document Payment Event trigger can pass the Term 1 payment to your accounts or a spreadsheet. Xero and QuickBooks Online are native on Business, otherwise they connect through Zapier.

  • Term 1 paid on signing, and the agreement is marked Paid
  • Terms 2 to 4 invoiced by you, before each term
  • No instalments, payment plans or reminders from QuoteCloud
  • A change of package mid-year is a revised agreement the parent signs

From assessment to Term 1, paid

How a tutoring or coaching business sends a term agreement with QuoteCloud.

  1. Set up the template

    Your packages as one choice, the term dates and fees as repeating charges, and your terms. Start from a template or have yours converted.

  2. Fill in the family

    The student's name, year, subject, tutor and session time, typed in or filled as data items.

  3. Send

    The parent gets an email link. Questions go in comments on the agreement, answered in the same thread.

  4. Choose & sign

    The parent picks a package, ticks or unticks extras and signs. An older student can sign too.

  5. Term 1 paid

    Term 1 is paid by card or PayPal on signing. You invoice the later terms; next year's offer can go out by bulk send.

Tutoring and coaching agreement questions

Can a tutoring agreement show every term's fees?

Yes. The term fees go in the agreement as repeating charges with each term's dates, so the family agrees the whole year before signing. Only Term 1 is paid in QuoteCloud, when the parent signs. You invoice Terms 2 to 4 yourself before each term; QuoteCloud doesn't bill later terms, run instalments or send payment reminders.

Can parents choose between tutoring packages?

Yes. Put your packages, such as one or two sessions a week, in a single-choice group with a price per term. The parent picks one in the agreement, and the Term 1 line, the tax and the amount due on signing follow the choice. Extras such as a workbook can be optional lines they tick or untick.

Can the parent and the student both sign?

Yes. Add a signature block for each signer, for example a parent and an older student. Each signs from their own email link, or in person on your device, with no account needed. Every signed agreement carries a certificate of authenticity and an audit trail, and you can ask for a one-time passcode by email before signing.

Can we take Term 1 by card or PayPal?

Yes. Connect Stripe or PayPal and set the payment on signing to the full Term 1 fee, or to a percentage or a fixed amount. The parent pays straight after signing and the agreement is marked Paid. Payments are on the Essentials plan and up.

Does QuoteCloud schedule lessons or track attendance?

No. QuoteCloud sends the agreement, collects the signatures and takes the Term 1 payment. Lesson scheduling, attendance and student progress stay in the tools you use now. Where those tools have a Zapier connector or an API, a signed agreement can start a step there, such as adding the student to a spreadsheet.

How do we send next term's offer to every family?

Use bulk send: one offer template goes to many families at once, each copy personalised with data items such as the student's name, subject and tutor. Each family opens, signs and pays in its own copy, and you see who has opened and accepted. Bulk send is on Essentials and up, with volume-based costs.
