Payment friction at Education & Tutoring usually shows up long before anyone reads the monthly statement. That matches what we hear: tuition plans and course payments that rebill cleanly, online or in person. We see statements go sideways when recurring billing that is clumsy or quietly drops saved cards stacks with chasing invoices and waiting on checks to clear. You get recurring & saved cards, secure, developer-friendly online payments with no mystery gateway markups, and a written savings guarantee behind the rate.
