For Music & Art Schools, how you take payment day to day decides what your statement actually costs. In practice: monthly lessons and class tuition that rebill on time. That gets expensive fast: recurring billing that is clumsy or quietly drops saved cards, plus failed renewals and churn from declined member cards. Gateway focuses on recurring & saved cards: tokenized cards on file with reliable rebilling, card-updater, and smart retries. Transparent interchange-plus and a specialist who answers.
