No “Tip” Feature
Many leading fee collection systems include a “tip” or “support the platform” feature that can mislead parents into thinking they are donating to the school.
ClearCollect will not include a “tipping feature” to stay as transparent as possible with our clients.
Through our research, we have found that most schools pay for multiple platforms, leading to higher annual fees. With ClearCollect, this all managed on one platform.

- Saves districts money
- Protects parents from unnecessary fees
- Eliminates confusing and misleading “tip” prompts
