Case Study: See How a Child Care Center Transformed Payment Collection with Procare

Video Transcript

How was it before digital payments?

Just even a couple of weeks that I was you know, when we were in transition and I was receiving the checks and cash, like, the amount of time I spent just doing deposits and stuff like that was, like, it was very surprising to me how labor intensive it actually was.

How is it now with digital payments?

You know, and then I set everybody up on their on their plan, and I really don’t have to do anything except just, like, maybe check once a week, just make sure the invoices went through or the payments went through.

So, yeah, that was good. And, yeah, just not having to worry about having cash in the center or people writing receipts, stuff like that. That’s definitely a big load off my mind.

What do your families like about digital payments?

Really, we’re happy about the digital payments, and not having to worry about remembering their checkbook every day or or every week rather or bringing in cash or whatever.

Any last thoughts on Procare?

Like I said, I can’t imagine doing this without without Procare, and it’s worth its weight in gold. It really is.
