How a dance studio really runs

At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for dance studios: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.

The rush

Dance studios bill tuition each month, collect recital fees once a year and sell costumes and shoes in between.

The menu

Tuition by class or by family, recital fees, costumes and merchandise, often with sibling discounts.

The payment mix

Cards on file for tuition with occasional cash and a heavy peak around enrollment and recital season.

The people

Front desk staff handle parents and instructors need attendance and payment reports.

The hardware layout

A Station Duo at the front desk, a Mini for the costume closet and a Flex at the recital box office.

The core device is the Clover Station Duo.

Station Duo: Front desk
Mini: Costume closet
Flex: Recital box office

Settings worth getting right

Decide who can open the drawer and keep that list short.
Give each person their own login and limit refunds and discounts to managers.
Put your five best sellers on the first screen so new hires find them without hunting.
Check the connection indicator at open so a dropped Wi-Fi link is found before the rush.
Build modifiers once so tickets read the same at the counter, the kitchen and in reports.

What to avoid

Taking tuition by check and cash and entering it later makes it impossible to see who is behind.

Setup and training

Our team ships hardware configured, then comes on site to place it, connect it, build your items and train your staff. We stay on the line through your first service.

How the catalog is built

Tuition by class and family, with sibling discounts. Costumes and recital fees are separate items.

A dance studio runs on a school-year rhythm: enrollment in late summer, tuition each month, a recital in spring. Tuition status is the number to read weekly, recital and costume fees are best collected at set dates by link and a sibling discount applied automatically keeps the front desk from doing arithmetic.

The case to plan for

Costumes are non-returnable by nature; post the policy and take payment at order.

Common questions

Can I bill tuition monthly?

At Merchant Fund Express, recurring billing tools can support monthly tuition; we confirm the right setup for your classes.

Can I collect recital fees?

Fees can be sold as items and paid at the desk or by invoice.

Can I take a deposit when a client books?

Yes. Deposits can be recorded as partial payments and applied at the appointment.

What if I am already under a processing contract?

Tell us the term and the equipment arrangement. We will explain what switching would involve and tell you honestly if waiting makes more sense.

What will this cost me?

There is no price list on purpose. Your quote is built from your monthly card sales, your average ticket and the devices you need, so call (305) 384-8391 and we will price your actual setup.

Can I give sibling discounts?

Discounts can be applied to tuition so a second or third family member is priced automatically, which keeps the front desk from doing arithmetic with a line of parents waiting.

Can parents pay by link?

Invoices include a payment link, so a parent can pay tuition or recital fees from their phone without a trip to the desk, which helps in the weeks around recital deadlines.
