SCHOOL MARKETPLACE AND PAYMENTS

Your School Store.Your Payments. 0% EdiWay Commission.

Create an online school storefront inside the same connected platform your school already uses. Sell school products, collect payments for activities, manage orders and give parents and carers a simpler way to pay. And because EdiWay charges 0% marketplace commission, schools only pay the applicable Stripe payment-processing fees.

ONE CONNECTED SCHOOL STORE

Bring School PaymentsInto the EdiWay Platform.

Schools often rely on separate systems for payments, online shops, trips, clubs and family communication. EdiWay brings the marketplace closer to the learner and family relationship already held within the school platform. That means schools can manage:

Products

Create and manage items or services.

Parents and Carers

Connect purchases to the appropriate family account.

Learners

Keep learner-related purchases in the correct context.

Orders

See what has been purchased.

Payments

Connect checkout through Stripe where enabled.

Receipts

Give families a clearer record of their purchases.

School Workflows

Connect relevant purchases to trips, clubs, events and other school activity. One platform. Fewer disconnected systems.

Updates

Change product information as needed. This gives schools a practical ecommerce workspace without requiring a completely separate online-shop platform.

0% EDIWAY COMMISSION

Keep More of Every Payment.EdiWay Takes 0% Commission.

Schools only pay the applicable Stripe processing fees for payments handled through Stripe. That means EdiWay does not take another percentage from every uniform sale, trip payment, club payment or marketplace order.

Your school sets the price. Your school keeps the sale value, less the applicable Stripe processing fees.

PARENT AND CARER PAYMENTS

Make Paying the SchoolEasier for Families.

Parents and carers can access appropriate marketplace purchasing through their existing EdiWay family relationship. They can move through a familiar purchasing journey:

Browse

See relevant school products and services.

Select

Choose the appropriate item.

Basket

Bring purchases together.

Checkout

Complete the payment through the enabled Stripe workflow.

Order History

Review appropriate previous purchases.

Receipts

Keep payment information easier to find. Families do not need the school marketplace to become another disconnected account with no relationship to their child’s school experience.

MULTIPLE CHILDREN

One Family Experience.
Keep Each Purchase in Context.

Parents and carers may have more than one learner connected to EdiWay. Where a purchase relates to a particular learner, EdiWay can keep that relationship clear. One family login can support a more connected school experience without mixing unrelated learner records.

That helps distinguish:

TRIP PAYMENTS

Connect Paymentto the Trip Workflow.

School trips involve more than collecting money. EdiWay can connect the financial part of the process to the wider trip workflow. That can bring together relevant:

Trip Information

Keep the activity clear.

Parent and Carer

Connect the appropriate family relationship.

Learner

Keep the payment in the right context.

Payment

Record the relevant purchase.

Consent

Keep the family’s trip decision within the dedicated consent workflow.

Communication

Send appropriate trip information through the connected platform. Payment and consent remain separate. Paying for a trip does not automatically grant consent or confirm that a learner is approved to travel.

CLUBS, ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS

Collect PaymentsAround School Life.

The marketplace can also support payments associated with appropriate school activities.

Clubs

Collect applicable club charges.

Activities

Offer suitable paid activities.

Events

Make relevant event purchases available.

Resources

Sell school-approved learning material.

Other Opportunities

Create appropriate school-specific offers. The marketplace manages the commercial transaction. The underlying activity remains managed through the appropriate school workflow.

ORDERS AND SCHOOL OVERSIGHT

Know What Has Been Ordered.Keep the School in Control.

Authorised school users can review marketplace activity through the seller and administration experience. That can include:

Orders

See relevant purchases.

Understand what was sold.

Customers

View the information required to fulfil the order.

Payment Status

Understand the recorded transaction state.

Refunds

Manage appropriate refund workflows where enabled.

Order History

Keep previous activity accessible.

Store Management

Maintain the school marketplace over time. This gives schools a clearer operational view without giving marketplace users access to unrelated learner records.

STRIPE PAYMENTS

Payments Through Stripe.Marketplace Management Through EdiWay.

EdiWay connects marketplace checkout with Stripe. Stripe provides the external payment-processing infrastructure, while EdiWay provides the connected school marketplace experience around it. This allows the platform to bring together:

School Store

The products being offered.

Parent or Carer

The person making the purchase.

Learner Context

The relevant learner relationship where required.

Order

What was purchased.

Payment Status

The relevant recorded transaction state.

School Oversight

The information authorised staff need to manage the marketplace. Stripe processing fees apply according to the school’s active Stripe/payment arrangement. EdiWay adds 0% platform commission to marketplace sales.

CONNECTED TO THE FAMILY EXPERIENCE

Purchases Should NotLive in Isolation.

Because School Marketplace and Payments sits within EdiWay, appropriate payment information can connect naturally with the wider family experience. Parents and carers may move between:

School Purchases

See relevant marketplace orders.

Trips

Understand related activity.

Clubs and Events

Keep payments connected to school participation.

Communication

Receive appropriate updates.

Forms and Consent

Complete separate actions required by the school.

Learner Information

Return to the wider parent and learner workspace. This is part of EdiWay’s wider approach: one connected learner ecosystem rather than another standalone school-payment app.

PERMISSION-AWARE COMMERCE

Connect the Purchase.
Protect the Learner Record.

Marketplace access does not create access to the learner's wider school record. A school marketplace user may need information required to process or fulfil an order.

Marketplace access remains purpose-specific and permission-aware.
