★★★★★

"We replaced three separate tools with CenterWide. Billing that used to take a full day now takes twenty minutes, and parents love the app."

Questions

Frequently asked

How long does it take to get started?
Most centers are live within a week. We migrate your family, child, and billing data for free, then help you configure classrooms, tuition, and your registration form.
Do parents need to download an app?
Families get a mobile-friendly parent portal they can use in any browser or add to their home screen — no app store required. They see daily reports, photos, messages, and can pay tuition in a tap.
How do payments work?
CenterWide processes card and ACH payments securely through Stripe. You can enable autopay, recurring charges, split billing across multiple payers, and generate per-child year-end tax statements.
Is my data secure?
Yes. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is role-based and least-privilege, and payments are PCI-compliant via Stripe.
Can I manage more than one location?
Absolutely. CenterWide is multi-location from the ground up, with per-center settings and organization-wide rollup reporting.
