Tutor Payment Split Ledger.
An app idea for tutoring and coaching centers.

What the search found

Who pays

Coaching center owner pays.

The problem

At month end the owner and tutors disagree about how many classes ran and what was deducted. Tutors say they were shorted and the owner has to rebuild the numbers from chat messages.

The gap

Preply and similar marketplaces handle commission inside their own platform only. Generic commission trackers are built for insurance agencies. Nothing is built for a small center that splits fees with tutors it pays directly.

Already out there

• Preply commission model help.preply.com

  Handles tutor commission but only for lessons booked and paid inside Preply. Does nothing for a center paying tutors off platform.

• Commission Tracker commission-tracker.com

  Commission statements and payout tracking built for insurance agencies, not tutoring.

• Commission Split Calculator template notion.com

  A manual spreadsheet template. No shared record, no per class log, no dispute history.

People asking for it

• What are normal commission rates reddit.com

  Tutor says the student pays 25 pounds and they only get 15, so the company takes 40 percent.

• Confirmation that it's common for tutoring agencies to keep reddit.com

  Tutors describe agencies keeping more than 45 percent of what parents pay.

The big assumption

That center owners want a transparent shared ledger when opacity currently works in their favour.
