Powered by PayPal Website Payments Pro, the TeachStreet e-commerce platform allows for credit card payments for a series of classes available for students. Teachers must include a listing and a profile in order to gain access to the online platform, which offers data and analytics, such as the number of visits and views, number of sales leads from e-mail messages, phone calls and site-visits.
TeachStreet includes over 135,000 classes and teachers, across almost 700 subjects and categories. The service charges students 5 percent for booking, while teachers must pay 4.9 representing the processing fee. Website Payments Pro allows merchants to accept payment directly on their website or by phone, fax and mail and customers to pay with all major debit and credit cards as well as PayPal balance and bank transfers.
