Sproutly is a financial service platform for Educational institutions. The platform simplifies all educational payments, financial management, and access to credit. It provides educational institutions with cash visibility, accurate data reports, and financial control, ensuring consistent revenue. Educational administrators benefit from various payment methods, simplified access and dedicated support. Sproutly aims to help educational institutions focus on teaching and for families  to access education by removing financial burdens.

Sproutly's Version 1 was originally designed exclusively for K12 Schools. It had its limitations and we were able to learn about processes, problem points and a better way to serve educational institutions across Nigeria and Africa. Building the Version 2 was a 14 months journey. There were loads and loads of features which will penultimately solve a lot of problems for educational institutions but we decided to focus on what can give the most impact without overwhelming our users with a plethora of features all at once. A few things that was considered was its customizable ability and for the Version to be used by various types of educational institutions not limited to K12, but also Edtechs, Universities, Colleges, School Associations and Alumni and Special Schools.

There are two interactive platforms in Version 2, which are:

• The Webapp - School Dashboard
• The Sproutly Mobile - For Billing Managers (Students/ Parents/Guardians) 

Features on the Webapp - School Dashboard

1. Invoicing and Payment collection (both offline and online) : With Sproutly Version 2, schools can now streamline financial processes with advanced invoicing and payment collection. Schools can issue invoices for charges like tuition, excursions, and books, payable offline by the school or online by billing managers (parents/guardians). This all-in-one solution manages invoices, auto-receipts, and payments, simplifying financial management and enhancing transparency.

1. Team and Group management: Sproutly Version 2 offers robust team and group management. School administrators can invite and collaborate with staff via the Sproutly Dashboard, creating groups by classifications like Nursery to Primary or by departments like Finance and Academic. This enhances coordination, communication, and operational efficiency, aligning all team members towards common goals.

1. Customized Wallets and Bill payments: Schools can now use customized wallets for efficient financial management. Different wallets can receive specific payments, like tuition fees or uniform payments, ensuring proper fund allocation. They also support bill payments for services like airtime, data, electricity, and educational fees (JAMB, WAEC) directly from the school’s dashboard, simplifying financial operations and transaction management.

1. Insights and Overview of Records and Transactions: Our advanced reporting feature offers full transparency and comprehensive insights into school operations. Administrators can easily access and analyze detailed reports to make informed decisions and gain a clear understanding of the school’s performance. This feature provides valuable data visibility, enabling schools to monitor financial health, track payments, and assess overall operational efficiency. By offering actionable insights, Sproutly Version 2 helps school administrators stay informed and proactive in managing their institutions.

1. Paylink: With Sproutly Version 2, schools can now create collections for various payments using the Paylink feature. When a Paylink collection is created, a unique link is generated that can be shared with users to facilitate payments. This feature enables schools to create and receive payments from anyone, making the process of collecting fees for events, activities, or other purposes straightforward and efficient. Paylink provides a versatile tool for schools to manage and streamline their payment collections, ensuring that payments are received promptly and securely.

1. Sproutly Referral and Loyalty Points: Sproutly Version 2 introduces a referral and loyalty points system. Schools earn points for actions like referrals and purchases, which can be converted to cash or donated to SEE2035, supporting K-12 education. Users can earn referral bonuses up to 100,000 naira, incentivising platform engagement and supporting educational initiatives.

1. Record Management: Sproutly’s Administrative Services streamline record management for schools, handling billing accounts for students, staff, or vendors. The platform allows easy creation, editing, and modification of account information, with each account given a unique National Student Unique Identity (NSUI) for precise tracking. This ensures accurate and organized record-keeping.

Feature on the Sproutly Mobile App

1. Pay invoice in Tranche: The Sproutly mobile app offers the flexibility to pay school invoices in tranches. Billing managers can manage their finances more effectively by breaking down large payments into smaller, more manageable amounts. This feature is particularly useful for handling significant expenses such as tuition fees, ensuring that payments can be made without causing financial strain.

1. Pay with wallet: Billing managers can make payments directly from their wallet, which is created and assigned to them once compliance is completed within the app. This wallet can be funded through various methods, offering a convenient and secure way to handle school-related expenses. The wallet feature streamlines transactions, enabling users to settle invoices quickly and other payments without repeatedly entering payment details.

1. Pay with Transfer (Checkout service): Sproutly V2 Mobile App includes a seamless checkout service that supports payments via bank transfer. Billing managers  can transfer funds directly from their bank accounts to settle school invoices and other charges. This feature integrates with Providus Bank, ensuring that transfers are processed efficiently and securely.

1.  Bill payments and airtime: The app allows Billing managers to handle various bill payments directly from their mobile devices. This includes utility bills, internet services, education, and more. Additionally, users can purchase airtime for their mobile phones, making the app a versatile tool for managing multiple financial needs in one place.

1. How-to guide: The app features a comprehensive how-to guide that assists users in navigating the platform and utilizing its various features. This guide includes step-by-step instructions, FAQs, and tips for making the most of the app. Whether it's setting up a wallet, making payments, or understanding the invoice system, the how-to guide ensures that users can easily access the information they need.

1. Perks: The Sproutly mobile app offers a range of perks and rewards for its users. Parents and guardians can enjoy discounts, special offers, and exclusive deals from partner merchants. These perks provide added value to users, making their engagement with the app more rewarding and beneficial.

1. Gift cards: Parents and guardians can purchase and send gift cards through the mobile app. These gift cards can be used for various purposes, such as school supplies, books, or even as a token of appreciation for teachers. The gift card feature adds a layer of convenience, allowing users to give thoughtful and useful gifts directly from the app.

1.  Paylinks: The Paylink feature allows parents and guardians to make payments through unique links generated for specific collections. When a paylink is shared with them, they can use it to quickly and securely complete transactions. This feature simplifies the payment process for various school-related expenses, making it easier for users to manage and track their payments.
