Running a children’s activity business is rewarding but also full of small tasks that eat up time. We get it. That’s why Zooza 3.4 is here to make things smoother, faster, and smarter for admins, tutors, and parents.
From automating attendance to simplifying payments, this update is all about taking the hassle out of your daily operations so you can focus on what truly matters—helping kids learn and grow.
Let’s dive into the highlights!
Attendance Made Effortless
Automatic Attendance
Tired of clicking to mark who showed up? With automatic attendance, those who were set to attend will now be marked as “Attended” without you lifting a finger. It works moving forward once enabled—no need to manually track anymore! Activate Automatic Attendance
Attendance Summary for Specific Registrations
Need to add notes for a specific client? Now, you can! In addition to a general lesson summary at the group level, you can leave personalized updates per registration. This is perfect for keeping parents in the loop with quick insights into their child’s progress. Check It Out
Lesson Summary in Event/Lesson Reminders
Ensure students and parents are prepared for their upcoming lessons by including a lesson summary in morning reminders. This can include instructions, tasks, or anything they should know beforehand. New dynamic tag: ‘EVENT_PUBLIC_SUMMARY‘
Trial Ended? Send an Attendance Summary
After a trial class, parents often wonder how their child did. Now, if the tutor or admin fills out an attendance summary, it can be automatically included in the follow-up message, making parent communication easier and more insightful. New dynamic tag: ‘EVENT_PUBLIC_SUMMARY’.
New Features in Payments on Registration
Payments are now more flexible than ever. You can transfer payments between registrations, correct misapplied payments, and manage installments—all with ease.
Transfer of Received Payment
Assigned a payment to the wrong registration? No problem. Now you can transfer payments without refunding or making corrections—just a seamless shift from one registration to another. Try It Here
Correction of Received Payment
Instead of issuing refunds for small mistakes, you can now make direct corrections to received payments (only for non-online payments). Check It Out
Installments Overview
Need a better way to track payment plans? The new Installments Overview lets you monitor upcoming payments based on date range and status, giving you a clear view of what’s due. View Installments
