For Tutors

You set the price.
We handle the rest.

Set your own hourly rate, teach on your schedule, and keep the majority of every session. TutorNexus takes a small platform cut. That's all.

Tiers are based on completed sessions and only ever go up. Your rate is fixed when a lesson is booked. Group sessions earn the same payout rate on 75% per-student group pricing.

48-hour protection

Earnings auto-release 48 hours after the session ends if no dispute is raised. Protects both sides: students get a fair window to flag issues, and you get paid on a predictable rhythm.

Withdraw any time

Send released funds to your bank via a secure payment gateway. No monthly cycles. Minimum withdrawal: R100. Withdrawals normally take up to 3 business days.

Sell your notes too

List study guides and practice papers on the Marketplace and keep 75% of every sale. Passive income on top of your session earnings.

All payouts processed through a secure payment gateway. POPIA-compliant, encrypted, and audit-logged on every transaction.

Payment Security

How money moves on the platform.

Only deposits and withdrawals touch a secure payment gateway. Every internal transfer (lessons, marketplace purchases, webinars) is a virtual ledger entry. No money changes hands until the work is done and confirmed.

Virtual internal transfers

Lessons, marketplace, and webinar payments never touch the payment gateway. They are instant ledger entries with zero extra fees.

48-hour security hold

Tutor earnings are held for 48 hours after lesson completion before being credited, protecting all parties.

Billing & commitment

1Monthly plans are billed in advance by saved card through a secure payment gateway. Annual plans are billed a year in advance at 20% off.
2Prices are in South African Rand. TutorNexus is not registered for VAT, so no VAT is added.
3If a payment fails, it is retried automatically and we email you that day. If it still doesn't go through, your features stay on for 3 days' grace, then the plan moves to Basic.
4Changed your mind? Cancel within 7 days of first subscribing for a full refund.
5You can cancel a monthly plan at any time. It keeps working until the end of the month you've paid for, with no penalty.
6You can cancel an annual plan at any time on 20 business days' notice. A reasonable cancellation penalty may apply, as the Consumer Protection Act allows.

The full rules are in our Terms of Service, clause 7.
