Common questions

Does ScholarLedger guarantee reimbursement?

No. ScholarLedger structures your documentation to meet published FTC-PEP requirements. Final approval is determined solely by Step Up for Students.

Is ScholarLedger affiliated with Step Up for Students?

No. ScholarLedger is an independent documentation platform. We are not affiliated with Step Up for Students or the Florida Department of Education.

Do tutors need to pay?

Tutors create a free account at no cost and receive 100% of their stated rate on every payment. A flat 10% platform fee is paid by the parent on top of the tutor's rate.

Can I use ScholarLedger just for documentation without paying tutors through it?

Sessions must be paid through ScholarLedger to become eligible for invoice generation and reimbursement documentation.
