Interval function

Dear All,

The interval function is now released.



You can now set "Interval" to 30Min in your profile.

If you set the 30Min interval, the system will automatically block 30 minutes after the scheduled completion time of each request. Students will not be able to make requests during this time.

For example, if you have a 30 minute lesson starting at 16:00 the system will automatically block your schedule from 16:30 to 17:00. This could be useful if you would like to set aside some extra time between lessons in order to complete reviews or take a short rest.



Thank you.

Please check your course category

Dear All,



We are going to open a "Search Lessons" function in addition to Search Tutors this week.



In the Search Lessons page, you can easily search by Category as well as Language.
For example, you can search by English > Grammar, or English > Children's ,and so on.



To make this work properly, every service you have should be associated with a category.

So please log in to your account and click "Services", then check the category for each of your services.

Also, we recommend that you will register new services you are good at.



◇Why is category important?

If you have registered your service with category "English", it　shows when somebody searches with English.

On the other hand, If you have registered your service with category "English > Grammar" for example, it shows when somebody searches with English > Grammar as well as English.

As a result, it can be showed more often than just registering with Language.



◇Current Categories

We have only categories details of English because many students are aimed at studying English.

・Japanese

・English

-Beginner's

-Business

-For Children

-Job Interview Prep

-Test Prep (TOEIC, TOEFL, etc.)

-Travel

-Speaking & Pronunciation

-For English Teachers

-Grammar

-Songs

-Idioms

-Listening

-Reading

-Writing

・Mandarin(Chinese)

・Cantonese

・Italian

・Korean

・Spanish

・German

・French

・Portuguese

・Russian

・Other Languages



If you wish to add a languages or a new category, please feel free to mail us.
We will consider whether it would be possible.



Thank you!

Automatic billing function and sending multiple messages

Dear All,


The automatic billing function we promised last month is now up and running.



You can now set "Auto Billing" to ON in your profile - this will trigger the generation of a payment request on the first day of every month. This payment request will include fees for lessons completed during and prior to the previous month. E.g., The payment request generated on July 1 will include all outstanding lessons completed on or before June 31.

However, please note that the 1000 Yen minimum payout still applies, so a payment request won't be generated if your accumulated total is below this amount.

And don't worry if for some reason you forgot to "complete" a lesson for a particular month because that will automatically be picked up and incorporated in the next billing cycle.



That being said, you also still have the option to manually create your payment requests if you want more control over when and how much you'll be paid. But hopefully this will make it just a little easier for those who'd rather have it on auto-pilot.



Right. That's it for now. As usual, if you spot any bugs or issues with the new billing system please email us or leave them in the comments section of this article and we'll get on it as soon as we can.



One more thing...



You can now send a message to multiple students as long as they are registered in your favorites. Hope that helps.

Please Confirm

Dear Tutors!

Hi!

It is just a reminder about the Fees and Payment.

Please check out below.

(the old system:cafetalk.jp)

Payment for lessons done through the old platform (cafetalk.jp) will

be automatically calculated and paid out by the 15th as usual.

It is paid by Bilingual Partners Inc.

(the new system:cafetalk.com)

As you know, in the new system you have to make a "payment request" in

order to be paid.

For all Payment Requests made on or before the 3rd of the month,

payments will be made on the following 15th.

So if you want to be paid for fees of May, please make Payment Requests on your "My Page".

It is paid by Small Bridge Inc.

Also, as per the notice on this page

we are in the process of building an automatic billing function but it won't

be available for a few weeks yet, so please bear with us and create a

payment request for the month of May if you would like to be paid.

About fees and payments of the new cafetalk, please also look at this page.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.

Thank you!
