How Karo works
Issue invoice
Import your students and fee structure. Generate term invoices in one click.
WhatsApp payment link
Each family gets a tappable link — one for siblings combined, one per child, your choice.
Auto reconciliation
Payments attach to the right student, update balances live, and clear open invoices.
Instant receipt
The guardian receives a branded receipt on WhatsApp — no manual work for your bursar.
Everything a bursar's office actually needs

Guardians check any child's balance from a private link. Zero phone calls to your office.
One-link family billing
Siblings roll up into a single family bill so parents pay once for all their children.
