1. Grow your business with Cohortpay
Cohortpay will streamline your international payment process and save you money.
Cohort Solutions
recognises the added
complexities and
processes involved in
providing services to
international students.
Cohortpay provides a customised solution for your institution supporting you and your
business goals. Your Cohortpay account is accessed via a dashboard called Cohortflow,
which enables you to track all your student payments.
IMPLEMENTATION:
Implementation is a simple process, with minimal work required at your end:
• We create a Cohortpay web address for you, for example tabor.cohortpay.com; and
• Ensure you include this web address on any important communication/documentation
you issue to your students such as offer letters, invoices or perhaps relevant webpages.
STUDENT PROCESS:
Upon visiting this web address, the student is requested to provide a few details such as
their home country, invoice number or a student reference number. Students are then
offered a choice of available payment options local to their home country. Once a students'
identity is verified, the transfer process can begin.
A student may be offered one of two options:
1. Where the payment can be processed immediately (such as card payments or Alipay),
the student will be immediately taken to the Cohortpay payment page; or
2. Where payment is required by other means (such as a local bank transfer), the student
will be issued payment instructions via email.
TRANSFER OF FUNDS AND RECONCILIATION FILE TO PROVIDER:
Once the students' funds have been received by Cohortpay in their local currency, we will
send you a notification of receipt. This gives you the earliest possible indication of a students'
payment/offer acceptance. Funds are remitted to you in your local currency, together with a
payment reconciliation file on a daily basis or less frequently if you require.

2. COHORT ACCOUNT
Cohort Account is a feature available to all users seeking to manage commissions effectively.
The advantages Cohort Account increase with the Cohortflow version in use.
We can manage your outbound payments with less fees and competitive foreign exchange
rates. Your agent details are stored and process is simplified.
Cohortflow Pro users are provided with an additional advantage of automatically calculating
payable commissions rather than managing calculations externally. The accuracy and
efficiency offered by the automated commission statement features makes Cohortflow Pro a
worthwhile investment.
Once your agents have been configured in Cohortflow, providers can get started using
Cohort Account. Here’s how…
UPLOAD COMMISSION STATEMENTS FOR MANAGEMENT OF
COMMISSION PAYMENTS EXTERNALLY.
• Once basic agent details (e.g. name & contact details) have been entered, agents are
invited to setup their payment details. They are free to change these details at any time.
• The Education Provider should create a file detailing the amount payable to each agent.
• This file should then be uploaded to Cohortflow by the Provider to generate a single
invoice document.
• After reviewing the invoice and providing approval, Cohort Solutions will receive the
documentation and distribute funds accordingly notifying relevant agents.
• Agents can choose at any time to remit their funds to the home account.
AUTOMATED COMMISSION STATEMENT
★ COHORTFLOW PRO USERS ★
• Current student enrolment details can be exported from an existing student management
system and uploaded to Cohortflow to allocate students accurately to their agents.
• Statements are then automatically generated using the agent contracts and enrolment
information uploaded.
• Once commission statements are approved for correctness, payouts can be processed
with a single consolidated invoice document.
