Money Transfers for Tutors

Send a student or parent your link after class. They pay by card, with no invoices, no receipts, and no counting cash by hand.

For a math, English, or music tutor this saves time. You no longer have to collect cash or type out bank details every single time.

Picture this: you finish an online English lesson. You paste the link in the Zoom chat, the student pays by card, and the money is credited to your bank in GEL right away.

One link serves a whole year of students. You create it once and then send the same address to everyone, with no separate details to gather and no risk of a mistyped account number.

Donator takes 3% commission, so 97% of the lesson fee stays with you. If a lesson is 60 GEL, 60 GEL lands in your bank.

For a tutor with dozens of lessons a month, that is a real difference. Another platform's 5 to 10% cut would quietly take the fee of a lesson or two by the end of the month.

A 3% commission is taken on the way in and none on the way out.

Picture 20 lessons a week at 60 GEL. That is roughly 4,800 GEL a month. An 8% cut would take 384 GEL from you, the fee of six or seven lessons. With Donator that money is entirely yours.

Georgian and foreign cards work the same way. A student or parent abroad pays you with a foreign card as easily as a local one.

This matters for a tutor of Georgian language, history, or school subjects who teaches diaspora children online. A Georgian parent in London or Brussels pays with a European card, and the money reaches you in GEL.

You do not have to ask them to open a special wallet. They pay with the card they already have.

For diaspora families, keeping the Georgian language alive matters, and you are answering that need. The parent does not have to set up a foreign transfer system, they pay with the card they already hold, and you receive lari to a Georgian bank.

With the official TBC and Bank of Georgia partnership, money lands instantly in GEL straight to your Georgian bank.

There is no waiting for a foreign wallet or a conversion. You receive lari in the bank you use every day.

Instant payout means that the moment a lesson ends, you know the money has arrived. There is no end-of-month reconciliation of who paid and who did not.

Step one: register on Donator, create your page, and add your Georgian bank account.

Step two: save the link and send it to a student or parent after class, or put it in your profile. The payer opens the link, types the amount, enters their card, and confirms.

Step three: the amount is credited to your bank in GEL automatically. There is no separate withdrawal, the money is already on the account you added.

Tamar is a math tutor with 18 lessons a week at 55 GEL each, including three diaspora students from Brussels.

By the end of the month her students paid roughly 3,960 GEL in total, some with Georgian cards and some with European ones.

On a platform charging 8%, Tamar would have lost around 316 GEL. On Donator she received the full 3,960 GEL in lari to her Georgian bank, diaspora payments included, with no manual reconciliation and no waiting on a conversion.

Her workflow did not change. She simply sent the same link after each lesson and watched the fees arrive whole.

'Is it really 0%?' Yes, Donator does not take a percentage, the full fee is yours.

'Is the payment safe?' Cards are processed by Georgian banks with a secure system, and you never see the student's card number.

'How does the parent confirm payment?' The parent keeps their card payment confirmation, and you can see the money arrive in lari to your bank.

'How is this different from a foreign tool?' PayPal and Wise often restrict Georgia and take a conversion cut. Donator is in GEL, for Georgian banks, instantly.

Many streamers search DonationAlerts or Streamlabs when they want setup or an alternative. For education money transfers in Georgia, GEL payout is often the real friction.

On Donator the OBS alert shows right away, viewers pay with any card, and money goes to TBC or Bank of Georgia. You can keep the same alert habit and fix payouts locally.

Many streamers start with DonationAlerts or Streamlabs, because those are the names people type when they search for an OBS donation alert, a donation page, or an alternative to a foreign tool. StreamElements often shows up in the same shortlist.

In Georgia those products are often built for other markets: foreign wallets, awkward withdrawals, or fees that never land cleanly in GEL. Patreon and PayPal still fit some creator formats, but they do not always replace live stream donations with payout to a Georgian bank.

Donator is built so a viewer can pay with any card, Georgian or foreign, the alert can show in OBS right away, and the money settles in GEL to TBC or Bank of Georgia. If you already used DonationAlerts or Streamlabs, you can keep the same alert habit and fix payouts locally.
