About This Tutorial

With rate packages, you set up how much and how often your students will pay you. You can create any number of these to fit the needs of your music studio.

When you charge per semester/term, Duet will auto charge your students at the beginning of the semester/term. This beginning date is set by you when you create the rate package. This auto charge happens whether any lessons took place or not.

Note: You want to create your rate packages before adding any students, because you cannot add a student unless you assign them a rate package.

There are 4 ways to setup a package:

  • Per lesson

  • Per week(s)

  • Per month(s)

  • Per semester/term

This tutorial will walk you through creating a rate package that will charge your students per semester/term. Once you create a rate package you can assign it to as many students as you need.


Go to Your Rates Tab

  1. Click on your name > Settings. Located at the top right corner of the webpage.



    You are taken directly into your Studio tab by default.

  2. Click on the Rates tab.




Create a Rate Package to Charge Per Semester/Term

Let’s say you want to charge university students a flat fee of $500.00 per semester/term. Here is how you fill out the form.

    Name: University Students
    Amount: $500.00

    Period: Semester/Term
    Description: (optional) These are notes, for yourself, about the rate package.



  2. Choose the start date of the semester/term. Click on the calendar icon and choose a date. In this example we will choose March 1st, 2022.

    Note: This will be the date when Duet will auto charge your students for the semester/term.

    Your Semester/Term dates are now set.
