Checkout & Payment Options

When you enroll in a course, register for a technical track, or purchase an All-Catalog Pass, you complete your transaction through the secure checkout screen (/checkout/{uid}).

1. Supported Payment Channels

Savadub Institute supports domestic and international payment rails tailored to your region and currency:

1. Credit / Debit Card (Instant Access)

• Supported Cards: Visa, Mastercard, Verve, American Express.
• Gateways: Stripe, Paystack, and Flutterwave.
• Processing: Uses 3D-Secure 2.0 authentication. Upon successful transaction authorization, your course or track access unlocks immediately with zero delay.

2. Direct Bank Wire Transfer (Manual Verification)

• How it works: Select Direct Bank Transfer at checkout to view official Savadub Institute corporate banking details (including IBAN, SWIFT/BIC, Account Name, and Sort Code).
• Reference & Proof: Complete the transfer using your bank’s mobile app or portal. Enter your transaction reference code and upload a screenshot or PDF of your transfer receipt directly on the checkout screen.
• Activation: Our billing operations team verifies inbound wire funds (typically within 1 to 4 business hours). Once confirmed, your enrollment status automatically flips to active, and a notification email is dispatched.

3. Mobile Money & Regional Wallets

• Supported Services: M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money, and PayPal.
• Available automatically when selecting relevant currencies (e.g., KES, GHS, or USD).

2. Vouchers, Promo Codes & Scholarships

If you hold a discount code, employer training stipend, or institute scholarship grant:

1. Locate the Promo Code / Voucher input box on the right side of the checkout summary.
2. Enter your code and click Apply.
3. The checkout summary dynamically recalculates your balance before you finalize payment.

Voucher Types & Rules

• Percentage Discount: Deducts a set percentage (e.g., 20% OFF).
• Fixed Amount Discount: Deducts a fixed currency amount (e.g., $50 USD OFF).
• Universal vs. Scoped: Some promo codes apply across the entire catalog, while others are strictly scoped to a specific engineering track (e.g., AI Engineering) or individual course. If a code is scoped, the system validates whether your cart item matches the allowed scope.
• 100% Full Scholarship / Fellowship Grants: If you apply a 100% scholarship code, the payable total reduces to $0.00. The payment gateway is completely bypassed—clicking Complete Enrollment provisions your course access instantaneously without requiring card or bank details.

3. Official Invoices & Tax Receipts

Following every completed order:

• An official PDF invoice and payment receipt are automatically sent to your registered account email.
• You can view and download all past receipts at any time under Student Portal > Billing History.
• Each invoice contains the Savadub Institute corporate registration details, line-item curriculum breakdown, VAT/tax calculations, and transaction references for corporate reimbursement or tax filing.
