Educational Impact
Ipad/tablet and Mobile friendly (works on Android & iOs). As long as you have internet, you can use on any device!
MagicBooking’s onboarding is fast and flexible.
- Setup can be fast-tracked at no extra cost.
- If your team is available for onboarding and training, you can go live within 48 hours.
- The typical onboarding timeline is a competitive 1–3 weeks, depending on your availability and how quickly you want to transition.
MagicBooking supports easy data import from your existing system.
- You can import parent and child records to create accounts immediately.
- Parents then complete any additional required information themselves, including medical details, consents, allergies, authorised collectors, and emergency contacts.
- This reduces admin time and speeds up the onboarding process.
MagicBooking ensures a smooth financial handover.
- You can migrate opening balances, credits, and outstanding debts during setup so your accounts start cleanly from day one.
Best practice for launching:
- Many organisations choose to go live at the start of a new invoicing cycle — for example, a new school term, half-term, or holiday programme — to ensure the cleanest transition.
We offer online training through screen-sharing sessions, and can be booked in hourly slots, although we do recommend four hours in total, which is split across two sessions.
After your initial training, our Customer Care team are on-hand to provide assistance with any questions or queries during office hours. Our online help desk enables you to chat with us and raise support tickets, check the current status of any requests and see a record of all previous interactions. In addition, we provide extensive self-serve online resources including bite-size videos and a comprehensive user guide available online 24/7
