What are some alternative methods to pay for childcare fees?
Hi parents of children attending childcare, I'd like to check if there are alternative methods to pay child care fees- asides from CDA and direct debit from a bank account. Would this be possible for My first Skool, E-bridge etc? Are there's credit card / grabpay or any other hacks that I should know about?

If there is no credit card, you can use cardup/ipaymy etc which allows you to pay invoices etc. The catch is there's a processing fee, around 2.6% though but since it's a decent amount I would say it's worth it to just pay that extra amount to get miles and cashback

I'm not a parent but you can consider using third party platforms like cardup.

I am a parent and most childcare don't accept credit cards. Only NETS and cheques. and bank GIRO.
CardUp and ipaymy allow you to pay merchants that does not accept credit card, but it is like sort of they paying them in cash for you...
so you do pay a small processing fee. not worth the trouble in my opinion.
