Childcare Voucher Questions Answered:
How can I use Childcare Vouchers to pay for my sessions?
Yes! The way it works is you send your childcare vouchers across to PLAYtarium, then once they have processed they are added as credit on your PLAYtarium account, with which you can then use to make a booking.
How long does it take for my Childcare Vouchers to be added onto my PLAYtarium account?
It can take up to 10 working days from when you send a payment from your voucher company for it to process and clear into our bank. We recommend planning ahead of bookings by crediting your account monthly to ensure you have enough credit to cover your booking. If you do not have enough to cover your booking, you can pay for the remainder at the checkout with your card.
Alternatively you can make a partial booking while waiting for more vouchers to process, however you run the risk of sessions becoming fully booked during this time.
What if I pay too much and have credit that I don’t need?
When you stop using PLAYtarium, or if you have a drastic reduction in the amount of bookings you need, you are able to contact your childcare voucher provider and obtain their refund details. We can then send the amount to be refunded from your account back to the childcare voucher provider, who will then follow their companies procedures in refunding you - please note this varies from each childcare voucher provider and some may not issue refunds. PLease check with them directly for full details.
