PCI Compliance is worth the effort!

If you process credit cards, then you must maintain annual PCI compliance — there are no exceptions to this rule. If you are not PCI Compliant, you could be paying anywhere from $29.95 to $49.95 in penalty fees every month!

No one wants to pay a penalty! All you need to do to avoid unnecessary fees is to become PCI compliant. And you only have to do this once each year!

To verify your compliance status, check your monthly merchant statement by logging into your CardPointe account. To become compliant, you have two options: (1) use our handy online PCI guide to speed your way to self-assessment compliance, or (2) contact ClassJuggler Support to request we help you complete your PCI annual compliance.

Have a Class You’d Like to Suggest to a Customer?

If you have the Customer Portal add-on feature enabled, you'll see a special option on your Class Maintenance page named "Create Class Email Link." You'll find this handy button in the upper-right of the class maintenance screen. This button provides you a convenient way to create an email to a customer that has the details of a selected class you want to send to them.

The email it generates will also contain a link that, when clicked, takes the customer right to your Customer Portal, where the class will be pre-selected for them on the Shop for Classes screen. Neat!

This feature allows for very personal attention for a specific class you may wish to suggest to one of your customers.

Celebrate Earth Day’s 52nd Year this April

The story of the first Earth Day: On April 22, 1970, Americans marched and demonstrated in the streets for a healthy, sustainable environment in massive rallies across the US.

Those marching were estimated at 20 million people total. They came from 10,000 elementary and high schools, 2,000 colleges, and over 1,000 communities. It is rumored that the date April 22 was chosen because it fell between colleges’ spring breaks and final exams.

Not only did the first Earth Day turn out an impressive amount of people, it also achieved an unusual political alignment. Republicans and Democrats and people from all demographics — union members, farmers, scientists, and politicians — came together on behalf of the environment.

Even more impressive is that all of the organizing was done without emails, cell phones, the internet, or even fax machines! This makes the success of the first Earth Day even more incredible.
