Global product, GCC-ready billing, UAE-ready defaults, not a UAE-only product.

Why centres switch

Problems we solve

Common operational pain points for centres like yours, and how Clayox addresses them.

GCC currencies and local VAT

Each centre bills in its local currency (AED, SAR, QAR, KWD, BHD, or OMR) with its own VAT rate. Invoice-first billing with per-line taxable flags; deposits and registration fees stay outside the tax base when configured.

Parent expectations in the UAE

Daily activity feeds, messaging, and attendance visibility match what UAE families expect from modern nurseries.

Admissions digitisation

Magic-link onboarding replaces paper forms and PDF email threads during peak enrollment seasons.

Dedicated deployment per centre

Your own database, storage, and email identity, data is not shared between customers.

TRN on invoices

Configure centre legal details including TRN in centre settings for compliant invoicing.

In depth

How Clayox supports UAE nurseries and preschools

Operations for Dubai and Abu Dhabi nurseries

UAE operators often need clean records for admissions, attendance, fees, and parent communication. Clayox helps centres keep those operational trails in one system. We do not claim to replace KHDA, ADEK, or other authority guidance; align your policies with your advisers and local requirements.

Multilingual families are common. The product UI is English. On-demand AI translation lets staff and parents translate messages, broadcasts, and activity updates into 100+ languages, including Arabic.

GCC fee collection without accounting plug-ins

Billing runs, credit notes, parent statements, overdue reminders, and withdrawal proration are included. Currency, VAT rate, and timezone are configurable per centre so each GCC centre bills in its local currency (AED, SAR, QAR, KWD, BHD, or OMR) with its own VAT rate. Each invoice is in that centre's single currency. Payments are recorded manually or via parent proof upload. There is no online card gateway yet, and no Xero, QuickBooks, or Zoho Books integration.
