Questions
Does it cost anything to join?
No. There is no joining fee and nothing to buy. Agents are paid commission only when a family or school they introduce pays for a subscription.
How much can I earn?
Commission rates and the payment schedule are explained in full to shortlisted applicants at interview.
Why do you need my National ID?
edPLEstar is used by children and their families, so we verify every agent. Shortlisted applicants send photos of their National ID to the edPLEstar team on WhatsApp. The photos are stored privately and only the edPLEstar team can see them.
Am I an employee of edPLEstar?
No. Agents are independent and work in their own time. You can stop at any time.
