Manage your semester schedule, check enrolment numbers and adjust courses – straight from your smartphone. Whether language courses, health workshops or creative classes: you have a complete overview of every department and can react immediately when needed.

Your participants discover courses on the go, book in just a few taps and receive automatic reminders before each session.

Individual Customisation for Your College Identity

Bookicorn can be fully adapted to the identity of your community college. Colours, logo, texts and the entire booking interface integrate seamlessly into your website – either as an embedded widget or a standalone course overview. For participants, the system appears as a natural part of the college website, not an external tool.

A consistent appearance builds trust and credibility – especially important for public education institutions. From the semester programme through the course detail page to the booking confirmation: everything carries your branding. Instructors and department heads immediately recognise it as the official system of their college.

Individual Customisation for Your College Identity

0% Commission on All Course Fees

Your community college keeps all course fees with no percentage taken and no hidden deductions from the platform. Every booking – whether a language course, health workshop or professional development – brings in the full amount. Only the standard transaction fees from the payment provider apply to online payments.

For municipal education providers this is especially relevant: every euro goes into your course offer instead of platform fees. Across a semester programme with hundreds of bookings, the savings add up considerably. This lets you keep course fees socially affordable while investing in new educational programmes – without compromising on digital infrastructure.

0% Commission on All Course Fees

Flexible Payment Options for College Participants

Offer your participants multiple payment methods: credit card, SEPA direct debit, PayPal, Apple Pay or Google Pay via Stripe. Alternatively, participants can pay by bank transfer or cash at the office – ideal for older participants who prefer traditional payment methods.

With the credit system, frequent bookers can preload credit and reserve courses even faster. For companies enrolling employees in college courses, collective invoicing is available. This way, the payment process adapts to every target group – from students to retirees, from individual bookers to corporate bookings.
