Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the K53 Sharp Dashboard
It's built for South African driving schools and independent instructors who want a single place to manage bookings, students, and instructors - without juggling spreadsheets, WhatsApp, and paper diaries.
No. The dashboard runs entirely in your browser at dashboard.k53sharp.co.za. It works on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
Schools on the Standard and Premium plans get listed inside the K53 Sharp learner app, where students browse and contact driving schools near them. Premium schools get top placement in recommendations and search.
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time from your dashboard, and we'll prorate your billing automatically.
You're billed monthly or annually for your subscription, and annual billing gives you two months free. We process payments through Paystack, our payment provider, who charges 2.9% + R1.00 per local transaction. Lesson payments between you and your students happen however you currently arrange them - we don't take a cut.
Payouts are handled by Paystack and settled directly to your registered South African bank account. It takes 2 working days after a customer pays for you to receive your payout - so payments received on Monday, for example, will be settled on Wednesday. You can track student payments from your K53 Sharp dashboard.
