For UK DVSA ADIs & PDIs · GBP (£)
Lesson bookings and £10 deposits for UK driving instructors
Give pupils one clean booking link on WhatsApp, SMS, or Instagram. They pick an open slot, lock it with a £10 deposit or full payment in pounds sterling, and the money goes straight into your own UK Stripe account. Operated by SoloPayLink · Solo Digital Ltd (UK company no. 17220868).
Built around an independent ADI or PDI diary
£10 deposit blocks stop late gaps
Lock single 1-hour, 90-minute, or 2-hour lessons with a £10 upfront deposit (just £0.50 SoloPayLink fee on Starter) so last-minute cancellations stop costing you fuel and empty diary hours.
10-hour blocks, Pass Plus & test day
List manual or automatic single lessons, 10-hour prepaid blocks, motorway / Pass Plus sessions, and DVSA practical test-day warm-up + dual-control car hire.
Direct UK Stripe payouts in £
Payments settle directly into your own UK Stripe Connect bank account. SoloPayLink never holds pupil funds in a marketplace wallet.
Google Calendar & travel buffers
Add 15- or 30-minute travel buffers between postcodes, set a 24- or 48-hour cancellation notice window, and sync confirmed lessons to Google Calendar.
DVSA syllabus & progress records: SoloPayLink tracks lesson bookings, deposits, and remaining balances, and is not an official DVSA test booking portal or reflective log. Pupils still book practical tests on GOV.UK.
