A stronger school starts with connected parents
Your parent community is full of talented people who barely know each other professionally. Parent Marketplace changes that — giving every family a reason to engage and invest more deeply in the community you've built.
Parents already share something important
Every family at your school has chosen the same community for their children. That shared decision creates a foundation of trust that most professional networks can only dream of.
Parent Marketplace builds on that trust — giving parents a private, verified space to discover each other professionally and form the kind of relationships that make a school community truly special.

Common questions
Won't parents feel like they're being sold to?
The opposite. Parents love having a trusted space to connect professionally with people they already know. The business side grows naturally from the community.
Is it really free for the school?
Yes. The Free with Ads plan costs schools nothing. We place tasteful local advertising and share 50% of that revenue back to your school each month.
How does parent verification work?
You upload a roster (name + email) via CSV. We send personalized invitation emails. Only parents on your roster can join — nobody else gets in.
Can our PTA run this instead of the school?
Absolutely — one of our most popular setups. The PTA signs up, manages the community, and keeps the revenue as fundraising income.
What data do you collect from parents?
Only what parents choose to share: name, business info, and professional interests. Never shared with other schools or third parties.
How long does setup take?
Your subdomain and branded marketplace are ready within 24 hours. Most schools are fully live with active parents within a week.
