Setting Up Instructor Compensation

A Complete Guide for Admins

Instructor compensation in PrepBase is centralized under the Payroll section of each instructor’s profile. This area allows admins to configure hourly rates, assign session category pricing, and manage bank account details for payout processing.

This guide walks you through each part of the compensation workflow with full clarity.

1. Accessing the Payroll Tab

  1. Go to Instructors from the left-side navigation menu.

  3. Click the Payroll tab from the top navigation bar.

You will now see three major sections:

  • Default Rate

The default rate is the primary compensation value for the instructor—used when a session does not fall under a special category.
