Frequently asked questions
Can I start on Free and upgrade later?+
Yes. Create a Free listing first, then move to Featured or Premium whenever you want more visibility, photos, analytics, or featured placement. Your listing and account stay the same — you only change the plan.
What happens if I sign in as a vendor?+
After you sign in with a vendor account, you can claim or manage your listing, update your profile, and open billing or upgrade from your vendor dashboard. If you are already logged in as a vendor, plan buttons on this page take you straight to checkout.
Do families pay to use the directory?+
No. Browsing Florida Education Vendors is free for families. Only vendors choose a paid plan if they want Featured or Premium features.
How does the verified badge work?+
Featured and Premium listings can show a verified badge once your business details meet our review criteria, so families see that your listing has been checked by our team — not just self-published.
How does family messaging work?+
On Premium, families can send you messages through the site. You receive email notifications for new threads and can read and reply from your vendor portal, so scholarship questions stay organized in one place.
What is included in the monthly stats report?+
Premium vendors get a concise monthly summary of listing activity — for example views, saves, and message volume — so you can see whether families are engaging and adjust your profile or promo text accordingly.
Premium puts you at the top of search -- Featured placement, promo copy, video, and social links help busy Florida parents notice you first -- before they scroll to the next vendor.
