Snatr vs Daftra: a comparison for teachers and tutoring center owners in Egypt (2026)

These prices come from Daftra's pricing page on 16 October 2026. The page opens on annual billing, marked "up to 30% off". So figures such as 489.5 and 1,960 EGP are the monthly price if you pay for the whole year upfront.

Daftra prices by the number of clients, invoices, users and branches. Basic allows 100 new clients and 100 invoices a month, Advanced 300 clients and 500 invoices, and Comprehensive has no limit. The educational centers page sends you to "customer relationship management" to record student files, so ask Daftra: does every student count as a client?

On Snatr, your plan counts students enrolled in a course or group on the platform. A center student who only attends at the branch, with no online enrolment, does not count, so the Starter plan can cover a center with hundreds of students. If you have 120 students enrolled online on Starter, you pay for 20 extra students at 15 EGP, which is 300 EGP once, not every month, and the seats stay yours.

On Snatr your price reaches you in full. The online payment commission is added on top of your price for the student to pay, and a student who pays you cash is recorded manually with no commission. See Snatr's prices in detail.

So with Daftra the money goes to your own account at the payment company, and its fees depend on your contract with them. That suits a center that already has a merchant account. If you do not, you will have to open one first.

On Snatr the money becomes available to withdraw after a holding period, currently 7 days, and the minimum withdrawal is currently 100 EGP. A code you sell for cash opens a course or a group, or adds credit for the student on your site.

Daftra follows up subscriptions with recurring invoices, instalments with due dates, and reminders for late instalments. In the price table, membership management starts from Advanced, and instalment management is on Comprehensive only. Snatr has no tracking of group fees or late payers.

At Snatr we measured the protection. Without the key the file comes out as noise, with a similarity to the original of only 10.6 dB. With the key it comes out intact at 59.9 dB, and the higher the number, the closer the picture is to the original.

Screen recording is not blocked on Snatr, and neither is a phone filming the screen. The watermark deters, because the student's name shows on the recording, but it is not proof. On iPhone and iPad the video plays normally, but the protection there is somewhat weaker against a technically skilled person.

If you sell recorded lessons, this is the biggest difference between the two. Daftra will record that the student paid, but its pages do not say how the lesson reaches them. Learn the details of video protection on Snatr.

Recording a live class on Snatr is a feature you switch on, and when it is on, the recording is added to the student group. Live streaming is not encrypted like uploaded video: it carries a watermark and a temporary link, and screen recording works.

Daftra brings rent, electricity and salaries for front-desk staff and teachers together with student fees in one ledger, and gives you your net profit. Snatr does not have this.

On Snatr, the QR card carries a signed code that cannot be forged, and the assistant scans it at the door. But a card can be photographed and sent to someone else, so this is attendance by card, not by fingerprint. Scanning needs internet.

The four assistant templates are front desk, branch supervisor, academic assistant and full access. If you remove a permission from an assistant, it is gone the same moment. On Daftra an extra user costs 294 EGP a month on annual billing, and 392 on monthly billing.

Daftra sends reminders automatically, especially about money, so parents know an instalment is due without the front desk calling them.

On Snatr, the advantage is that parents see the center and online in one portal: their child's attendance at the branch, and exam marks and payments if enrolled in your courses. The portal is view-only, and nobody can see a child who is not theirs.

That site is where students go to see your courses, pay and watch. So if you sell lessons online, it is your face to students and parents.

On Snatr, the custom domain is not available during the trial. Once it is connected, the old link redirects to it automatically, along with your Google ranking. Browse Snatr's designs.

The setup service is a real advantage if the center is large and its accounts are old, because the chart of accounts needs someone who knows it to set it up from the start.

On Snatr, your site closes when the trial ends without a subscription. Changing your plan after that goes through support.
