Getting started
Wesetitupwithyou.
Dualbrake works with each New Jersey school directly. We move your students in, load your agreement form and stay one email away.

2You upload your MVC-approved agreement form once. Families sign it in the family app.
3We agree on the price with your school before you start.
Questionsownersask.
Something else on your mind? Write to us.
Do families or instructors install an app from a store?
No. The family app and the instructor app open in the phone's browser and can be added to the home screen.
Do families pay for the app?
No. The family app is free for your students and parents.
Can families use Spanish?
Yes. Each person picks English or Spanish. The family app, the agreement and the reminders follow that choice.
Can families pay online?
Yes. Families pay by card in the family app, and the money goes to your school's own Stripe account. The office records cash and check too. Every payment gets a receipt.
Can we bring our current students?
Yes. Import them from a spreadsheet (CSV). Dualbrake checks each row and shows what it will save before it saves.
Is it only for New Jersey?
Dualbrake is made for New Jersey schools, with the NJ MVC rules built in.
