How do I upload a profile pic?2021-05-08T01:00:24+02:00

First option (recommended)

BrodyOnline has full support for the Gravatar system. Gravatar is an image and public profile system that follows you from site to site appearing beside your name when you do things like comment or post. This is an external service and is supported by many websites around the world. Also on brodyOnline.com.

If you register on www.gravatar.com with the email you use on BrodyOnline, this image will automatically be transferred to BrodyOnline and work seamless with your student profile and the comments at the Cocktail Bar.

Second option (NOT recommended)

We also store profile pics locally, but there can be some issues synchronising the profile pic betweed the student profile and the message boards.

Go to your student dashboard and click ‘Settings’. At the bottom of the picture placeholder, click on the little camera. Now upload your photo.

I use a different currency in my country, can I pay in Euro (€) ?2022-03-25T00:40:50+01:00

All prices are shown in Euro (€) because the courses are taught from Belgium, Europe.

Important to know, In Europe a comma is used to separate the decimals. For example €1,50 stands for €1 and 50 cents.
In the United States and some other countries, they often use a period.

If you have another currency in your country (Dollar, Yen, …), you will have no problem paying in your own currency. Once you enter the payment process, you will be directed to your bank which will display the prices in your home currency.

Our payment provider (Molly BV) accepts ‘American Express’, ‘Visa’ and ‘Mastercard’ payments.

In some cases the card is declined. Unfortunately, we cannot see the reason for refusal from our side.

Several reasons are possible:

  • Only cards with 3d-secure are allowed
  • You need to verify your payment with your smartphone or a key
  • Your card does not allow payments to Europe for safety reasons
  • You entered the wrong card number or CSV key

If your card is declined multiple times, try choosing PayPal as payment method.
You can use PayPal with your credit card without having a PayPal account!

If that doesn’t work either, choose bank transfer as payment method. You can transfer your payment with a unique number to the account of out payment provider. Please note that it can take up to 5-7 days for a bank transfer to arrive.
