Payment Processing for Educational Institutions
Tuition collection, campus dining, bookstore payments, and student fees — unified on one platform with the security and compliance education demands.
Educational institutions process a wide range of payments: tuition installments, campus dining, bookstore purchases, athletic fees, event tickets, and donations. Each has different workflows, reporting needs, and compliance requirements. PaySec provides a unified payment platform that handles all of these under one account, with department-level reporting, payment plan support for tuition, and the PCI compliance and data security that educational institutions require. Network Offset Pricing reduces costs across every transaction type.
