Ways to use StudentPay

Every education provider has a different enrolment process. StudentPay can work alongside your team, connect into the enrolment journey you already have, or provide the complete student enrolment and payment-plan experience.

Choose the model that fits the way your organisation works today — and evolve it as your enrolment process changes.

StudentPay Agent Setup

Created with your team

Your staff create and manage the StudentPay payment-plan setup with the student as part of the sales or enrolment process. It is the simplest way to use StudentPay without changing or integrating your existing enrolment technology.

Your staff use StudentPay.

Best suited to providers who…

  • enrol students through a sales or admissions team
  • want staff to discuss payment options directly with students
  • do not need StudentPay embedded in an existing online enrolment system
  • want to start using StudentPay without an integration project
  • receive enrolments from phone, email, CRM, face-to-face or multiple channels

Fast to adopt. Easy for your team to control.

Agent Setup lets providers introduce StudentPay without rebuilding their enrolment process. Your team keeps control of the student conversation while StudentPay takes over the payment-management work that follows.

StudentPay Enrolment Integration

Fits your existing enrolment journey

StudentPay connects into the provider’s existing digital enrolment journey so payment-plan setup becomes part of the workflow you already use.

Your enrolment system uses StudentPay.

Best suited to providers who…

  • already have an online enrolment or application process
  • want payment-plan setup to sit inside that existing journey
  • want students to move from enrolment into payment setup without starting again
  • use an LMS, SMS, CRM or custom enrolment platform
  • want greater automation as enrolment volumes increase

How it works

  1. 1

    Student enrols with you

  2. 2

    Your enrolment journey connects to StudentPay

  3. 3

    Student completes payment setup

  4. 4

    StudentPay establishes the plan

  5. 5

    StudentPay manages payments

Key capabilities

  • API connection to StudentPay
  • Payment-plan setup inside your existing enrolment journey
  • Student completes payment setup without starting again
  • Payment-plan establishment
  • Managed payment processing
  • Student Portal access
  • Provider Portal access
  • Managed collections
  • Reporting and portfolio visibility
  • Sandbox and integration support

Keep the enrolment experience you already have.

Enrolment Integration adds StudentPay to an existing digital journey rather than asking the provider to replace it. Students move from enrolment into payment setup while StudentPay takes responsibility for managing the payment plan that follows.

StudentPay Enrolment Checkout

Enrolment and payment-plan experience

StudentPay provides the student-facing enrolment and payment-plan experience — including payment options, payment setup, agreements, acceptance and confirmation — rather than requiring the provider to build its own.

StudentPay provides the student-facing experience.

Best suited to providers who…

  • want students to complete enrolment online

Key capabilities

  • Student-facing enrolment and payment-plan experience
  • Payment options, setup, agreements, acceptance and confirmation
  • Upfront and payment-plan options
  • StudentPay plan creation
  • Student Portal access
  • Provider Portal visibility
  • Managed payments and collections
  • API available where a connection is needed

A complete digital path from enrolment to payment.

Enrolment Checkout gives providers a ready-made student journey without requiring them to build their own enrolment and StudentPay connection from scratch. Your brand stays front and centre, while StudentPay provides the enrolment and payment-plan experience behind it.

Which approach fits your enrolment process?

All three models give access to the same StudentPay payment-management platform. The difference is how the payment plan is set up.

StudentPay provides the student journey

Different enrolment journeys. The same managed payment platform.

Whichever way a student payment plan is created, StudentPay still manages the payment work that follows. The implementation model is the entry point — not the whole service.

  • Payment processing
  • Payment-plan management
  • Failed-payment management
  • Managed collections
  • Provider reporting
  • Provider Portal
  • Student Portal

Start with the model that fits today.

Providers do not have to make a permanent architectural choice on day one. Many begin with Agent Setup, then add Enrolment Integration or Enrolment Checkout as enrolment volumes or systems evolve. StudentPay can grow with the way your organisation enrols students, rather than forcing a major technology project before you start.
