Quick answer

Mark an application fee as paid on the applicant's profile, with the payment method and date, or mark many in bulk. You can also send payment reminders and receipts.

Marking an Applicant as PAID Manually

By clicking on an applicant, you can easily mark their application fee as paid, while indicating the payment method (e.g. check, bank transfer) and the date of payment. To complete the reconciliation, click on the Reconcile Payment button.

The applicant family will automatically be sent an e-mail receipt of payment when their application fee is marked as paid and reconciled. Credit card payments are automatically reconciled and marked as paid.
