Online-Gebühreneinzug mit Amazon Payment Services für Hochschulen

Collect college fees online using Amazon Payment Services — tuition, hostel, exam fees, and more — automatically reconciled with student records in OpenEduCat.

Managing annual and installment billing across colleges is one of the most time-intensive tasks for finance teams. Amazon Payment Services is one of the most reliable payment gateways for Saudi Arabia institutions — and OpenEduCat's fee management module connects to it natively. When a student pays online, OpenEduCat marks the invoice paid, posts to the general ledger, and sends a receipt — with zero manual intervention.
