Online Fee Collection with Xendit for International Schools

Collect international school fees online using Xendit — tuition, hostel, exam fees, and more — automatically reconciled with student records in OpenEduCat.

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