Online Fee Collection with Xendit for Vocational Schools
Collect vocational school fees online using Xendit — tuition, hostel, exam fees, and more — automatically reconciled with student records in OpenEduCat.
Managing per-course flexible 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 student pays online, OpenEduCat marks the invoice paid, posts to the general ledger, and sends a receipt — with zero manual intervention.
