Is your university ready for the future of payments?
Leveraging Elavon’s latest payment technologies, your university will be positioned to save costs, mitigate risk and improve the payment experience. Equally important, the time and effort spent on payment security and PCI DSS management will be reduced.
Lower your costs
Educational institutions are challenged with tight budgets. There are many ways to lower your costs and improve revenue management. You may consider card payments just another cost of operating a university. But what if you could offset those costs?
Affordably expand payment options with fee acceptance programs
Service fees are revenue neutral and can enable your organization to better control costs associated with payment acceptance. By charging the cardholder a service fee on non-cash transactions, your university can eliminate the cost of acceptance fees.
Our Convenience Fees program can help offset costs associated with payments in card-not-present
environments, such as over the phone, mobile app or online. By leveraging convenience fees, universities can keep up with student demands for digital payment options while better controlling operating expenses.
Safer touchless payments
Elavon supports solutions that enable you to minimize touchpoints while delivering a quick, easy and secure payment experience.
- Allow students and parents to control their payment method throughout the transaction
- Eliminate the need to touch a screen or device that is not their own
