What "Free" Actually Means at PayMyFees
Many software companies advertise a "free plan" that locks the most useful features behind a paywall. PayMyFees is different. Our Free Plan is not a trial or a watered-down version — it includes every core feature you need to collect fees online, manage students and generate reports.
The only charge you ever pay is a platform fee of 1.99% per successful transaction — which covers the payment gateway cost as well. There is no minimum monthly usage fee, no per-student charge, no SMS charge and no setup fee. If you collect ₹0 in a month, you pay ₹0.

Full-Featured Free Software — Not a Stripped-Down Trial
With PayMyFees Free Plan you get a complete fee management system that competing software charges ₹12,000 to ₹50,000 per year for. Collect fees online via UPI, credit/debit cards, net banking and mobile wallets. Create unlimited courses, fee heads and fee structures. Add unlimited students. Send automated SMS and email reminders when a fee is due or overdue. Generate digital payment receipts automatically.
The student payment portal is fully branded with your institute's logo and colours — parents see your identity, not a generic screen. You get real-time reports on fees collected, pending dues and defaulters, downloadable as PDFs.
Why Do We Offer Free Fee Management Software?
We built PayMyFees to democratise digital fee collection for educational institutes across India — not just the large, well-funded ones. Many small schools, coaching centres and private tutors cannot justify a ₹20,000/year software subscription when they collect modest fee volumes. By charging only a small percentage on successful transactions, we make money only when you make money. If you don't collect, we don't charge. It's that simple.
This model has allowed over 900 institutes — from single-room tuition centres in small towns to multi-branch academies in metro cities — to go digital without any financial risk.
