3. Create Fees Structure

Once you have created your Courses & Programs, you need to create a Fees Structure for each of them.

A fee structure is a combination of various fee heads, collected over the period of a Course/Program either one-time (like Admission Fees) or recursively (like Tuition Fees).

4. Add or Import Students

Finally, add or import details of your students in to the system & link them to their respective Course or Program.

PayMyFees automatically creates a student account for your students, via which, they can login to your Student Portal & pay their fees online.

PayMyFee supports & accepts payments from all major Credit & Debit Cards (VISA, MasterCard, RuPay, AMEX, Diners), Internet Banking (All major Indian Banks), Mobile Wallets (Paytm, Mobikwik, JioMoney, etc.), UPI & Prepaid Cards. PayMyFee also supports acceptance of International payments.

As a payment aggregator partner, PayMyFees is required under RBI (Reserve Bank of India) guidelines to complete KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) verification for every institute before enabling live payment collection. This protects your institute, your students, and the payment ecosystem from fraud and ensures your settlements are processed without interruption. We collect two categories of documents:

Authorized Signatory's Documents — to verify the identity of the person authorized to operate the account on behalf of the institute (Aadhar Card, PAN Card).

Institute's Documents — to verify the legal existence and banking details of the institute itself (PAN Card, Cancelled Cheque, Registration Proof, GST Certificate/Non-Enrollment Declaration, Authorization Letter or Board Resolution, and a UBO Declaration where applicable).

All documents are stored securely and used solely for verification purposes. Once verified, your account is activated and you can start accepting payments immediately.
