Online Payments at Madonna University

Students and families have two ways to make payments online: Payer Invitation or Guest Payer. The best option depends on whether someone simply wants to make a one-time payment or needs ongoing access to view the student's account balance. 

Payer Invitation

If a parent, guardian, or other family member regularly helps manage payments, students can invite them as a payer. Payers can log in, view the student's balance, and make payments - without needing a FERPA release. To set up a payer, students need to: 

1. Log into MY portal.
2. Click the Students tab > Online Payment under MY Finances/Payments
3. Under Payers click on Send Payer Invitation.
4. Enter the name and email of the person you want to invite to have access to your account. Click send invitation on the bottom.
5. A welcome email will be sent to the email address entered. The email will contain an optional note (if you included one), login ID, temporary password and a link to access the site. Once the user logs in for the first time they will be prompted to reset the password.
6. You Parent PIN is now ready for use.

Payers can then:

• View the student's account balance and associated payment due dates
• Make payments online

Guest Payer

Guest Pay is designed for anyone making a single payment without needing to see the student's balance. Guests cannot view account information, including the balance, but they can apply a payment toward balances with the student's last name and ID number. This is ideal for gifts, one-time assistance, or anyone who does not need ongoing access.  

To make a Guest Payment: 

1. Enter the ID number and student's last name.
2. Select item to pay.
3. Enter the contribution amount in the price box.
4. Add to basket.
5. Checkout and select a payment method.
   • If using echeck, review banking and routing numbers before completing transaction to avoid a returned payment.
6. A receipt will be emailed to the address provided.
