(PFI) Online School Payments

Van Wert, Ohio – August 29, 2011 – Vantage Career Center is excited about giving parents the ability to manage their student’s fee and lunch accounts over the internet using PayForIt.net. This new technology benefits the school, the parents, and the students. Payments for student fees and lunch accounts may be made any time, day or night. Cashiers will spend less time taking deposits at the serving line so students have more time to eat their meals. Parents will no longer have to worry about money not reaching the cafeteria.

Parents can sign up for a PayForIt.net account at any time. Once the account is activated they can start taking advantage of all the features PayForIt.net offers including:

Set up recurring payments so they don’t have to worry about their student not having money for meals
Parents can see balances for Student Fees and Lunch on the main screen
Email reminders so they know when the account is getting low
Convenience of depositing money 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
Online step by step tutorials on how to use PayForIt.net
A safe and secure environment

PayForIt.net integrates seamlessly with the district software so when money is deposited it should be available students within 2 hours, in most cases. Stacie Leiter, Vantage Technology Coordinator says, “We are so pleased with the ease of use of PayForIt.net and the amount of time that it will save our cafeteria and student fee staff. It is so simple.”
