When parents log in to MySchoolBucks.com they be taken to the new Parent Portal. This new page gives you the ability to display your logo, a district announcement and add shortcut links called custom cards.  These cards can link to other areas of MySchoolBucks such as meal payments, your school store, and specific store products.  Or, you can link them to any external pages you'd like (e.g. district’s website). **Watch this video to learn more about the new Parent Portal and how to get started:** Topics: [How to](https://blog.heartlandschoolsolutions.com/msb-spotlight/topic/how-to) [![Use our free tools to remind parents to pay online](https://blog.heartlandschoolsolutions.com/hubfs/msb-comm-tools-blog-sidenav-cta-spotlight.png "Use our free tools to remind parents to pay online")](https://info.heartlandschoolsolutions.com/msb-resource-central#tools) ### Recent Articles ### Articles by Topic -
