Collecting student fees can be a difficult task, especially when it has to be done manually. There’s excess paperwork that has to be managed and collected, hoping parents see the invoice you’ve sent home with a student, and then ensuring there’s an easy way for parents to pay it. MySchoolBucks can help simplify the entire process and help you collect payments much faster. In fact, many of our customers have shared that over 80% of their invoices sent electronically through MySchoolBucks are paid in 30 days or less, resulting in significant time savings for staff.

Did you know that MySchoolBucks partners with Edupoint’s Synergy Education Platform? We work seamlessly with Synergy to simplify the payment process for your staff and parents. 

How does it work?
The integration is free to set up and use. First, your staff enters and manages all fees in the Synergy SIS. Once the fee is created, parents can log into Parent VUE or MySchoolBucks to see the fees due. Finally, parents can pay for fees securely online or on-the-go with a card or e-check right from their MySchoolBucks account.

What if my district doesn't use ParentVUE?
That's ok!  Fees entered in Synergy will still automatically appear in MySchoolBucks.  Parents can go directly to the MySchoolBucks website or mobile app to make a payment.

Can parents use their existing MySchoolBucks account?
Absolutely!  Parents with a ParentVUE account can link it to their existing MySchoolBucks account. Or, they can create a free account if they're new to MySchoolBucks. This means parents only need one login to view fees and quickly make payments.
