Secure tuition, fee, and activity payments for schools, universities, and daycares.
From tuition and registration to cafeteria lines and PTA fundraisers, Caribbean Payments helps Puerto Rico schools and education programs collect every dollar they are owed — safely. Automated recurring plans, online portals, and PCI-compliant terminals mean less time chasing balances and more time on students.

The billing challenge
Schools, universities, daycares, tutoring centers, and PTAs juggle tuition cycles, weekly fees, busy cafeterias, and countless activity payments — often on tools that were never designed for education. These are the pain points we solve every day.
Tuition, registration, and activity fees arrive in waves and rarely on time. When families have no easy way to pay, balances stretch out, the front office chases paper checks, and staff spend hours reconciling instead of supporting students.
Many families need to split tuition across the year, and daycares and tutoring centers bill week after week. Without automated recurring plans, someone re-keys cards by hand every cycle and payments fall through the cracks.
Cafeterias, bookstores, and school stores move fast at lunch and between classes. Cash-only lines slow everyone down and create reconciliation headaches, while students and parents increasingly expect to tap a card or phone.
Field trips, sports, fundraisers, PTA dues, and after-school programs each come with their own payments to track. Collecting them by cash and check makes it hard to know who has paid and even harder to keep clean records.

Recommended hardware
Every school collects money a little differently. For a fast, flexible setup we often pair education programs with the versatile Clover Flex — a handheld terminal that takes chip, tap, and mobile-wallet payments, prints or emails receipts, and moves from the front office to the cafeteria to the fundraiser table with ease.

An education-ready processor combines encryption, tokenization, and PCI compliance with recurring billing and online portals so institutions can collect what they are owed without added busywork or risk.
