TouchNet's PayPath Convenience Fee Service lets colleges and universities offer constituents the option to pay tuition and fees via credit card. PayPath Tuition Payment Service charges the payer an administrative and technology fee for using the service. PayPath returns 100% of the tuition to the institution.

Unlike similar services, PayPath connects to the campus student information system in real-time to update student accounts. Students appreciate the immediate response to each payment action, while Business Office staff benefit from end-to-end automation.

PayPath, hosted at the TouchNet DataCenter, is structured to assure that institutions remain compliant with card association rules and regulations. It also protects the institution's ability to offer lower-cost payment alternatives, such as ACH payments, on campus.
