Paying for Costs

Paying Online as a Guardian or Member

Once Cost is assigned to your member, you may receive a notification with your unique magic link!

1. Once you click your "magic link" from any CutTime notification, click the program under the student you'd like to access. If it's the first time you've clicked that link, you'll have to verify your identity with a verification code before clicking on your student's program.
2. You can either use the "Jump to: Financials" button to be brought directly to your financial summary or scroll down to the bottom of this page to find it.
3. In the Financial Summary section, click the "Make a Payment" button to be brought to the Account Payment page.
4. Type in the amount you would like to pay toward your student's account and click "Go to payment form."
5. Fill in your card information and click "Pay $x.xx" which will show the amount you're paying with the convenience fee added to the amount you entered to pay into your student's account.

6. Then you'll be brought to a page confirming your payment with the amount you paid, and it will show you a preview of how that payment will appear on your card statement.

Below the Financial Summary section, you're able to see the transaction summary, a list of the costs assigned to your student, and a full history of payments logged in this season.

Transaction Summary

The transaction summary might show that you are "overpaid" at the time of payment because the cost's due date has not come yet. On the cost's due date, the amount of the cost is applied to that "overpaid" amount from the payment applied before that time, then the "running balance" will show how much is overpaid or due after that point. The more prominent "$x.xx due" is shown as the number after all costs have been applied to your student, and that's what's reflected in your financial summary.

Financial history

Previous season financial details can be selected on the program selection screen in step 1 under "Inactive Seasons."

Cost Sharing

Sharing Costs with Friends and Family

Should you decide to request financial assistance with raising funds for your student's costs/pledges, they can share the cost with friends and family.

On your dashboard:

1. Jump to the Financials section, or scroll down to find it.
2. Click on "Share these costs" button
3. Fill out the Name and Mobile number of the person or people you'd like to share a donation link with and click "Send invitation."

At that point a unique magic link (and login) to that donor is sent to them. It is not the same magic link as the guardian sending it.

Friends and family can click through on the link and donate towards their student account.
