When your school community commences making payments by credit card via the online finance viewing platform, it is important that you are able to verify these payments against the student's account in Hero. This article will assist you with this reconciliation process.
When setting up credit card processing you will have created an account with Stripe (Stripe is the intermediary between the caregiver and the school. The caregiver pays Stripe who then deposits this money (less expenses) into the school's bank account). LINC Technologies is not involved with this process. The responsibility of LINC Technologies is to update the student's account with the amount received.
