Cost Control: Merchant Statement Analysis for Education

Educational institutions, from K-12 schools to universities, manage diverse payment types—tuition, fees, bookstore sales, donations, and event tickets—which can lead to incredibly complex and costly payment processing fees. Our precise merchant statement analysis brings complete transparency to your statements, helping you identify and reduce unnecessary expenses. By optimizing your payment solutions, you can allocate more resources directly to your core mission: educating students.

The Complexities of Payment Processing in Education

Educational institutions operate with a unique financial landscape. You accept payments from a wide array of sources, often through various departments and systems. This fragmentation can lead to multiple merchant accounts, inconsistent pricing models, and a labyrinth of transaction fees, PCI compliance charges, and other surcharges that are difficult to track and understand. The sheer volume and variety of transactions make it challenging for finance teams to identify where savings opportunities exist, leaving institutions vulnerable to hidden costs that divert funds from critical educational programs and student support services.
