Charlotte, N.C., Sept. 01, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Unity FI Solutions, a leading provider of electronic payment solutions, has partnered with Nobel Learning Communities, Inc., a network of more than 200 private schools in 19 states and Washington, D.C., to launch an online platform that allows Nobel Learning’s schools to accept electronic payments from parents at no additional cost to the schools.
“The ability to accept electronic payments for a variety of services can be a huge help for schools when it comes to managing cash flow, but also provides an extra convenience for parents,” said Dan Miller, co-founder of Unity FI. “We are pleased to have been able to partner with Nobel Learning on creating this platform and implementing it across its entire network of schools. The schools and parents are already seeing the benefit.”
The system allows parents at all of Nobel Learning’s schools to electronically pay for items like tuition, sports, testing fees, textbooks, cafeteria costs, and before and after school care. The platform is completely cost-free for schools and charges a nominal convenience fee to users for each transaction. The solution is also available with a guarantee option that eliminates the risk of schools losing money due to payments from accounts with insufficient funds.
“Unity FI has been great to work with as we have implemented this system, making sure it truly meets the needs of both our schools and our families,” said Tom Frank, chief financial officer of Nobel Learning Communities. “Since launching the platform, we have received a lot of positive feedback from parents.”
Last year, Unity FI Solutions created a similar platform for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, the largest school district in North Carolina, that helped the school system reduce costs associated with payment processing and alleviate pressure from budget cuts.
