Billing & Payments

Billing that runs itself, and payments families like

Set tuition once, let autopay do the work, and keep every family ledger clean. Parent card numbers are handled by a certified payment processor and never touch Orbit's servers.

What you get

Billing & Payments, without the busywork

Recurring tuition

Weekly or monthly schedules, sibling and program rates, registration and supply fees, all billed automatically.

Autopay by card or bank

Families choose card or bank account autopay in the parent app, and payments post to their ledger.

Clean family ledgers

Charges, payments, credits and balances in one place, with statements families can understand.

Subsidy and agency splits

Track the family's share and the agency's share separately, so nobody is billed the wrong amount.

Friendly reminders

Automatic reminders before due dates and when a payment doesn't go through.

QuickBooks sync

Payments, fees and deposits flow into QuickBooks, so your books match your ledgers.

How it works

Simple from day one

  1. 1

    Set your rates

    Add programs, rates and fees once. Orbit guides you through it.

  2. 2

    Invite families

    Families set up autopay in the parent app with a card or bank account.

  3. 3

    Get paid

    Payments post to ledgers and sync to QuickBooks. You handle exceptions, not every payment.

Questions

Common questions

Where are parents' card numbers stored?

Not on Orbit's servers. Card and bank details are entered into and stored by a certified payment processor. Orbit only keeps a reference it needs to show payment status.

Can families pay without autopay?

Yes. Families can make one-time payments in the parent app, and you can record cash or check payments at the front desk.

Can we give year-end statements for taxes?

Yes. Families can get a year-end statement of what they paid.

Payment processing fees depend on your processor agreement. Talk to us for details.
