Auto-Pay

If your school has enabled autopay, you have the option to set it up while making your payment.

Autopayments include the payment amount for any outstanding balance on the account for invoices with a current or past due invoice date. Future dated invoices will be processed for autopayment matching their invoice due date.

Please Note: Autopay will run the oldest payment method on file. If both parents use the same payment method, and an update needs to occur, both parents must update on each account.

If you disable autopay, you will need to initiate the payment every billing cycle.

Important: The school retains the ability to manually auto-debit even if autopay is disabled (talk to your school for details).

Electronic Payments

Once your school has enabled online payments, you can pay using a debit card, credit card or bank account (ACH).

Please Note: Each parent must set up online payment methods separately. If there are two parents on an account, they are unable to view or use each other's payment method.

Card Reclassification Notifications

Upon adding payment methods, Procare verifies that all cards entered are correctly classified as debit or credit cards. If a card was entered incorrectly, you may receive one of the following notifications:

  • If a card does not verify, the following error message will display. If you receive this message, remove and re-add the card information. If the error message continues to display, wait 15 minutes before reattempting. If the reattempt fails, remove and re-enter the payment method.

  • If a card was initially added as a debit card but found to be a credit card, you may receive the following message. Click Accept to reclassify your card as a credit card. If you do not accept the change, navigate to the Payments screen to change your payment method.
