How this integration work

You can offer payments through Flywire in two ways:

Schools create templates with a Flywire bookmark to request payments against offers, enrolments, and invoices.
When emails, SMS messages, or merged documents are sent from eBECAS/EDMISS, a unique and secure payment link (or QR code) is automatically generated and included with the amount due.
Students click or scan to make their payment via Flywire’s secure portal.
Payments are automatically recorded and tracked in eBECAS/EDMISS for fast reconciliation.

Payments can be requested for students, offers, enrolments and invoices.

Students log in to their eBECAS/EDMISS portal.
Go to the Invoices page and select invoices to pay.
Choose Flywire as the payment option.
Pay via bank transfer, card, or other local methods—with no hidden fees.
