For University services and products that are intended to be purchased online, staff and faculty may request integration with an online credit card payment service.

Using this service allows payments to be processed using the University's contracted payment vendor, and ensures the funds are deposited, allocated and accounted for by Financial Services. This service is for taking payments only and does not include web storefront, inventory nor shopping cart features. Consultation and assistance regarding integration with an existing web application are provided. As part of this service a representative can choose to receive an email notification for each transaction or a daily summary email.

Use of all online credit card payment services are subject to approval by Financial Services.

For payments for University hosted conferences and events, we recommend contacting Conference & Event Services and handling registration and payment via the online StarRez system.
