Payment Methods

Student Financial Services offers a variety of payment methods, both in person and online. Information about each payment method can be found below.

Online payment

You or someone you authorize may use a credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover), debit card, or e-check online to pay on your SPU Student Banner Account through a linked service called QuikPAY. QuikPAY charges a 2.8% service fee for using domestic credit and debit cards. International credit and debit cards will be charged a 4.25% service fee. However, e-checks do not incur a fee.

  • Students: You can make online payments through your account, which links you to the QuikPAY site. Here’s a step-by-step tutorial.

  • Parents: If you’re going to be making payment for a student, you can make online payments through our payment site, QuikPAY. Here are details you should know.

  • International Students: It is now possible for you to pay your SPU bill from your home country via a direct international payment! Thanks to a partnership we’ve created with a company called Flywire, you will no longer have to move money to the US to pay your bill. You (or whoever is paying the bill) simply have to have the bank account or card information from your country as well as your SPU ID number – that’s it! Payments can be made through QuikPAY by choosing Flywire as the payment method or directly through Flywire.

And, while we cannot accept in-person credit or debit card payments, you can pay online through QuikPAY.

You can make online payments towards a past due SPU balance through your account, which links you to the QuikPAY site. Here's a step-by-step tutorial. If you need to reset your Banner account, recover your SPU username or contact the IT department.
