Send fee reminders
Remind families about unpaid fees, either one by one from the unpaid list or automatically when bills are due.
Fees & financeUpdated 17 Oct 20261 min read
Fee reminders tell families that a fee is due or late. You can send a reminder yourself, or let EduHost send reminders automatically.
Before you start
- Bills must already be made for the students. See Create bills.
- Reminders go by email and by push message on the mobile app. Families need an email address or an app login to get them.
Send a reminder yourself
- Go to Fees → Unpaid.
- Find the student or family who owes fees.
- Use the reminder option for that family to send the reminder.
To learn how to read this list, see See dues and defaulters.
Turn on automatic reminders
EduHost can send a reminder at these times:
- When a new bill is made.
- 3 days before the due date.
- When the bill becomes overdue, and then every 7 days until it is paid.
- Go to Broadcast → Automatic.
- Find the fee reminder messages.
- Switch on each reminder you want. Switch off any you do not want.
- Save your changes.
Each reminder has its own switch. For example, you can keep the overdue reminder on and turn off the new bill message.
Good to know
- Which ways a message can go (email, app push and others) is set in Broadcast → Settings.
- Parents also see school messages under Messages from school in the parent portal.
- If online payment is set up, parents can pay from the portal after they get a reminder. See Let parents pay fees online.
- For families who still do not pay, see Hold results or portal for unpaid fees.
- You only see these pages if your role allows it. Ask your school admin if a page is missing.
