Parent Portal: Add credit to a students account

Your school uses School Bytes for parent communications and payments through a parent portal. In the parent portal, you have access to school information as well as online forms. If your school uses the School Bytes Finance module, you will also have access to student payments. The School Bytes parent portal enables you to add credit to your students account to be used throughout the year.

Please note: Transactions made through the online payment portal will appear on your bank statement as 0SCHOOLSONLINE 0000 PARRAMATTA AU.

To set up your parent portal, follow the steps in the guide Parent Portal: Set up your parent portal account.
