TUpay: Authorized Payers

TUpay is Temple’s online student account and payment system. An Authorized Payer is someone the student grants access to TUpay on their behalf to view the student account as well as make online payments. Authorized Payers also receive balance due notification emails when they are issued. Your student must set you up as an Authorized Payer via the Student Tools tab in the TuPortal. The Authorized Payer will receive an email with the URL to access TUpay and instructions for creating a password. You can visit bursar.temple.edu/how-to-videos to watch a video on how to access TUpay and how your student can create Authorized Payers.

Student Refunds: Direct Deposit

Students are strongly encouraged to sign up for direct deposit for their student refunds. With direct deposit, refunds are available sooner and safely deposited directly into the student’s bank account rather than waiting for checks to arrive in the mail.

To sign up for direct deposit, select TUpay with the Costs and Aid tab on TUportal. In TUpay, select Student Choice Refunds and then follow the prompts.
