Fees collected weeks earlier
Schools see arrears drop 20–35% in the first quarter — automated reminders on WhatsApp + UPI links do most of the chasing.
Admissions you can measure
Every enquiry from the website, Justdial, Google ads or a walk-in is tracked through visit → form → fee paid. No more "we don't know where students came from".
Less work for the front office
Routine calls — "what's the fee?", "is school open tomorrow?", "where is the bus?" — get answered by the app or the AI agent.
DPDP-compliant data handling
Indian data residency, parent-consent logs, role-based access. Audit-ready when CBSE or state inspectors ask.

Designed for Every School Type
Single-campus K-12 schools
CBSE / ICSE / state board schools with 300–3,000 students get every module on one login, with reports the principal can read on the way home.
Multi-branch chains
Run 5, 20 or 200 branches from one dashboard. Roll-up fee MIS, cross-branch transfers, shared question banks, per-branch P&L.
Preschools & playgroups
Daily photos, meal logs, nap timers and observation notes — built so a class teacher with 25 toddlers can use it one-handed.
Coaching & test-prep institutes
Batch-wise attendance, test scheduling with answer-key upload, OMR scanning and student rank reports on the parent app.
What principals tell us
We moved from spreadsheets after 12 years. Fee follow-ups dropped from 4 staff days a week to about 6 hours. Parents stopped calling the office for receipts.
I run three branches. The biggest gain isn't the software — it's that I can see fee collection of all three on my phone by 10 AM every day, in Tamil.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which payment gateway does Schoolites use for school fees?
You can connect Razorpay, PayU, Easebuzz, Cashfree, Atom or ICICI Eazypay — use your existing merchant account or we help you create one. All modes (UPI, cards, netbanking, wallets) are unlocked on a single payment page.
What is the MDR (transaction fee) on UPI school fees?
UPI school fee transactions in India are zero-MDR by RBI directive. Card and netbanking transactions have standard gateway MDR (typically 0.9–1.99%) — schools can absorb, pass to parents, or split.
How fast does the money settle in the school bank account?
T+1 for UPI and netbanking, T+2 for cards — directly into the school bank account configured with the payment gateway. Schoolites receives a webhook and updates the student ledger instantly.
Are receipts GST-compliant and auto-generated?
Yes — tax invoices and fee receipts (per board / state requirements) are auto-generated within 30 seconds of successful payment and sent via WhatsApp, email and SMS.
Does it handle partial payments and installments?
Yes — schools can configure installment schedules per fee head, allow partial payments with auto-discount or late-fee rules, and trigger auto-reminders.
How does reconciliation work if a parent pays via the bank counter or by cheque?
Offline collections (cash, cheque, NEFT, DD) are entered by the cashier in the same dashboard. Schoolites unifies online + offline so each student's ledger is one source of truth.
Related Modules
One simple per-student price
We started Schoolites after watching an aunt — a principal in Karawal Nagar — spend her Sundays manually calling parents about pending fees. Every module here exists because a real school asked for it, not because a roadmap said so. If something is missing or clunky, write to the team and you'll usually hear back the same day.
