Payment Methods

MyRED

The university recommends paying your bill through MyRED via online check by using a routing and account number of a valid U.S. checking or savings account, as it has no additional convenience fee. It’s important to confirm the account routing and account numbers before submitting an online check payment. Even more importantly, verify the payment information and account has sufficient funds before making a payment.

Credit or Debit Card

Credit and debit card payments require a 2.75% convenience fee. We do not accept card payments over the phone or in-person. Note: Do not input a debit card number when paying by online check, as this will result in a $30 return payment fee.

Personal and Cashier Checks

Our Bursar/Cashier Office takes personal and cashier check payments, as well as money orders during business hours. There is a drop-off envelope area if you need to drop off a check or money order payment outside of business hours. Please make checks out to the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Always make sure to include the eight-digit NUID number in the reference field to ensure payments are posted properly.

For families of students utilizing a college savings or 529 payment plan, be sure to request your payment at least 10 days prior to the semester due date to ensure processing and mail time. This must be requested through the plan itself; they cannot be initiated through the student’s MyRED or the Transact E-Payment portal.

Bank Bill

If you’re submitting a payment through your bank’s online bill pay, please use the 8-digit NUID number as the account number to ensure it’s credited to the correct account. Submit your payment request 10 days prior to the due date to allow time for your bank to process and transfer the payment.

Trusts or Other Payments

If you are paying your student account from a trust, 401-K, IRA or other plan, please notify the plan in time to have payments issued by the due date.

Paying with Foreign Currency

Log in to MyRED.
Select "Pay Bill" from the Student Accounts tab.
After you or an authorized payer are logged in, a new window will open for the UNL E-Payment system.
Select "Make a Payment” at the bottom of the screen.
Enter the dollar amount you want to pay in U.S. dollars.
Select your preferred payment method.
Enter foreign currency details on the Convera website to complete your payment.

The payer will provide their information and review the instructions on how to complete the payment to Convera. Upon verifying the information entered, a copy of the receipt with the payment instructions attached will be emailed to the email address provided previously on the Convera site.

The payer then must deliver the payment instructions to their bank within 72 hours. The quoted exchange rate is only valid for that period of time. Payer's foreign bank will then initiate the transfer of funds via Convera to UNL. Upon final sediment of the payment once received by Convera, the payment will be on the student's consolidated bill account and viewable in MyRED.

Setting up an Authorized Payer

An authorized payer is a parent or individual authorized to make payments on the student’s account in the UNL E-Payment System. Multiple authorized payers can be selected by a student. Authorized payers can view their payment activity and save payment accounts but cannot view MyRED using their E-Payment System login.

Log in to MyRED.
Select "Pay Bill" from the Student Accounts tab.
The UNL E-Payment Transact portal will open. Select "My Account."
Select "Payers" and then the "Send a payer invitation" hyperlink.
Input the payer’s information and select "Send Invitation."

Please make sure that your requested payer has checked their email, junk or spam folders if they do not see it arrive in their primary inbox. At this confirmation screen, students may send invites to additional payers.

The payer email will have their login username, email and their temporary Transact portal password. The authorized payer account is separate from the guest account created for accessing the MyRED portal. The authorized payer and password information for the UNL E-Payment System will be needed each time a payment is made.
