Processing One-Time Charges

    Charge a student for an enrollment fee, seminar, or other one-time payment.

    Processing One-Time Charges overview

    Open the Charge History section

    Open the student's Student Information page, click the Billing tab, and scroll to Charge History.

    This section lists all past charges for the student, including one-time charges and regular membership payments.

    You can issue a Refund on any charge and download a receipt for any payment.

    If a charge failed, the failure reason is shown along with a Retry button to attempt it again.

    Create a one-time charge

    Click Create Charge in the Charge History section.

    Enter a Description (for example, an enrollment fee, seminar, or private lesson) and the Amount.

    Optionally use Split into multiple categories, pick a Charge Type, add Notes, and toggle Include Sales Tax.

    Select the student's card under Payment Method, then click Create Charge. The charge is not processed immediately; Kmura confirms Charge Created and saves it as a pending charge in the Charge History section.

    From the pending row, use the two buttons to either collect the payment now or mark it as paid offline.

    Defer the charge to a future date

    To charge the student later instead of now, turn on Schedule for later in the Create New Charge dialog.

    Pick the Charge date. The student's card will be charged automatically on that date.

    Click Schedule Charge to save the scheduled charge.

    Create New Charge dialog with Schedule for later toggled on showing the Charge date picker

    Record an offline payment

    Click Record Offline Payment to log a transaction that happened outside of Kmura, such as check, cash, Venmo, or Zelle.

    Enter the Description, Amount, Charge Type, the Paid on date, and the Payment method, with an optional Reference like a check number.

    The charge is recorded as already paid, so you have a record of it in Kmura, and you can send the student a receipt for the offline transaction if desired.

    Note

    Students automatically receive an email receipt each time they are charged, with sales tax itemized as a separate line item when tax applies.
