What is Backpack?
Backpack is the first digital payments platform built specifically for higher education. We handle 529, scholarship, and third-party payments for universities and families.
How do you help universities?
We eliminate paper checks, automate reconciliation, and reduce support calls. Universities get real-time payment visibility and can go live in less than two weeks.
How do you handle outside scholarship payments?
Each university receives access to a custom-branded scholarship payment portal - the first digital payments checkout experience built specifically for outside scholarships. Thousands of scholarship providers use Backpack to submit and send scholarship funds electronically to universities across the country.
How do you help our student families?
We provide families with the first comprehensive 529 payments platform—one that goes beyond simply moving money. Our platform supports all 100+ 529 plans, offers personalized guidance and resources, and enables additional services like electronic 529 refunds and payments for non-tuition expenses.
