Monthly Payment Plans
Students have the option to pay their bill by the start of each semester, or by setting up a monthly plan for each semester. We encourage all students and payers to make a financial plan prior to the start of classes. For more assistance with creating a payment plan, contact our office.
Semester Payments
Students and authorized payers who choose to pay by semester will be expected to pay by the due date. Students can make their payments via mailed check, or online through Transact by bank account (electronic check), international payment (Flywire), or credit card* (American Express, Discover, MasterCard, or VISA). Credit card payments must be done through the Transact eBill site.
Monthly Payment Plans
Students and authorized payers may choose to pay their bill on a monthly basis by enrolling in a payment plan. Monthly payment plans do not accrue interest; students will only be charged a $35 enrollment fee each semester.
To enroll in a monthly payment plan, students will need to:
1. Log in to FALCONLink with Messiah ID and password
2. Type "Transact"
3. Once inside Transact, click "View Payment Plan Options"
5. Type balance in the "Plan Amount" box, and click "Enroll in Plan".
*If the student balance changes during the semester, the payment plan must also be adjusted by the student or payer. Alternatively, an email can be sent to studentfinsvcs@messiah.edu with a request for Student Financial Services to adjust the payment plan.
Students will need to give access to parents or authorized users who will be accessing Transact.
