eCommerce

UPay, created by the University, is the preferred payment application for accepting online payments.

• From for your web-site:
  • The consumer inputs their information on-line (usually via UMarket); the payment card is authorized, and funds are deposited automatically, without any need for staff to intercept.
  • All deposits are automatically updated to chart-fields.
  • Cardholders are sent a confirmation email of their purchase.
  • The department contact has access to transaction history through the admin module or through CIS.
• Use with U-Market:
  • U-Market is a secure gateway managed by the University. The server is regularly scanned and updated to meet the PCI standards.
  • U-Market can provide you with a template for a “check-out” page. You will be provided with training to create a link to put on your website that will take the customers directly to that page.
  • U-Market has a shopping cart option that is customizable, can include pictures and logos. You may see examples of other shopping carts used on campus by clicking here.
