The payment methods we can offer depend on the institution you are making a payment to. Generally, when paying from India, we can offer the following payment methods:
If you do not see the payment method you wish to use, it means we do not offer it at this time for payments from your country to your institution.
This payment method is suitable for payers who will be:
- Making payments from your own or a family member’s bank account.
- Taking an educational loan.
- Required to show their bank the payment instructions and authorization letter.
- Making the payment for a student who is an Indian citizen.
Please do not use this payment method if the student is not an Indian resident.
Payer Information:
Please enter the correct payer’s details when booking your payment. The payer should be the bank account holder or an applicant on the educational loan. If there is more than one name on the bank account or loan, please enter the primary name or request your bank to send the funds under the name you provide on our website.
Important: If the names do not match with the bank account, the payment will be delayed for further verification.
Making the Bank Transfer:
Please make sure to follow the payment instructions specifically created for your payment ID only. Each payment ID may have different instructions and bank account details. WooshPay works with a few local partners, so you may be provided with a different bank account from your previous payment IDs.
Transfer your funds from either an individual/personal account or an educational loan account. Due to TCS regulations, the payer must be either the student or an immediate family member such as parents, siblings, spouse, or parents-in-law. Grandparents, friends, cousins, or uncles and aunts are not accepted. We also do not accept payments from the following account types:
- NRE/NRO account (non-resident account)
- Company account
- Partnership firms
- HUF
- Trust funds
You may transfer your funds using National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) or Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS), either through net banking or by going to the bank branch. Please do not use IMPS to send funds to WooshPay. For payments from bank loans, you can provide the payment instructions to your bank so they can make the transfer on your behalf.
After you have made the bank transfer, please note that our local partners require 2-3 business days to verify your payment for TCS. During this time, your payment status in WooshPay will remain as Pending. Our local partner will reach out to the payer directly if more information is required. Once the TCS verification is completed, WooshPay will send a confirmation email that we have received your funds and update your payment status to Paid. WooshPay will then process the funds and deliver them to your institution.
Please note, if you select to pay via "Debit/Credit(INR)" when making a payment, please make sure you select the correct card brand: Visa or Mastercard
Step 1: After selecting the payment option, fill out the required information to create the payment request.
Step 2: You can then make your payment by entering your card details on the final page. If your payment is successful, it will be reflected immediately.
Please note:
Yes, you can use WooshPay to pay an educational institution with borrowed funds. If you have taken out a loan to pay your fees, you can use the "Domestic Bank Transfer in Indian Rupees (INR)" option.
Please enter the loan borrower’s details under the "Payer Information" section, including the PAN number of the loan borrower. You can also use the co-borrower’s details.
After creating your payment request, you will be able to download your payment instructions, which include an authorization letter and our bank details. Present this document to your bank to clarify that WooshPay is acting as the official authorized international payment processor, and the final recipient of your payment is your institution.
To ensure your payment is processed smoothly without delay, please ask your bank to send the funds under the name of the PAN card holder you entered on the payment ID. If the details do not match, our team will need to reach out to you for more information and documents, which can delay your payment delivery.
Kindly note that due to TCS regulations, please do not make split payments or multiple bank transfers to one payment ID.
There are two ways to transfer the full amount:
Option 1: Contact your bank directly to request an increase in your transfer limit. They can usually do this for you at the counter or if you explain that you are making a remittance for international school tuition payment.
Option 2: Create multiple payment requests for smaller amounts through WooshPay to send the total amount via several transactions. Please note that due to TCS calculations, WooshPay can only process one active payment ID per PAN number at any one time. Thus, we will need to complete the first payment ID before you can create a second payment ID for the remaining funds. Be mindful of your payment deadline with your institution, as this may delay your payment.
You can create multiple payment IDs at the same time if:
The Goods and Services Tax (GST), introduced in India on 1 July 2017, consolidates various national and state-level taxes on goods and services. Its goal is to simplify tax calculations and collection, bringing greater efficiency and transparency to India's taxation system.
The way GST is calculated and collected differs by payment method:
Regardless of the payment method, GST will be calculated based on the margin of money conversion in accordance with the relevant provisions of the GST law.
Please note, GST will not be refunded if you receive a refund for your payment. This is because the tax is applied to the service rendered and is deducted from the original payment amount to be submitted directly to the relevant tax authorities at the time of payment.
Under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS), the Indian government and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) now require an LRS Declaration form (fully titled “A2 cum LRS Declaration”) to transfer funds abroad.
If you select to pay via “Domestic Bank Transfer in INR,” you may be required to fill out and submit this form. The A2 form has been updated to fulfill your LRS Declaration requirement. If you need to complete the LRS form, we will provide it on our website, and you will need to complete it before the payment instructions can be generated for you. Once you complete your LRS form online and sign to submit it, it will be sent to our local partner in India for TCS verification.
If there are any mistakes in the LRS form or if our local partner requires more information, they will reach out to the payer directly to request edits or additional documents. Payers can reply to their emails with the required information, or resubmit the LRS form on the tracking link page.
When transferring via RTGS or NEFT, the funds sent from your account are usually received by the bank on the same day. However, the bank needs time to reconcile all payments made before notifying WooshPay. Additionally, our local partner requires time to verify your funds for TCS before they can release the funds to WooshPay. If more information is needed, our partner will contact the payer directly via email or call.
Therefore, it generally takes 2-3 business days (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and bank holidays) for us to receive the funds from the date your bank releases them. WooshPay will send you a confirmation email as soon as your funds are credited to our account from our local partner.
