Definition of Student Collective Account
The concept of a "student collective account" means that the students of the institution pay into a joint bank account any amount they wish, on the basis of which the programme builds up balances per student. The student can manage this balance and settle his/her payment obligations in any order he/she wishes. The student may not exceed the balance he/she has accumulated when making payments. If the balance is not used in full during the course of his/her studies, it may be refunded to the student.
How to manage my liabilities in Neptun through collective account?
In the case of a collective account, students transfer (like a normal wire transfer) to the collective account. When making a transfer, the student must enter the Neptun code in the comment field after the character "NK-". For example: NK-A1B2C3
In the Student Web Client, the balance of the student's collective account can be seen in the "Finance / Payment" menu. Mark the given liability by clicking on the box at the end of the line, then click the "Pay in" button. On the next page the student can choose „Collective account payment” and then click the "Pay in" button again.
You may find here the following detailed instruction about collective account payment and account information.
How can I pay in the inflicted payment via card?
Credit/debit card can be used to settle any liabilities inflicted in Neptun. The student can choose which payment item/items (max. 4) would like to fulfill.
You may find here the following detailed instruction about credit/bank card payment.
Please be aware that our service provider (SimplePay) is not in contact with all of the banks around the world. It can be possible that you will not be able to use your credit/bank card for online payments. In this case please use the NEPTUN collective account system to fulfil your liabilities.
How can I request an invoice?
Not everyone needs to apply for an invoice, as the system automatically creates an invoice for the student's name and permanent address the day after the payment is fulfilled. If the student’s tuition fee is paid by an organization/company/other personnel, it needs to be registered to the student’s own profile.
You may find here the following detailed instruction about how you can request an invoice.
The amount I transferred does not appear on my collective account
If the transferred amount does not appear on your collective account after three working days 111 request has to be submitted in Neptun with an official bank debit note attached. This document has to contain the followings:
- Source account number (your bank account)
- Target account number (referred to)
- Amount
- Date of reference
- Public field / Comment
- Transaction number
If the payment paid by Simple Pay is not fulfilled, check to make sure that the amount transferred has been deducted from your account. Refer to the SimplePay ID to clarify the reason of the problem at the bank.
Paying in instalments
Until the invoice generated the student can split the payment by him-/herself.
You may find here the following detailed instruction about how you can split a payment.
