To Access Cardinal Pay
All students and alumni since 2000 automatically have access to Cardinal Pay via the Student Account tile in Cardinal Students. (Access to Cardinal Students is not shut off after a student leaves the university.)
Students who wish to grant other individuals access to their account information (including notification of balances) must establish those individuals as Authorized Users in Cardinal Pay. Authorized Users will have with their own login name and password for the Cardinal Pay website. Instructions for setting up Authorized Users can be found here.
Individuals who wish to remit payments towards a students account but who have not been given Authorized User access as described above can do so as a Guest Payer.
Students/Alumni: Cardinal Pay can be accessed via the Student Account tile in Cardinal Students. This is the ONLY log in option for students and alumni.
Authorized Users (non-students): Cardinal Pay can be accessed at catholic.myflywire.com. This link is for Authorized Users (non-students/alumni) ONLY
Guest Payers: Individuals who have not been established as authorized users on a student's account may make payments by navigating to https://guestpay.catholic.edu/. To make a guest payment you must enter the student's first and last names and seven digit student identification number. You must obtain the ID number directly from the student. Enrollment Services is not able to provide guest payers student identification numbers. Guest Payers only have access to remit payments -- they will not have access to view student account information. If a Guest Payer needs to access student account information they should speak with the student about being set up with Authorized User access.
