Pay Your Balances Online
Credit Card Payments
The UMFK Business Office offers you multiple options to make payments on any balances owed to the University. We accept debit cards and most major credit cards, including Master Card, Visa, Discover, and American Express. You can make online payments conveniently through MaineStreet. Note: A convenience fee is charged on all card transactions.
Payments by Electronic Check (ACH)
If you have a U.S. bank checking or savings account, you can make electronic payments in your Student Center using ACH, also known as an electronic check. Making a payment by ACH incurs no additional costs or fees.
