Payment methods

For your convenience, we provide a variety of different payment methods. In the case of electronic transfers, please ensure that the reference field is completed correctly. No cash or cheques will be accepted at any Unisa office. Cash can, however, be paid into the university’s bank account at any Standard Bank branch.

Payment problems & cancellation dates

Dishonored payments

If a cheque or credit card is tendered in payment of the minimum amount which must accompany a student’s application for registration, and payment of that cheque or credit card is later returned unpaid by the bank, the student’s registration will be canceled by the university. Such registrations will not be reinstated unless the student’s full tuition fees for the year or semester are paid in the form of cash, electronic transfer, or bank-guaranteed cheque into the university’s bank account, or via debit card payment at any of the Unisa regional offices before the relevant closing date.

On re-registration of the canceled modules, the student’s account will be debited with a once-off administrative levy, per dishonored transaction.

Overdue accounts and accounts handed over for collection

No student will be allowed to re-register with the university until all outstanding debt of previous registration periods has been settled in full. Students with long overdue balances on their accounts may be handed over to a third party for collection. Any collection/legal costs that may arise from the account being handed over will be for the account of the student. Payment or arrangements thereof of overdue accounts handed over for collection should be made with the collection company concerned.
