Online Fee Payment via PushCoin
District 96 utilizes an online fee payment platform specifically designed for education. The PushCoin solution provides parents with a convenient method of paying school-related fees and expenses beyond registration fees. Additionally, we have launched a District 96 Web Store. The web store contains a variety "a la carte" items for purchase across our schools.

PAYING FOR SCHOOL FEES
- Click on "Transactions" on the left side of the screen.
- Select the student and the account (wallet or fees) - the screen will refresh to show the purchases made within the dates. Change the dates for transactions outside the most current 30-day range.
Here is an example
- Electronic check (eCheck): The eCheck funding option is always free to use
- Credit Card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover): There is an additional fee of 2.9% + $0.28 per transaction to use credit or debit cards. This fee is charged by the card processor (Not PushCoin). Riverside School District 96 does not see or keep any portion of these assements, they all go to the card processor. The fee is in addition to the original transaction amount. You will be able to see the total cost before submitting the transaction.
- PushCoin.com is a mobile-friendly website. You can use a smartphone or a tablet to pay for school fees or fund and monitor your students' wallet account. The site will adjust to your device’s screen and act like an APP.
- If funding electronically, the minimum transaction for the wallet is $35. This minimum exists to allow your school district to keep E-Check transactions free of service charges, and keep the credit card charge to a minimum. There is no minimum transaction amount when funding by physical check.
- If you have an outstanding balance in your student’s Fees account, you will be sent an electronic invoice once a month.
- Optional programs or items are available on our website through the Webstore Icon (the shopping cart) or by visiting https://store.district96.org. There is no need to fund student’s wallet to make purchases on the District 96 webstore or pay for student’s fees.
We have also added links to the “Parents” pulldown menu on our websites.
PROCESS CHANGES- All registration fees and any outstanding balances associated with returning students will be applied to PushCoin accounts.
- If a parent or guardian does not wish to utilize the PushCoin online fee payment system, fees can be paid via cash or check in-person at the District 96 Administrative Offices located at 3340 S. Harlem Ave. in Riverside.
