Press release from Belmont Public Schools: 11/4/2021 Dear families, Belmont Public Schools online fee payments are now being processed by MySchoolBucks, instead of our previous online system, MCC which is no longer doing business as an online school payment processor. MySchoolBucks may be familiar to you as it is already being used for meal purchases. MySchoolBucks offers these payment options: With the Pay-As-You-Go option, there is a transaction fee associated with each online payment. The Pay-As-You-Go fees are: Meal payments - $2.75 per transaction via credit card or $2.49 per transaction via electronic check. As a OnePay member, there are no transaction fees for electronic check payments (not credit card) regardless of the number of transactions/payments you make. Annual memberships are available for individual students in your household, or the entire family. The OnePay annual membership fee is $12.95 for a single student, or $26.95 per family. This means you pay one annual membership fee for all electronic check (not credit card) payments. To determine whether a OnePay membership is more cost effective, consider how many times you will make an electronic check payment (not credit card) using the MySchoolBucks service during the school year. If you have multiple students, or are making payments frequently, then a OnePay membership might be more cost effective than Pay-As-You-Go. Please note that all transaction fees are charged by MySchoolBucks.  The Belmont Public Schools does not receive any of the transaction fees. If you do not already have a MySchoolBucks account, please visit: www.myschoolbucks.com to create your account. If you need assistance with your account, you can find how-to videos and answers to commonly asked questions. Or, you can contact MySchoolBucks support directly by logging into your account to start a chat conversation or give them a call at (855) 832-5226. For additional information about fees, please go to the district's online payment website.
