Flywire and Workday Expand Partnership for Global Higher Education Payments

Flywire has expanded its partnership with Workday, according to an announcement, integrating its payments and software platform with Workday Student, a student information system. The integration streamlines billing and payments processes for higher education institutions using Workday Student, improving administrative efficiency and enhancing the student experience. Flywire's payments and software technology offers a streamlined payment experience with hundreds of payment options, real-time data synchronization, and automatic posting of payment updates back to Workday Student. The partnership aims to create an efficient, transparent financial ecosystem for global education.

Flywire Corporation (Nasdaq: FLYW), a global payments enablement and software company, has expanded its partnership with Workday, Inc. to integrate its payments and software platform with Workday Student, a student information system (SIS) that automates and streamlines student operations, financials, academic planning, and registration. This integration aims to enhance the efficiency of billing and payment processes for higher education institutions utilizing Workday Student.

The new partnership, announced on October 16, 2025, positions Flywire as a Workday Certified provider. The integration enables real-time posting of payments, supports hundreds of payment methods, and provides native-currency payment tracking. Additionally, it automates reconciliation, reducing administrative work and operational inquiries by up to 40%.

Key operational claims include the ability to streamline billing and payments for global higher education institutions. Flywire's integration with Workday Student allows institutions to offer hundreds of payment options, capture student identification automatically, and post payments and payment-plan updates back to the SIS in real time. This reduces manual matching, automates posting, and centralizes reporting inside Workday Student while keeping a student-facing portal for receipts, 1098-T retrieval, and payment plans.

Flywire's Student Financial Software (SFS) solution can also be integrated with Workday Student to help institutions manage dynamic payment plans and past-due collections. Real-time data synchronization via Flywire's API ensures that students and families always access the most current account information within Flywire's portal, where they can easily view account details, retrieve 1098-T forms, make payments, and enroll in flexible payment plans.

Moreover, Flywire handles 529 disbursements, digitizing payment processing and automating cashiering with real-time posting so that student accounts are always up to date. This removes the need for paper checks, improving process efficiency and expediting payment delivery.

David King, CTO of Flywire, stated, "By integrating with Workday Student, we're providing a comprehensive solution that benefits both institutions and their students, delivering transparency, convenience, and security throughout the payment process. We’re thrilled to work together to deliver meaningful value to higher education institutions and families alike."
