Creating Authorized Payer Accounts 

Students have the option to set up another party to view and pay student bills. The authorized user (Parents, family members, friends, etc.) will need a one-time authorization issued by the student through the Transact Payment Portal. The student will need the name and email address of the payer they wish to authorize.

Billing statements are available online through the Transact Payment Portal. Students access Transact Payments through their my.EOU Portal login. 

**It is strongly recommended that students set up their authorized payers as soon as possible.**
