Nelnet Campus Commerce is making waves in the higher education sector with its recent launch of Notify, a cutting-edge communication platform designed to streamline billing and payment processes for colleges and universities. Announced on August 12, 2025, Notify addresses the growing demand for timely and personalized communication between educational institutions and their students. As students increasingly seek relevant and immediate information regarding their accounts, Notify enables schools to respond to these expectations through its innovative automation and real-time syncing features.
The platform significantly reduces the manual workload on staff by facilitating automated outreach, allowing institutions to send payment reminders, registration deadlines, and other critical messages with minimal effort.
