INTRODUCTION

EPAY is an online fee payment system, which is used to pay fee online using debit/credit
card or various other means of online payment. Any Institute will have various branches
consisting of thousands of students and it becomes very difficult to handle the fee payment
process for so many students. Therefore, EPAY is designed to overcome this problem
prevailing in the practice of manual system.

A student has to register first in order to pay college fees. During registration process user
has to include all details such as university number, year, section, email. After registering
student will receive an OTP in the email, which was mentioned during the registration
process for security purpose after which a student will be able to login and pay the college
fees using debit\credit or any other online payment methods.

1. 1 ABOUT THE MINI PROJECT

The scope of the project is to develop an online fees payment system that enables students
and their parents to securely pay university fees online using credit/debit cards and other
payments methods.

The User interface Frontend languages used to design the application are HTML, CSS and
backend language used is C# (C Sharp). This application is used to pay college fees, bus
fee (if a student uses it).It maintains a uniform and a central payment record, which can
be accessed by the respective authority, and this system avoids any ambiguity in payments.

To pay fees online, student has to register first and then login to pay fees. While
registration all the details of students are stored so that they can be verified in future if
needed. Further an OTP will be sent to the email mentioned during registration which has
to be entered while registration process for security reasons, after which student can easily
login and pay the fee through various online payment methods at their own comfort.

LITERATURE SURVEY

An e-payment system is a way of making transactions or paying for goods and

services through an electronic medium, without the use of checks or cash. It’s also
called an electronic payment system or online payment system. Read on to learn
more.

The electronic payment system has grown increasingly over the last decades due to
the growing spread of internet-based banking and shopping. As the world advances
more with technology development, we can see the rise of electronic payment
systems and payment processing devices. As these increases, improve, and provide
ever more secure online payment transactions the percentage of check and cash
transactions will decrease.

E-commerce, as well as m-commerce, is getting bigger year after year, so having

an e-payment system in your online store is a must. It’s simple, fast and convenient,
so why not have one?
Still, one of the most popular payment methods are credit and debit card payments,
but people also choose some alternatives or local payment methods. If you run an
online business, find out what your target audience needs and provide the most
convenient and relevant e-payment system.

DESIGN
4.1 ER Diagram

An entity-relationship diagram (ER Diagram) is a data modeling technique that

graphically illustrates an information system's entities and the relationships between those
entities. An ER Diagram is a conceptual and representational model of data used to
represent the entity framework infrastructure.

.2 Schema Diagram
A database schema is the skeleton structure that represents the logical view of the entire
database. It defines how the data is organized and how the relations among them are
associated. It formulates all the constraints, which can will applied on the data.

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE ENHANCEMENT

7.1 Conclusion
Thus, we have successfully implemented online fee payment Database
Management System which helps us in administrating the data used for student fee
collection Database Management System.

After analyzing the cost benefit analysis of the current system and the present fee
collection System, we conclude that present system is the best. This software will
help the user to go through ease of fee collection. We are providing easy to pay
payment methods and digital fee receipts so; everything is automated in our
“Online fee payment system”.

7.2 Future Enhancement

The problem of fee payment can be solved using our application, which enables
students and their parents to securely pay their required fees online using
credit/debit or other digital payment methods.

Further we can integrate this project with standard payment gateways and start the
commercial operations.
