Tracking payments
How payments work in Adminished
Adminished tracks who owes money and who has paid — it does not take card payments directly. You collect money however you normally do (cash, bank transfer, SumUp) and record it here.
Generate monthly charges
- Go to Payments in the top navigation.
- Click Generate charges for [month].
- Adminished creates a charge for each active student based on their billing type:
- Monthly — one fixed monthly fee per class enrolled.
- Drop-in — a per-session fee multiplied by sessions attended that month.
You can also add one-off charges manually — useful for membership fees, kit, gradings or event fees.
Record a payment
- On the Payments page, find the student with an outstanding balance.
- Click Record payment.
- Enter the amount received and choose the method (cash, bank transfer, etc.).
- Click Save. The balance updates immediately.
Outstanding balances report
The Payments page shows a running total of outstanding balances. Use the "Outstanding" filter to see only students who owe money.
