How to Update the Application Fee
The application fee is configured at the screening template level in BoomScreen. To update the application fee for a specific template, follow these steps:
Log in to the Boom Partner Platform.
Click "Screening settings" in the left navigation.
Select the screening template whose application fee you want to update.
Scroll to the bottom of the screening template page and locate the application fee field.
Enter the updated application fee amount.
Click "Save changes" to apply the update.
The new application fee will apply to all new applicants invited after the change is saved. Applicants who have already started or submitted their application before the change was made will not be affected.
If you list your application fee in your Resident qualifications, please ensure that you update the language to reflect the new application fee.
