Promoting Your School Store Online
Maximizing parent participation and online fee collection requires prominent, easy-to-find purchase links across your school's digital channels. Bookkeepers and webmasters can integrate Edlio Payments (OSP) directly into the Edlio CMS website navigation, homepage link tiles, news posts, and the mobile school app.
đĄ Best-Practice Adoption Tip: In your Edlio CMS admin panel, add a dedicated "Pay Online" button in your primary header navigation and a permanent tile in your homepage Links section. Placing direct store links in prominent navigation locations increases online fee collection by over 40%.
Finding Your Store and Category URLs
You can link directly to your general school store or to specific categories and items:
Main Store URL: From the Pay Management Dashboard, click View Store at the top. Copy the browser URL (e.g.,
https://osp.osmsinc.com/YourDistrict/BVModules/CategoryTemplates/...).Category-Specific URLs: Click into an individual category (such as Athletics or Yearbooks) and copy the URL. Use this link in athletic department news articles or yearbook flyers so parents land directly on the relevant items.
Single Product URLs: Click on a specific product page and copy the direct URL. Ideal for embedding in teacher classroom newsletters or field trip permission slips.
Embedding Store Links in the Edlio CMS
In your Edlio CMS admin, navigate to Site Management > Navigation or Page Management > Links.
Click Add Link.
Enter the title (e.g., Online School Payments or School Store).
Paste your direct Edlio Pay URL.
Set the link target to open in a new browser tab (
_blank).Click Save.
