If your Premium payment method has expired, been compromised, needs updating, or the payment failed, we recommend adding a new payment method right away to avoid any disruption to your subscription.

Note on permissions: Only Admins can update a subscription payment method. Ensure you have the Admin or Multi-Site Admin role. If not, contact a higher-level administrator for assistance.


Add a new Premium subscription payment method

You can easily change your subscription’s default payment method or remove old ones. Newly added payment methods usually become the default automatically, so no extra steps are needed for auto-payments.

  1. In the sidebar menu, click My School > Settings

  2. Choose the tab Upgrade or Subscriptions (depending on the status of your subscription)

  3. In the ‘Payment Methods’ tile, click + Add new to link a credit/debit card or bank account

Note on micro-deposits: When linking a bank account with micro-deposits, enter the two small deposits (arriving within 24–48 hours) in brightwheel under My School > Settings > Subscriptions, then click Verify next to the payment method.


Troubleshoot failed Premium subscription payments

If your payment fails, check that your current payment method details are correct and update your payment method if needed.

Once a new payment method is added, the payment should automatically be retried on the date shown in your Subscription tab. If you wish for the payment to be retried on a different date, reach out to our team and let us know.
