When a student completes a payment through UPI Direct and confirms it on their device, the payment request moves to the Paid status in your Collections dashboard.

At this stage, the payment is awaiting your verification. By confirming that the funds have been received in your bank account, you complete the payment process and finalize the student’s enrollment update.


Step 1: Open the Paid Tab

Navigate to the Collections section in your Lynk dashboard.

Tap the Paid filter to view all payment requests that students have marked as completed.

These are payments that require your review.


Step 2: Verify the Funds in Your Bank Account

Before confirming the payment, open your bank or UPI app and check whether:

  • The payment amount matches the requested amount

  • The funds have been successfully credited to your account

This step ensures that only valid payments are finalized.


Step 3: Choose the Appropriate Action

On the payment card, you will see two options:

Received

Select this if the funds are visible in your bank account.

Not Received

Select this if:

  • The payment has not reached your account

  • The amount is incorrect

  • You are unable to verify the transaction


Step 4: Confirm Your Action

After tapping Received, a confirmation popup appears.

Tap Confirm to finalize the payment.

The request is immediately processed and moved to the next status.


What Happens After Confirmation?

If You Mark as Received

  • The payment moves to the Settled tab

  • The transaction is finalized

  • The student’s enrollment records are updated automatically

If You Mark as Not Received

  • The payment is moved back to the Pending tab

  • The student can attempt payment again or share proof of transfer


Automatic Settlement After 7 Days

If a payment remains in the Paid tab and no action is taken, Lynk will automatically mark it as Settled after 7 days.

To maintain accurate records, it is recommended to review the Paid tab regularly and confirm payments as soon as funds are received.


Why Payment Confirmation Matters

Manual verification helps ensure that:

  • Only genuine payments are finalized

  • Enrollment records stay accurate

  • Payment disputes are handled correctly

  • Your collections remain organized and reliable


Conclusion

Confirming student payments is the final step in the UPI Direct flow. Once you verify the funds and mark the payment as received, Lynk automatically settles the transaction and updates the student’s enrollment, keeping your payment records accurate and up to date.
