--- title: "Online Payments" url: "https://www.fortisacademy.org.uk/for-parents/online-payments" school: "Fortis Academy" --- # Online Payments ![](https://www.fortisacademy.org.uk/images/logo/Arbor-Logo-For-white-backgrounds.png) Fortis Academy is a cashless environment, all payments for school related items such as Lunch Money, Trips and Equipment must be made through our online payment provider Arbor - we do not accept cash in school for any purpose. Your Arbor account can be viewed at any time and instantly topped up or accessed by the account holder using a debit or credit card. Conveniently, families only need one Arbor account, and it can be used to pay for all school related payments. Arbor Pay can be accessed via the Arbor Parent Portal or Arbor Parent App (**[click here](https://fortisacademy.org.uk/for-parents/parent-portal)** for more information on how to get started with creating your account) Here are some useful screenshots to help you get started topping up accounts and purchasing items from the school shop.
