Company profile
researched Aug 2026Meadow is a New York-based software company serving higher education institutions with tools that cover the student financial journey from application through graduation. Its product suite includes Meadow Price, a mobile net price calculator that produces personalized post-aid cost estimates and is described as SAI-compliant; Meadow Pay, a mobile-first student billing and payments product combining automated personalized communications, digital statements, self-service payment plans and a payments dashboard; Meadow Pre, a pre-collections/accounts receivable product for recovering past-due balances without punitive action; and Meadow Checkout, which lets campus departments collect non-tuition payments such as parking passes, lab fees, event costs and ID replacements.
The platform integrates with major student information systems including Banner, Colleague, PowerCampus, Jenzabar, PeopleSoft, Empower and CAMS, with implementation described as roughly 30 hours of institutional effort over about 12 weeks. Payments are processed through a partnership with Finix, and the company states it holds PCI DSS, NACHA and SOC 2 Type 2 accreditations. Payment plans run up to 12 monthly installments on Meadow Pay and up to 24 months on Meadow Pre. Institution-facing sites are branded to the school's own domain (for example pay.yourschool.edu) and require no app download by students.
