Paying Course Tuition


< Back to support page


Students can purchase tuition-based LMS courses and other training-related activities in two ways: Direct Bill or Credit Card. Thanks to Latitude’s partnership with PayPal, learners who enroll in tuition-based courses can use their Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, or debit cards to make online payments, or agree to be invoiced for the cost of tuition.

LMS users can always log into the system, search their Course Catalog, and view course details for free. They will only be prompted for payment upon clicking the “Enroll” button for a course that is set to require tuition.

Direct Billing

Students at locations for which “Direct Billing” has been enabled can fill out the Tuition Payment form as described below, then click Complete Purchase to finalize their enrollment.


  • Coupon Code: This option is only available in portals that have the “Coupon Discounts” feature enabled. If you have a valid coupon code for LMS tuition, enter it here and click Apply Coupon. Portal Administrators can learn more about providing Discounts in the Discount Coupons for Course Tuition document.
  • Purchase Order / Reference Number: Enter a purchase order number or other reference you want to include with your payment information. This can help LMS Administrators and accounts receivable staff bill and reconcile statements for purchased training.
  • *Billing Agreement (required field): Students must agree to the billing statement in order to enroll in a tuition-based course.

Credit Card

To pay course tuition with a credit or debit card, complete the fields on the payment form as described below, then click Complete Purchase to finalize the enrollment.


  • Coupon Code: This option is only available in portals that have the “Coupon Discounts ” feature enabled. If you have a valid coupon code, enter it here and click Apply Coupon.

Portal Administrators can learn more about providing Discounts in the Discount Coupons for Course Tuition document.
  • First Name and Last Name (as on Card): Enter these names as they appear on the card.
  • Credit Card: Select the card brand from the drop-down list.
  • Card Number: Enter the credit card number. This field will validate the number and return an error if found invalid.
  • Expiration Date: Enter the month and year on which the card expires.
  • Card Verification Number: Enter the card verification number. For Visa, MasterCard, and Discover, this is the 3-digit number on the back of your card found after the account number (or after the last 4-digits of your account number) in the signature panel. For American Express cards, this is the 4-digit number printed on the front of your card above and to the right of the embossed account number.
  • Billing Address: Complete all the required fields in the Billing Address section to match the information on record with your card provider.

Payment Inquiries and Support

Students can expect to receive course enrollment confirmation messages as usual.

All credit card payments are processed through PayPal’s Secure Payment platform. Direct billing is not processed through the LMS, so invoices will come from your organization’s preferred billing platform. Please contact your training company or LMS administrators with questions regarding invoice charges, payment discrepancies, or refund requests. These requests are not supported by LatitudeLearning®.
