When a recurring billing transaction fails for any reason, the student's name will appear on the Billing Dashboard under Unpaid Students. To run an immediate transaction, this will be a two-step process. Step One: Run a New Transaction 1. From the Billing section, go to your Transactions tab and choose **New Transaction**. 2. Select the Student or Family to be charged, the amount to charge, the payment reason, and the payment method. 3. Enter in the payment information. 4. Click **Charge**. Step Two: Mark as Paid 1. Return to your Billing Dashboard. 2. Locate the Student or Family on the Unpaid Student list. 3. To the right, click **Mark as Paid**. 4. The first pop-up will state that this will add a non-processed transaction to the recurring billing and will update the recurring billing as if the payment had gone through as intended. This will update the paid through date and the number of payments left (if not ongoing/unlimited). If you wish to proceed, click **Yes**. 5. The second pop-up allows you to: 6. Choose the Payment Method for reporting purposes. 7. Decide if you would like to create a payment record. If you followed Step One, there is already a record of the payment; to avoid creating a duplicate payment record in your system, select **Do Not Create Payment Record**. 1. Click **Continue**. You have successfully taken a payment and updated the recurring billing for this student or family. Their name will now be removed from the Unpaid Student list. - [A Beginners Guide to Kicksite](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/a-beginners-guide-to-kicksite) - [Video Library](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/video-library#main-content) - [Training Tutorials](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/video-library#training-tutorials) - [Students](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/students#main-content) - [Student FAQ](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/students#student-faq) - [Managing Students](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/students#managing-students) - [Memberships](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/students#memberships) - [Student User Experience](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/students#student-user-experience) - [Tools](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/tools) - [Communications](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/communications#main-content) - [General Announcements](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/communications#general-announcements) - [Automated Alerts](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/communications#automated-alerts) - [Message Flows](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/communications#message-flows) - [Settings](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/settings#main-content) - [Managing Employees](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/settings#managing-employees) - [Programs](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/settings#programs) - [Memberships](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/settings#memberships) - [Account Information](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/settings#account-information) - [Prospects](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/prospects#main-content) - [Adding Prospects](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/prospects#adding-prospects) - [Managing Prospects](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/prospects#managing-prospects) - [Attendance](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/attendance#main-content) - [Managing Attendance](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/attendance#managing-attendance) - [Tracking Attendance](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/attendance#tracking-attendance) - [Biz-Builders](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/biz-builders#main-content) - [Biz-Builder FAQ](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/biz-builders#biz-builder-faq) - [Leads](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/biz-builders#leads) - [Profit Items](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/biz-builders#profit-items) - [Agreements and Waivers](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/biz-builders#agreements-and-waivers) - [Finance](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/finance#main-content) - [Invoices](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/finance#invoices) - [Billing](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/finance#billing) - [The Vault](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/finance#the-vault) - [Finance FAQ](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/finance#finance-faq) - [Managing Events](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/managing-events#main-content) - [Belt Testing Events](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/managing-events#belt-testing-events) - [General Events](https://support.kicksite.com/migration/managing-events#general-events) - [Default HubSpot Blog](https://5146659.hs-sites.com/) [![Kicksite Logo](https://support.kicksite.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Transparent%20Horizontal-1.png?width=2000&height=382&name=Transparent%20Horizontal-1.png "Kicksite Logo")](http://kicksite.com) kicksite.net Help Center Copyright © 2026, Kicksite
