How to pay your invoice with iPay
A new way to pay
Most individual invoices can now be paid on the website without iPay—no sign-in or registration required. Please continue to use iPay for bulk and partial payments. See Pay on the website for more information.
For customers who choose to use Purchase Orders (PO’s), Pearson has a bill management system (iPay) to view account balances, obtain copies of invoices, as well as make a payment.
Please note, the iPay sign-in is separate from the Pearson website or other online applications. Based on the password you set, sign-in credentials may differ from your other accounts.
