What kind of work is required for Flywire connectors?

The integration between the SFS and your SIS/ERP requires your IT department to work with Flywire's implementations team.

Before an integration can be completed, you will need to prepare your system. You must:

  • Verify your system meets the system requirements.

  • Whitelist Flywire's IP addresses.

  • Determine whether your students will use SSO to log into the SFS.
