What Intuition Payment Solutions does

Intuition Payment Solutions is a private SaaS company operating as a subsidiary of Ferrilli, providing an integrated tuition and fee payment platform exclusively to U.S. higher education institutions. Headquartered in Haddonfield with a sub-10 employee headcount, the company was established in 2012 and runs a fully integrated platform combining payment plans, a storefront e-commerce module, and a deposits/forms module — all supported by real-time ERP integrations and a 100% U.S.-based service team.

The platform is built around three core modules: Payment Plans (customizable semester-based and annual plans with consolidated 72-hour deposits, real-time ERP posting with auto-rebalance, and paperless eBill), Storefront (a customizable e-commerce engine for donations, camps, events, merchandise, and rentals), and Deposits and Forms (secure customizable forms for enrollment and housing deposits plus 1098T tax form delivery). The underlying differentiator is deep real-time integration with the dominant higher education ERPs — Ellucian, Oracle, and Workday — alongside partnerships with industry-leading payment processors. Security is delivered through Multi-Factor Authentication and Single Sign-On.

Intuition generates revenue through annual SaaS subscriptions priced on a quote-based, custom enterprise basis with transparent pricing and no hidden charges. Distribution is exclusively direct enterprise field sales targeting higher education institutions, with demo requests and direct phone/email contact as the primary conversion mechanisms. The company benefits from Ferrilli's decades-long presence in higher education technology services for market credibility and customer access, but operates with no disclosed independent funding, no named management team, no public customer logos, and no revenue disclosures.
