We were tired of watching students get stuck on a fee.
SEVISmate is an independent payment service operated by Graymont Group USA LLC, registered in the United States. We built it because paying the I-901 SEVIS fee from Africa should not require a U.S. bank account, a Western Union trip, or a prayer. It should just work.
The U.S. side would like a money order. From Lagos.
The official I-901 system is set up for U.S. payment methods. USD-capable cards, money orders, Western Union Quick Pay, certified checks from a U.S. bank. For most students paying from outside the U.S., that means setup work, paperwork, or simply no option at all.
We pay the fee on your behalf in your local currency, with a card or mobile money you already have. Anywhere in the world. Receipt back in your dashboard. Go back to studying for your visa interview.
