Ok, you’ve been getting a lot of transcripts. Some come by mail and you have to file them or keep them somewhere securely. Some come over email and you have to either store them digitally somewhere or print them out and file them as well.
Did you know that all of those academic transcripts you have been receiving (both paper and email) are coming through one credential platform: Parchment?
The Parchment Platform not only lets students and schools quickly find your office and send you their transcripts, but also helps you collect, manage, and organize those transcripts once you’ve received them. Parchment connects academic institutions, companies, government agencies, and learners with innovative technology solutions that streamline both sending and receiving transcripts.
With Parchment Receive, you have an easy-to-use, single place to store all of your transcripts that also connects to your existing systems.

Yes. But we’d be very sad to lose you, so please talk to us if you’re thinking about leaving.
We’re sorry but we do not give refunds for the Receive subscription or the Reserve Fund.
Not a problem. For monthly subscriptions, you will be moved to the next monthly tier pricing for your next scheduled monthly payment. For annual subscriptions, you will start a new annual subscription to receive another 500 documents over the next 12 months. Don’t worry, you won’t have any loss of service as your plan transitions as long as we have a valid credit card on file!
Please contact us to check how many documents you may have received from Parchment (via email or mail) in the last 12 months.
Once you have a Receive account, you can pre-pay for orders. This is called a Reserve Fund. If you do not place orders, then this will not apply to you, but if you do, the Reserve Fund is a great hassle-free way to place those orders because you do not have to enter your credit card details for each order.
To get a Reserve Fund and pre-pay for orders, please contact us so that we can set it up for you.
- You have 24 months to use the money in your Reserve Fund. We do not give refunds for any unused amount.
- You will get a notification in your Receive account when your Reserve Fund has 10% left.
- If you run out of money in your Reserve Fund, you can still place orders, but you will have to enter a credit card if there is a charge associated with the order. You can easily add more money to your Reserve Fund by contacting us.
- You must have a Receive account to get a Reserve Fund.
The cost is variable because Parchment Senders charge different amounts. Typical record fees range between $3.75 and $20.
Simply click the Order tab when you are in your Receive account and follow the instructions.
