How do families customize their balance notification settings?

This article will explain how families can customize their balance notification (SMS, voice, email) settings.

Families can have the option to customize their balance notification settings. This allows them to receive notice of their low family balance per their preferences. Schools must enable this option. To enable this option for families, go to Wordware District Site>Families tab>Family Website Settings.
