Education payments on 3rd party application (Infinia or Atlas or IndusInd Legacy)

I have to make Education payment for Kangaroo Kids School around 2L per year. School does not have their own app or website to collect fee.
They have tie up with Parents Portal app where payments need to be paid.
App is charging 1.3% extra for Infinia CC and 1.65% extra for Atlas CC.

Infinia do not give reward points for education payments done on third party apps. On top of that they charge 1% extra also.. so net loss for Infinia is 2.3%
Atlas gives RPs on education so net profit will be 2-1.65% = 0.35% for Atlas
IndusInd Legacy gives 0.7% on education payments so net will be loss after deducting 1.6% charge..

I also have AirtelCC/RewardsCC/NeoCC from Axis.
I also have Neu InfinityCC from HDFC.
HSBC Cashback/Live+ does not give RPs on education
Icici coral and Sapphiro
Amex not accepted in the app.

SCAN and pay option also available but CC are not allowed..

Would like to use Atlas... any other tips?

Have you tried doing payment? My kids school uses Entab for fees management (with same convenience fees of 1.3%). I paid the fees via Entab school login and got 3.3% without any 1% surcharge on Infinia one week back

Every school is going to use such specialised 3rd party payment apps only. Schools don't have their own gateways. HDFC restriction is applicable for apps like Cred, Cheq, housing etc. which are generic education payment apps

oh.. Let me try paying small amount and check
 
I am also paying DPS fee using ATOM PG and getting 3.3% from Infinia.
Net = 3.3%-1% (PG charge) +1% (HDFC DC credit card payment method) = 3.3%
does anyone have any idea if this will work on SBI Collect as well? need to pay fees of 1.10 Lakh and planning to use Infinia for this. payment portal is SBI collect.
