Wisepay was targeted by the cyber attack that has pulled its website offline after spotting a miscreant trying to spoof its card payment page.
The company claimed it has notified the UK Information Commissioner's Office and is collaborating with a cyber forensic organisation to conduct a more thorough investigation.
The group advised taking simple steps, such checking the online banking for unusual activity, as a preventative measure.
The college claimed they are looking into different payment options so that parents can continue to pay for their kid or daughter on a practical level.
