Touchnet Payment System Requirements

New Multi-Factor Authentication Requirements

Touchnet is the company that SCCCD uses to process payments. As of today June 2, 2025, Touchnet has implmented Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), for all payment transactions conducted online.

When you sign into U.Commerce for the first time, you will be prompted to set up an authentication account by entering your email and phone number. This email and phone number will be used to send you a unique verification code that you will enter when logging into U.Commerce.

Once your MFA account is set up, you enter your U.Commerce username and password, select your verification method (email or phone), and you will receive a verification code. Enter the code on the Account Login screen and you're logged into U.Commerce.
