Cashless Catering Service

We are a cashless catering service, each student will have their biometrics taken, and/or be given a pin number which will be linked to a ParentPay account. Money is then deducted from the account according to what the student has purchased.

Parents can set daily amount limits and access information about what the student has eaten, and students benefit from a faster service through the canteen.
