Overview

Cashless Schools gives principals, bursars, school administrators, canteen managers and parents one platform to manage everyday payments, from tuckshop purchases and uniforms to fundraisers, school events, parent top-ups and school-issued value.

Problem to solve

Many schools still split canteen payments, student cards, school events, uniform shops, payment requests and parent communication across disconnected tools. That creates more cash handling, more admin and less visibility for school leadership and families.

Run school payments through one governed wallet and POS model

Give parents and guardians a digital way to fund student balances through mobile or web apps, then let students pay through NFC cards, QR codes, RFID-linked credentials or wallet-backed checkout points across the campus.

Support more than tuckshop spend

Use the same Allxs layer for canteens, tuckshops, uniform shops, stationery, school trips, clubs, fundraising drives, school events, QR check-ins, ticketing and approved school-store purchases instead of introducing a different process for each one.

Give bursars and operations teams practical control

Apply spending limits, approved categories, online payment requests, automated reminders, voucher rules and purchase-history visibility so the school controls how value moves while parents still get convenience and clarity.

Tie payment activity back to reporting and reconciliation

Finance and operations teams can review wallet top-ups, POS sales, bank-card payments, event revenue, voucher redemptions, stock movement, receipts and school-wide reconciliation through one reporting layer instead of chasing spreadsheets and manual cash counts.

Detail

Parent top-ups, live balances and receipts

Let parents fund meals, events, uniforms or approved spend while receiving balance updates, payment confirmations and transaction history in real time.

Detail

Student QR, NFC and wallet-backed payments

Support the card, wristband, QR or app flow that fits the campus while keeping the underlying value controlled in one wallet layer and available at POS or online.

Detail

School stores, trips, events and fundraising

Extend the same commerce model beyond the tuckshop into uniforms, stationery, clubs, event ticketing, school functions and campaign-led fundraising.

Detail

Inventory, reporting and finance control

Track stock, receipts, wallet activity, voucher usage and trading performance without relying on manual cash reconciliation at the end of the day.

Reporting and control

  • Reduce the amount of cash moving around the campus while keeping school-led controls on where and how value can be spent.
  • See top-ups, wallet balances, school-store sales, meal purchases, payment requests, rewards, ticketing and vouchers in one reporting view.
  • Give school leadership, bursars and operations teams a clearer picture of revenue, stock, parent activity and reconciled school trading.

How it works

A clear workflow from setup to daily operations.

  1. 01

    Configure school rules and payment paths

    Set up campuses, outlets, products, student credentials, approved spend categories, top-up methods, reminders and reporting requirements before rollout.

  2. 02

    Fund parent and student wallets

    Parents top up digitally, bank-card payments are accepted where needed, the school issues controlled balances when appropriate and students receive the card, QR or wallet identity used at the point of spend.

  3. 03

    Trade across campus and school activities

    Students and families use the same connected system for meals, tuckshop purchases, stores, tickets, trips, fundraising and approved event purchases.

  4. 04

    Track activity and close out cleanly

    School teams review top-ups, sales, receipts, stock, vouchers, event trading and reconciled totals without rebuilding the story from multiple systems.
