Every student’s education is at the heart of what we do – and helping you create time for learning is just the beginning.

Our market-leading cashless payments software is relied upon by many local authorities to free up time in school, and to ensure the safety and security of pupils.

You may have heard that we have been accepted onto the Scotland Excel framework, and we’re incredibly excited to show other local authorities the power of our cashless paymentscashless catering, and kitchen management software.

We’ve already helped many local authorities across Scotland harness the power of our cashless payments system and create more efficient school offices at the same time. But the benefits don’t stop there: you can significantly reduce admin time spent processing payments, improve audit trails and a reduce parent debt.

With a comprehensive range of reports available, you can save time spent manually collating and analysing data and gain valuable insight in a few simple clicks.

You can access income reports from a centralised dashboard that provide high-level financial information for any school in your county. You can also access granular data on year group, class or individual pupils when required to ensure you get the data you need.

Our system is a perfect fit for local authorities, our centralised view allows you to gain visibility over all your schools from a single account, control over user permissions and banking access. Better yet, our specialised local authority tools allow you to create reports across your county, enabling you to compare data from all your schools in a single report.

Are you maintaining two separate systems? SEEMiS integrates easily into our system, and both work together seamlessly. Our in-house development team ensure our integration with SEEMiS is constantly maintained to ensure your connection is secure. Our system updates immediately with each pupil upload, so you can say good-bye to managing multiple systems.

Parent engagement is also taken care of with our built-in communication function. This allows schools to send payment alerts by email, letter, or text message; notifying parents when a new trip, club or menu is added. Parent debt is also easily managed with these tools as sending a gentle reminder to parents that their account has fallen into debt can be completed in a matter or minutes. You can even use this feature for your everyday school communications.

When you come on-board with ParentPay, we want to ensure you can hit the ground running. We have teams of people dedicated to ensuring you know what you are doing and how to operate the system. Bespoke implementation plans, training schemes and support are on hand whenever you need – we can also help your schools at any time during the day if they run into a problem.

With an average customer satisfaction rating of 94.56%* and an average call waiting time of just 47* seconds to reach a school support specialist, it is easy to see why so many schools and local authorities across Scotland choose us.

“Having ParentPay implemented in our school has been a major plus for us, reducing the amount of admin resource needed for handling cash. Tracking payments and debt is now much easier with the system.” – Dina Allison, Clerical Assistant, St Eunan’s Primary School, West Dunbarton

As well as cashless payments, we are also on the Scotland Excel framework for cashless catering and kitchen management. We can support you with the full package or a single product.
