Raising the bar for cashless school payments
A mobile app was launched to enable parents to make secure, cashless payments for school-related expenses. As the user base expanded, the platform required modernisation, stronger security, and the ability to support future growth. NCS introduced new capabilities, including automated monitoring, enhanced cybersecurity, and strengthened compliance. Built on a modern, scalable architecture, the upgraded platform delivers faster updates and smoother performance. It helps the client improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and scale effectively across the merchant network. Parents now enjoy a seamless payment experience, while schools and merchants benefit from time savings, automated reporting, and greater visibility to optimise day-to-day operations.
