We allow you to create a fully managed canteen in one place
How are we different?
Some systems allow you to create one account per email address. Others might not allow you to store credit on one account, let alone multiple accounts for children. We handle it all!
How can people add money to their accounts?
We partnered with Stripe and you just need to connect to our system and everything will just work. Parents can add funds directly to their kids accounts.
Why us?
We were built for the sole needs of canteens and have worked with many camps over the years to refine the product to run as smoothly as possible for them.
How It Works
From signing up to sending refunds at the end of the summer.
Enter your credit card details, choose what your website URL will be (your-choice.keseftech.com) and sign up. We will only charge your credit card once your plan becomes active.
Once your account is active, you will be informed that you now have access to login to your new site, where you can set things up.
If you want to accept credit card payments from customers, you will need to connect your account to Stripe, our credit card processing partner. If you do not have an account with them yet, you will be able to create one. If you do not do this, then the only way to store funds on accounts is that you need to manually record payments via other means (e.g. cash, Zelle or external credit card payments)
In your new admin dashboard you will be able to create the available items for purchase and allow for some of them to be purchsed before the summer as well (for example cases of water). There are many more options there related to your menu!
Next up is your users. You have a number of options here. You can tell parents to create an account for themselves and to then add their children. There are no limits to the number of kids that a parent can have, and there is also no limit to the number of parents a kid can have. You can also add parents one at a time in the admin dashboard and add their children. You can also upload a CSV file with the campers and their parents email addresses.
If you have staff members who will be using their own accounts to make purchases, you can either allow them to create their own accounts or you can manually create ones for them as well.
Once accounts are all set up, parents and staff members can add funds or purchase items in their accounts. You can also choose on a per-person basis to allow people to accrue negative balances. They can also set or update details, such as birthday, picture, current grade, optional weekly spending limit and optional pin. These details will be used to verify the user when making a purchase. However, the security is only as strong as you make it.
When you are ready to accept purchases, you open up the point of sale as an admin or you can create a cashier account for purchases. You can also print out a purchase form per bunk for custom purchases outside the standard point of sale purchasing.
At the end of the summer, you can generate a report of all positive and negative balances, and for users that added funds via credit card, you can refund all credit cards at once.
