A million users in over 1700 schools throughout the UK.

We design, build and maintain industry leading, reliable and functional cashless payment systems under the brand name IMPACT, providing a full service from consultancy, installation, training and launch through to an exceptional after-sales support service.

Founded in 1963, we have accumulated much experience in secure, online cashless catering since we installed our first system in 1993.  To date more than 1700 schools throughout the UK are using an IMPACT cashless system.

Each solution is designed to meet the particular requirements of the individual brief, but no matter what hardware configuration is most appropriate, the user interface, at POS, Back Office and Central Server is consistent throughout.

IMPACT enhances the catering operation in Secondary & Primary Schools. 

IMPACT
can identify its users by many means including most (if not all) types of plastic card, touchscreen name filters (with or without photographs) and fingerprint recognition, alleviating cards and the cost and management issues that can be associated with them.

IMPACT the most widely used cashless payment system in UK schools, integrates with your existing best of breed management systems including; Serco Facility CMIS, Capita SIMS, ParentPay, Civica, Biostore, Nutmeg, Saffron, PukkaStuff and DRS e-registration. Integration with other products can be added as required.
