Why schools choose StudentPayPlus
Three things that set us apart
We built StudentPayPlus for the people who actually run school canteens and stores – not just administrators. Here's what matters most:
Seamless integration with Sentral
No class lists to set up. Student data, year levels and rolls are already there – so parents are ready to order from day one.
Built for the pace of a busy canteen
From menu setup to automated reporting, every part of StudentPayPlus is designed to cut admin and keep your canteen running smoothly.
No upfront fees, no surprises
Transparent pricing with no upfront costs. More of what parents spend goes back to your school.

What StudentPayPlus does
Everything your school needs to run cashless, from day one.
StudentPayPlus handles the operational heavy lifting - so your staff can focus on running a great service, and your families get an experience that keeps them coming back.
Simplify operations
StudentPayPlus replaces paper slips, manual reconciliation and end-of-day cash counts with a single platform your staff can manage from anywhere. From order tracking to stock levels, everything your canteen or store needs to run smoothly is in one place.
Cashless convenience
Parents top up a secure digital wallet and pay directly from their phone - no cash, no correct change, no lost lunch envelopes. Automatic top-ups mean families never miss an order, and every transaction is recorded and visible to parents in real time.
Effortless fundraising
Set up donation campaigns and fundraisers for events, excursions, P&C causes or specific school departments in just a few clicks. Parents contribute directly through the same app they already use - no separate collection process needed.
Connected to Sentral
Familiar for everyone because StudentPayPlus is part of Sentral, student and class data is already there - no setup at the start of each year, no separate registration for families. Parents sign in through the Sentral for Parents app they already use, which means higher adoption from day one and less time spent on onboarding.
