Pre-order. Online payments. Contactless cards.
Reduced contact
Fusion Online Pre-Order App
Our Pre-order app, Fusion Online, removes transactions from the dining hall to offer a truly contactless identification method. Secondary school pupils can order their favourite lunches straight from their mobile device to pick up from a designated collection point at lunchtime.
Schools can assign multiple collection points in the school dining hall to help control traffic flow and increase turnover. Fusion Online sends pre-ordered meal choices to the kitchen ahead of time, which means that catering staff can prepare meals in advance for pupils to collect at lunchtime, offering schools an increased speed of service and a reduction in food wastage.
iPayimpact online payments
iPayimpact seamlessly connects to your school's cashless system, which means that parents can top-up their child's account online, and pupils can see their live cashless balance via our pre-ordering app. When pupils pre-order their lunch selection via Fusion Online, their cashless balance is adjusted accordingly, meaning their lunch is already ordered and paid for ahead of lunchtime. The combination of iPay and Fusion Online means that schools can completely remove physical transactions from the dining hall.

"Many thanks to CRB Cunninghams for getting us up and running with the contactless cards and pre-order app. It was an excellent project and a pleasure to work with you all! I’ve had excellent feedback and expressions of thanks from senior officers, and more importantly, I have been inundated with requests from pupils wanting to sign up. I would highly recommend Fusion Online to other schools. In fact, I’m already advising other councils to implement the software."
