The app is designed for schools to offer parents an easier way to pay for all school items directly from their mobile phones. Over 460,000 UK parents use CRB Cunninghams’ iPayimpact online payment system to pay for all school payments online.
There is an ‘overwhelming demand’ from schools as research has shown 80,000+ Google searches for ‘school online payment app’ in the past two years.
The iPayimpact app offers a convenient way for parents to pay for all school items, including meals, trips and clubs, anytime, anywhere, offering a modern way to manage school payments that reflects how parents pay for out-of-school items.
Tom Wheeler, product owner at CRB Cunninghams, said: “Whilst parents may not be our direct customers, their experience with iPayimpact is crucial for a successful school payment offering. With over 90% of online time now spent on mobile apps, creating a dedicated app for parents was a clear choice.
“Our goal is to ensure that parents experience a simple, fast, and reliable service anytime, anywhere. This launch is a major step in our mission to set the standard for parental experience in the market.”
The app can be downloaded from the Google or Apple Play Store by iPayimpact customers. Schools wishing to download the app can request more information on iPayimpact from CRB Cunninghams.
