Can pupils without access to mobile phones still use your pre-ordering solutions?

Can CRB Cunninghams link to my MIS?
Yes, Fusion Cashless integrates with leading school MIS’s. User information is synchronised between Fusion and the school’s MIS, ensuring users only need to register once. If changes are made to the MIS, Fusion updates automatically and can write back to the MIS, ensuring data is accurate and always updated.

I definitely think it (Fusion) can help with food wastage. When sales figures come to you, you know what days will be busy based on the menus. Having all the information with us at the right times will help us order and create menus for the students based on the information we’re getting daily.
Duncan Thornley Yates, Catering Manager at Etone College
“Everybody has an Access Control card, which is also their ID card. One of the driving forces behind the school is to create work-ready young people. Having an ID card linked to an automatic access system and cashless catering solution is much more like being in a business than a college.”
