Tuicamp, a Cashless Payment System for UK Schools.
The idea arose during school runs, hearing from several other parents who were frustrated with the existing cashless apps used by the school for their children. As a software developer, I thought I could harness the power of modern technology while keeping in mind that not all parents/carers are tech-savvy.
