SchoolCafé

The app itself is fine. I use the computer usually, but I suppose this is more convenient. I don't like the 5% fee as others have stated. It's the same fee online, so it doesn't matter how you access. Every year the lunch goes up some and I have 3 in the district. We are just over the threshold for reduced lunch so it sucks. And I don't see the menus, only transactions. They should waive the fee if you put on automatic payments!!

Convenience fee is absolute fraud. Even if you submit $ to school they have to use the portal to add to child's account thus you still get the charge. Filed with BBB and wrote to school district. They assured we weren't the only unhappy parents and they will be switching

Ripoff 5% "convenience" fee per payment? Convenience for who? Not me. And why isn't PayPal a payment option? It was for My Nutri Kids. Hate this app, poorly designed, limited payment options, and even though I signed up, no history is available for either of my kids.

Purchase history is always 3-5 days behind. I hate the $20 minimum limit & after reading other comments I didn't even know there was a fee I need to look in to that as I don't remember reading anything about an extra fee. Customer service sucks get different information everytime I speak to someone and now they're trying to blame the school district for the delay which the school says they have nothing to do with the app. This has been an ongoing problem since school started almost 2 months ago & its still not fixed. Maybe the school district should find another company to use.

My child's school was not listed. He is at Bryan Harmony Science Academy. This app is useless to me since I can't even set it up.

Totally love the fact that I'm not having to find parking, go to the office and wait in line with all the other parents, just to add money to my kids lunch account. With this I'm able to see when their balance is low rather than having to guess and I'm able to reload at my leisure! 5% is well worth the extra time and hassle it's saving me!

I prefer My schoolbucks over this i was able to just attach my bank account now you have to use a card and they require a minimum of $20 i may not want to add that much just wanted to do $10 couldn't do that .

I use to be able to add money whenever I wanted didn't have to do auto pay . I also don't like the 5% fee.

Does not show updated balance, so I have no idea how much is in my daughter's account!

Making a max payment of $100 makes you have to many times throughout a school year. Also makes you have to pay the fee each time.

Fayetteville District doesn't show up... That says a lot of the application, I'm uninstalling it now.

Convenience fee is a JOKE! Will definitely not pay through the app.

I juat need to refill out my childs application for the free lunch program

This should be a free service. Convenience fee is total rip off.

Super excited that my kids school finally has a way for us to pay online! So much more convenient!! App is very user friendly!

I can't even sing in as a Student like in the pc

The convenience fee is ridiculous.

Fee charged is way to high!

My SchoolBucks was a way better app

Convenience fee too high.

Can't save school, can't print menu.

Easy to use and quick

Better than nothing

I don't know why the app won't allow me to go further than the green schoolcafe page? When I first started this account, I was excited to be able to check my daughter's meal account. But now, no matter if I uninstall and reinstall, it's still don't open up for me. Did the app got updated and not allow phones like mine's to not be compatible? I have a Samsung Galaxy 3 Lite. Pls advise.

When entering expiration date, the years show as 20.. Unable to see last 2 digits so have to guess until it's right... Love low balance notifications but at what balance does it notify? Please let me choose at what balance you notify...

Balances aren't always up to date, and the 5% fee - no matter who determined that amount (as mentioned defensively in another developer response) - is a bit much. Definitely more than the previous app, why the increase? Both apps do the same exact thing.

The convenience fee is rather high and the transfer limits are inhibitory. I may not always be able to afford the minimum at the time of transfer, so the app is pretty useless.

App is okay. There seems to be a glitch when adding CC info, especially zipcode. Please fix before school starts!

Thank you for providing ease of access to busy families who are always on the go!

I cant Access why

Easy and convenient

The app works fine I suppose. The fee is dumb, because they limit how much u can put in at one time so they always get their chunk. I have two kids, so if I use auto funding, it charges the fee twice. So I have to manually add money to them together and it only charges the fee once. I don't know what my kids are buying because the terms are very generic. It is hard to decide what items to limit if u don't know what they are.

The app is easy to use. I just hate that you have to pay 2 $ fee everytime you put money on it.

I love it! So much better than getting notes from school when the kids accounts were empty or low. I especially like the minimum balance reminder! The fee is a small price to pay for convenience. I think everyone should use this app!

The app itself is okay, but it's ridiculous to impose a $100 limit per transaction, even if loading balance for multiple kids. Seems like a fee grab since I'm adding $25/kid almost weekly.

Update it was fixed now and works good Not sure if its down but its telling me wrong username/password but I have had it set up to remember me with no issues and no changes for over a year now I cant log inro my childs account. Not the first rime this has happened...

Great concept if I could get my account set up.

Love the app. The fee doesn't bother me. Saves me time of going to the school to deposit. Plus the school only takes check or card.

Very useful and easy to make a payment. I also love that I can see what my son is buying for lunch.

Easy to use and I like that I can keep track of what they're buying daily.
