The Campus Mobile Payments app, available for Android and iOS devices, allows districts who use the School Store to enter credit/debit card purchases in real-time at school or district events.
A Mobile Payments option has been added to the Categories and General Product tools (School Store > Administration > Categories and School Store > Product Inventory > General Product). This option allows Categories, Products, and Product Items to be assigned to an event. The Product Items can then be purchased at the event.
The Events tool in School Store > Administration is used to create an event, assign a Cashier PIN to a Category, and arrange the Product Items in a layout that will be displayed on a mobile device.
The Device Management tool allows users to set up a device to be used at an event. A QR code is used to connect the device with Campus information. Once connected, the Cashier PIN is entered to access the event.
A Bluetooth card reader is available from Campus and is required for the Campus Mobile Payments app. Contact your sales representative or Client Relationship Manager for more information.
