LOCAL AUTHORITIES AND SCHOOLS CAN BENEFIT FROM STREAMLINE
The most convenient way to pay for all types of goods and services nowadays is by debit or credit card and payments made in schools by parents and guardians, e.g. for day trips, are no exception. The option to pay by card provides a practical and versatile alternative to the traditional methods of cash and cheque and also provides the additional benefit of payment over the phone or via the Internet.
Streamline, the UK's number one choice for card payment processing, can bring the efficiency and reassurance of card payments to every school in your Authority’s area. In an increasingly accountable and results driven world, benefits go beyond smoother administration into security and cost-efficiency.
How Local Authorities and Schools benefit?
- Improved efficiency - less time spent counting cash and processing cheques
- Time saving - funds are deposited into a bank account within four working days
- Reduced administration - for school bursars and accountants
- Improved security - with less cash around there's a reduced risk of theft and less responsibility on pupils to keep cash safe
- Greater choice – offers more payment options for parents/guardians
