Thank you very much for your assistance over the past several years!
San Diego Unified School District has used PayPAMS for on-line payments to our food services department for many years. When our district began charging transportation fees, PayPAMS set up a separate department for handling these additional transactions. The program interfaces with our student population database, which made the transition very easy.

What a convenience PayPAMS is for parents and our school district. It's very easy and conducive for everyone. With the Android and iPhone app, parents are able to pay on the run. Also, with the ability to complete the registration form online, this has made it even easier for parents to enroll in our programs. District staff are able to see payments almost immediately and to retrieve registration forms. We get great customer service and technical support. PayPAMS has been able to customize our requests to fit our needs. I am very happy with the decision we made to work with PayPAMS.

I was skeptical that PayPAMS would really be used by parents in my district. WOW was I wrong....I wish I hadn't waited 3 years to get on board....This great tool brings $12,000+ a month into meal accounts for students without parents having to send cash to school with their children.
