More future, cashless

Collecting money is tedious and costs teachers time and effort. Our solution saves a lot of it. We introduce: FoxPay.

Who has already paid?

FoxPay is a digital payment management tool for educational institutions. In combination with our SchoolFox and KidsFox apps, it automatically allocates collected cash and bank transfers to pupils. This allows you to see at a glance who has already paid the money and where it is still missing.

The practical class fund function makes it possible to pay in a fixed amount at the beginning of the year, for example. Over the months, different amounts can then be deducted depending on the student without having to constantly collect money.

FoxPay takes good care of your funds: We partner with a German company to check the accounts for us. These checks are super secure, GDPR-compliant and only involve transactions related to schools – nothing else. Furry promise!

Pays off: FoxPay for Schools and Daycare Centres.

Collecting contributions for schools or daycare centres doesn’t have to be time-consuming in 2024. Digital solutions like FoxPay bring a plus in terms of overview and data protection.

Collecting each amount individually – that was once upon a time. With the practical class fund function, parents can pay in once and deduct amounts on an ongoing basis.

Let’s assume that some pupils prefer to drink chocolate milk, others prefer strawberry milk. If these cost different amounts, these amounts can be deducted individually from the deposits. Pretty clever.

Where is the money – a question that teachers should not have to deal with. Instead of keeping money in different places (with a teacher, in the school safe, in different accounts, with the school management), FoxPay offers a central point of contact for all the students’ money. Great, isn’t it?

A classroom is not a debt collection agency. After all, chasing is supposed to be about playing catch, not collecting copy money.

This is where FoxPay can help – it allows you to easily view the current account balance digitally, send payment reminders if necessary and thus have more time for the essentials: Teaching.

El Zorro shows you FoxPay.

For all clever foxes and those aspiring to be: Our webinar shows you how things run in the world of digital payments.

Dear parents, this is how you pay school fees in 2024.

Copying fees, school milk, and more: In schools and daycare centres, it doesn’t work without funds. To ensure that these contributions only cost money and not nerves, we have developed FoxPay.

With FoxPay, your child no longer needs to take on the role of a treasurer but can look forward to school days with ease. Cash intended for school goes directly into the digital class fund, without the school store along the way mysteriously claiming it for gum costs again.

FoxPay clearly shows which contributions have already been paid and which are still outstanding.

As parents, you receive the payment requests and can specify whether you want to pay them in cash or by bank transfer. For the latter, all you have to do is copy the account information and paste it into your online banking platform. If possible, you can also scan the generated QR code from another screen using your smartphone’s online banking app.

Prepayment is also practical: you only have to pay in once. You can then see at any time when and for what purpose amounts are debited from this sum. If you pay in €50 at the start of school, for example, you can see when €5 for arts and crafts, €2 for school milk or other costs have been deducted.

Clever, we think.

Foxes sniff around a lot on the ground to find something good. We Foxies don’t do that. Because only payments with ‘Fox’ in the purpose field are shown to us.

Our German partner company has a lot of experience in this field, helps us ensuring that your data is protected and only the necessary information makes its way into the FoxBurrow. Furry promise!

Who has how many bucks is private business. We Foxies respect that. However, for FoxPay to work, we need to be able to check who has already transferred the money and who hasn’t, especially for bank transfers. That’s why we brought a German partner with us to the FoxBurrow.

Our German partner has developed technology that allows querying account data and holds a BaFin license (Federal Financial Supervisory Authority) and is TÜV certified.

This ensures GDPR-compliant handling and maximum privacy. FoxPay only sees transactions related to the school or daycare centre of the children. Nothing else. Furry promise!
