SIMS & PARS and using biometrics for registering years 12 & 13

[number34]

We are going to be installing cashless catering from September. As it will 'work' using thumb prints we are wondering of using them as a way of keeping track of our year 12 and 13 pupils. Has anyone tried doing this and been successful?

Who are you using for your cashless? Some of the bigger companies integrate with PARS.

Nationwide Trust-E. The sales rep said they work with PARS but one school I have spoken to said they could not get it to work.

Have you spoke directly to TASC? Their support is top notch. I'd seriously be suprised if couldn't get it to work, if its something they support.

TASC put me in touch with the school who had problems. I agree with you that TASC support is great and I was surprised they had difficulties. I am still hopeful that we will get it to work.
