Private + boarding schools

The features private schools actually want.

Fees, dorms, premium parent comms, bus routes that cover the whole city. The same platform powers Timor-Leste's public schools; private schools just turn on the modules they need.

Top up with SOTcoin or pay direct. Receipts auto-generated. The accounts office sees a clean ledger every morning.


Bus + Meals in one tap

Newsletter that gets read
