Spare - Smart Communities

The Spare platform connects schools, stores on campus, parents, and students. At Spare-enabled schools, parents can rest assured that their children have arrived at school safely, and are able to buy whatever they want without carrying any cash. Furthermore, they can add limits to their child's account to promote healthy spending habits, and can keep track of their child's nutritional intake. The on-boarding process is simple: parents download an app, pair their child's wristband, and recharge their account using cash at the school or using their credit card in-app. The platform does not require a credit card nor a bank account, nor does it require any complex sign-up procedures; all you need to get started is a valid phone number, a Spare Digital ID, and a quick visit to the app store.
