Common questions

Everything you need to know before applying.

No β€” the parent app is completely free to download and use. The school pays one flat monthly subscription that covers all parents, all students, and unlimited pickup events.
Yes β€” the SafePass Billing module lets your school generate invoices, collect fees via EFT, and automatically match incoming bank payments to students. Parents receive monthly statements via the app and email. Billing is available as an add-on for R299/month on any SafePass Schools plan.
Yes β€” the optional smart gate integration add-on lets authorised parents open your school gate directly from the SafePass app when they arrive at school. A small device connects to your existing gate motor β€” no new motor needed. Every open is logged with the parent's name, time, and location. Gate health is monitored automatically, so you receive a proactive alert if a gate goes offline β€” before anyone is standing at a closed gate. Available as an add-on at R299/month per gate.
Your bursar uploads your monthly bank statement CSV from any SA bank (FNB, Nedbank, ABSA, Standard Bank, Capitec). SafePass automatically matches each payment to the correct student using their unique billing reference number. Unmatched payments are flagged for manual review β€” no manual reconciliation needed for clean payments.
SafePass runs on iOS 13+ (iPhone 6s and newer) and Android 8.0+. The app is available on the App Store and Google Play. The admin portal and gate tablet run in any modern browser β€” no app required.
No problem. The admin portal can print a personalised QR card for any parent. Alternatively, every parent gets a unique 6-digit gate code that the guard can verify on the gate tablet without a phone.
Yes. All data is stored on servers in South Africa. The pickup event log is append-only and retained for 24 months as required. Visitor logs are auto-deleted after 30 days. No unnecessary personal data is collected, and parents can request data removal at any time.
Most schools are live within one business day. You upload your student roster as a CSV, we configure your gates, and parents can register immediately. Scale and Growth plans include a dedicated onboarding session to walk your admin team through everything.
Just a tablet at each gate β€” any Android tablet or iPad works. The gate tablet app runs in the browser, so there's nothing to install or update. A wall mount and a mobile data SIM for the tablet is all you need to get started.
SafePass includes an offline mode with cached parent and student data so the gate tablet continues to function. Guards can also use the 6-digit PIN fallback which works without connectivity. We recommend a mobile data SIM in the gate tablet as a backup to your school Wi-Fi.
Yes. The Starter plan supports up to 2 gates, Growth supports up to 5 gates, and Scale supports unlimited gates. All gate activity appears in the same admin portal live dashboard in real time, regardless of how many entry points your school has.
