Inspiration
• The main hurdle in digital payment is the availability of credit card/ debit card. Students due to lack of payment options have to revert to cash payments. • Most of the time students face the lack of cash as their major problem during any transaction. Our product, StuPay focuses majorly on this problem.
What it does
• The flow of control of the StuPay will be as follows:
- Registration will be done on the basis of roll numbers
- Students will deposit cash to the super-admin
- The money will be credited in the wallets of the students
- This money will be used in the various transactions like photostat shops, canteens etc.
- The withdrawal money will be deducted from senders account and credited to the receivers
- If the money reaches a minimum low then a notification is send to the account holder and urges him to recharge
