The app is good, but the charges to transfer funds to the Kawu account are extortionately expensive!

Ite a good experience but you need to ensure that Pupils' photos are seen on the machine before approving a payment to prevent unauthorised pupils from using cards that ae not theirs .

This kawu app is too much annoying, since the term began, it has been deducting our kids money from the cards mysteriously. The card had 8,500,so I deposited 11,000 right now and when I checked the balance on my kid's card it shows 15,000.you guys are making this App terrible, Its too annoying. Many kids are complaining about the same thing.
