Eliminate manual roll calls, prevent truancy, and access complete class attendance analytics.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the WhatsApp notification work for parents?
The system interfaces directly with the official WhatsApp Business Cloud API. The exact second a student's card is detected at the gate or bus reader, a personalized message (e.g., 'Dear Parent, Aarav Sharma has safely arrived at Greenfield Public School at 08:12 AM') is delivered to the parent's WhatsApp number.
Is the 100-student plan genuinely free forever?
Yes. At rfidschools.com, small schools, rural academies, and coaching institutes with up to 100 students can use the cloud software completely free with zero recurring software subscription fees.
Can the system work with long-range walk-through gates where students don't need to tap?
Yes. When equipped with long-range walk-through gate antennas and student ID lanyard cards, the system reads badges from 2 to 3 meters away as students walk through the gate in groups.
What happens if a student forgets their RFID card at home?
Class teachers or security guards can open the mobile app or web portal and execute a 1-click Manual Attendance Override, marking the student present without penalizing them.
Does the system track school bus boarding and deboarding?
Yes. A compact 4G GPS reader installed on the school bus reads student cards as they step onto the bus, logging the exact GPS satellite coordinates and time of boarding and deboarding.
