What products and services do you provide specifically to campus card operations?
For the NACCU community, Kanpla provides a best in class tech stack built for the modern age and designed to integrate easily with ERP, menu, and closed loop payment systems. As a PCI Level 1 compliant service provider with a strong focus on security, service, and support, campus card professionals and dining staff will find Kanpla’s platform both innovative and secure.
Is there a new product or service you want to tell us about?
Beyond offering industry leading catering and foodservice technology, our mission is to transform kitchen data into clear, actionable insights that support smarter decisions about menu planning, production levels, and customer experience. Our newest capabilities leverage AI to help predict demand, optimize menus, manage marketing, and support allergen compliance. By simplifying administration and creating new opportunities for innovation, Kanpla helps ensure the best possible experience for both students and staff.
