For UK independent schools

School lunches, clubs and payments — without the paperwork.

Rafyo is one place for parents to book meals, clubs and events — and for your office to stop chasing forms, cash and spreadsheets.

How it works

A school day with Rafyo

From the walk to school to the end of term — here's what disappears from everyone's to-do list.

7:45 am · On the walk to school

The week's lunches, booked before the bell rings.

Parents pick from your actual menu in a couple of taps. Dietary needs and allergies are already on file, so the wrong meal simply can't be booked.

Thursday · Choose a meal

  • Sausage & mash
  • Veggie chilli
  • Jacket potato

Oscar's allergies applied — nut-free options only

12:00 pm · In the kitchen

The kitchen already knows who's eating what.

Exact counts per dish, allergy flags front and centre, nothing scribbled on paper. Cook what's needed — no more, no less.

Kitchen register · Tuesday

6 allergy flags
  • Roast chicken 84
  • Veggie lasagne 41
  • Jacket potato 17

3:30 pm · After school

Clubs run themselves — register included.

Parents book football, chess or choir by the day. Staff take the register on a phone, and every child is accounted for — no clipboards, no chasing.

Football Club · Tuesday

  • Oscar B.
  • Amara O.
  • Freddie H.
  • Poppy W.

End of term · In the office

Nothing to chase. It's already paid.

Every booking is paid for when it's made, and it all lands in one accurate ledger. No envelopes of cash, no reconciliation marathon, no awkward reminder letters.

The platform

One place underneath it all

Parents get one app and one account. Your office gets one system of record — not four subscriptions and a shared spreadsheet.

Meals

Menus, pre-ordering, allergy-aware choices and kitchen registers — for every sitting.

Clubs

Per-day booking, capacity limits and digital registers for everything after the bell.

Events & trips

Consent and payment in one step — from theatre trips to non-uniform days.

Payments

Paid at booking, processed securely by Stripe, reconciled in one ledger for the bursary.

GDPR-first

Built around data minimisation, with a Data Processing Agreement ready for your records.

Secure payments

Card payments are processed by Stripe — card details never touch our servers.

Built in Sussex

A UK company, working side by side with the schools that use Rafyo every day.

Our story

Rafyo began inside a school office

It started with an independent school in Sussex, watching meal and event admin swallow whole mornings — forms to collate, cash to count, spreadsheets to reconcile. We build Rafyo side by side with the people who actually use it: office staff, kitchens and parents.
