My Payments Plus
Students who qualify for reduced-price or paid meals will need to provide cash, check, or have money on their student MyPaymentsPlus account for payment. When you create your free account at MyPaymentsPlus you will have the option to put money on your student’s Meal Account or General Account. Money on the Meal Account can only be used to purchase meals. Money on the General Account can be used to purchase meals and a la carte items (drinks, snacks, extra entrees). The MyPaymentsPlus account is linked directly to your school’s student information system and provides real-time balances and invoices.
