Abstract/Executive Summary
School canteen transactions often use traditional cash payments, which involve manual handling of money and recording of transactions. With technology now commonly used in education, schools are exploring other ways to make payments that are faster, safer, and more reliable. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology offers a faster, more accurate way to handle canteen payments through contactless scanning. The objective of this study was to determine students' satisfaction level with the existing payment system and the new RFID-based one. The researchers found out how RFID influences queuing time in the school canteen and what improvements can be made to increase the efficiency, reliability, and user-friendliness of the system. The study involved selected students and canteen staff as participants, in which the collection of user satisfaction data was done using online surveys and interviews. Compared to traditional cash payments, the RFID-based payment system offered a quicker, more accurate, and more effective option. Based on the results of the study, the RFID-based system was shown to be easy to use, quick and accurate in processing payments, along with a pleasing software user interface. While improvements were suggested such as the addition of a pin code, the system received an increased satisfaction level across most users overall.
