"We used to spend 35 minutes getting all children out at the end of the day. With SafePass it takes less than 15 minutes. The gate guard now knows exactly who's coming before they even arrive at the gate."

"When I'm stuck in traffic I used to worry the entire time. Now I get a notification the moment my daughter is collected. Last week I sent a delegate code to my sister in seconds β€” it just worked."

"SafePass stopped a situation we were dreading. A man came to collect a child who wasn't on our approved list. The system flagged it immediately β€” no scene, no argument. It was handled quietly and safely."

Common questions

Everything you need to know before applying.

No β€” the parent app is completely free to download and use. The school pays one flat monthly subscription that covers all parents, all students, and unlimited pickup events.
SafePass runs on iOS 13+ (iPhone 6s and newer) and Android 8.0+. The app is available on the App Store and Google Play. The admin portal and gate tablet run in any modern browser β€” no app required.
No problem. The admin portal can print a personalised QR card for any parent. Alternatively, every parent gets a unique 6-digit gate code that the guard can verify on the gate tablet without a phone.
Yes. All data is stored on servers in South Africa. The pickup event log is append-only and retained for 24 months as required. Visitor logs are auto-deleted after 30 days. No unnecessary personal data is collected, and parents can request data removal at any time.
Most schools are live within one business day. You upload your student roster as a CSV, we configure your gates, and parents can register immediately. Scale and Growth plans include a dedicated onboarding session to walk your admin team through everything.
Just a tablet at each gate β€” any Android tablet or iPad works. The gate tablet app runs in the browser, so there's nothing to install or update. A wall mount and a mobile data SIM for the tablet is all you need to get started.
SafePass includes an offline mode with cached parent and student data so the gate tablet continues to function. Guards can also use the 6-digit PIN fallback which works without connectivity. We recommend a mobile data SIM in the gate tablet as a backup to your school Wi-Fi.
Yes. The Starter plan supports up to 2 gates, Growth supports up to 5 gates, and Scale supports unlimited gates. All gate activity appears in the same admin portal live dashboard in real time, regardless of how many entry points your school has.
