Pay & Connect

Pay & Connect is a campus payments extension for the University of Cape Town (UCT) that issues and uses food vouchers across campus. It supports three user roles—students, scanners, and merchants—and enables scanning QR codes to access meals, voucher issuance, and voucher redemption on campus.

Key features include digital wallets, voucher management (request, cancel, spend), and secure verification. Registration requires a UCT student number or email, and accounts are activated by UCT staff. Merchants can withdraw voucher funds to bank accounts.
