This shift has significantly reduced card processing charges and we believe has enhanced the payment experience for our students, especially when paying using a mobile or tablet. Since launching KxPayments, the number of our residents paying by open banking has continued to increase month on month, reflecting the growing preference for this payment type. We’re thrilled with the results and the positive impact on both our operations and our students’ satisfaction”
