Genius drives commerce and simplifies back-end processes, centralizing transaction visibility campus wide while maximizing revenue streams, minimizing staff time, and streamlining compliance.
Genius fills a gap for many education institutions that lack simple and centralized commerce enablement solutions, including payment processing and reconciliation. Many universities do not have the appropriate digital payment infrastructure to move away from cash and checks, resulting in a lack of financial oversight and increased risk.

For campus retail environments, features include all the built-in tools institutions need to make smarter decisions and grow commerce. Select highlights include:
- Inventory management options to reduce dead stock and overbuying/underbuying with built-in tools that power efficiency and inform smarter decisions.
- Easy-to-use technology, including a handheld device, with user-friendly workflows that eliminates the need to waste time managing complicated technology and training staff.
- Advanced payment capabilities that help institutions accept cards, mobile wallets, and gift cards, both in store and on the go.
Restaurant and Food Service Management Applications
For campus-wide dining, Genius brings ease and order to the complexity of food service management with features that include:
- Kiosk, mobile, and online ordering – supported by digital menus – that reduce wait times, eliminate ordering anxiety and deliver an exceptional experience to keep students coming back.
- Back-end sophistication that supports meal plan rules and enables data-driven decisions to cut waste, shrink labor costs, and improve margins.
- Centralized platform that enables order management and control across digital menus while ensuring compliance and reducing risk.
