πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­ A real kitchen, not a vending machine

Healthy meals your kids will actually finish.

Sunbites is a school canteen that swaps chips and instant noodles for rice meals, fresh fruit, and real veggies β€” cooked fresh every morning, served by people who know your kid's name.

The truth about school canteens

What's actually in your kid's canteen right now?

We pulled the receipts. A study of three school canteens (DLSAU, Philippines) counted what kids were buying. The results aren't great.

of food sold at school canteens is unhealthy.

  • Chocolates

The Sunbites swap

We replace the snack rack with a real kitchen.

Same hour. Same canteen. Same peso. We just changed what gets handed across the counter β€” and the difference shows up at the dinner table.

Before
The typical school canteen
  • βœ•Chips, chocolates, instant noodles
  • βœ•Soft drinks and sugary juices
  • βœ•Recess sugar crash by 11am
  • βœ•Kids skip lunch, fill up on candy
  • βœ•Parents have no idea what they ate
After Sunbites
A real kitchen on campus
  • Rice meals, ulam, vegetables, fresh fruit
  • Bottled water and natural drinks
  • Steady energy through afternoon class
  • Trays come back empty β€” naubos po!
  • Daily photo update of your kid's lunch
How it works

Three steps. Zero drama.

01

A school partners with Sunbites

We meet your admin and parents, plan a 4-week rotating menu, and set up the counter β€” the way we did at our Antipolo and Iloilo integrated-school branches.

02

We cook fresh, every single morning

Rice, ulam, vegetables, fresh fruit, bottled water. Real cooking, in a real kitchen. No reheated factory food.

03

Kids eat β€” and finish β€” their lunch

Tray-served, kid-portioned, kid-priced. Parents get a daily Messenger update with a photo of their kid's tray.

The Sunbites platform

Real food, backed by real tools.

Two apps and a QR-based wallet system, all working together. One for parents to stay in the loop, one for the canteen counter β€” and a printable QR in every kid's pocket so lunch is one scan away.

πŸͺͺ For your kid β€” Wallet

How the Sunbites Wallet works.

Every enrolled student gets a printed QR card linked to a digital wallet. You load money in, your kid uses the card at the counter, and the system handles the rest.

1

Enroll, get a card

On enrollment, your kid is assigned a unique QR code (SB-XXXXXXXXXXXX) and a digital wallet is created. We print the card.

2

Top up the wallet

Add money any time, any amount β€” Cash, GCash, or Bank Transfer. The new balance shows up immediately.

3

Kid scans at counter

They show the card; the cashier scans it. The system finds your kid, shows balance, and adds items to the cart.

4

System deducts

β‚±135 (or item price) deducted from the wallet. Receipt shows new balance. All in 5 seconds.

5

You see it in the portal

Every transaction shows up in your portal β€” date, time, items, amount, balance after.

Built-in safety nets
β‚±300 emergency credit
If your kid runs out of wallet balance, Sunbites can extend up to β‚±300 in canteen credit so they still eat lunch. You settle it on the next top-up.
Low-balance email alert
Set a threshold (e.g. β‚±100) and you get an email the moment the wallet drops below it. No more "I had no money for lunch" texts.
Inline reload at the counter
If your kid is at the counter with not enough balance, the cashier can take cash on the spot, top up the wallet for the exact shortfall.
Lost-QR replacement
Lost or damaged card? The branch admin regenerates a new QR in minutes β€” the old one is instantly invalidated. Wallet balance carries over.
⭐
1 loyalty point per β‚±1,000 spent.
Points are tracked automatically and shown in the portal. Redemption rules vary by branch.
🍽️ For the canteen β€” POS

What happens at the counter.

Sunbites POS is the cashier app. Here's what your kid (and the cashier) actually do during recess, step by step.

1

Cashier picks the items

They tap meal trays, drinks, snacks, or extras on the POS β€” items are categorized for fast finding.

2

Scan the QR card

USB scanner reads your kid's QR. The system loads their name, photo, wallet balance instantly.

3

Pick payment

Cash, GCash, or Student Wallet β€” cashier picks. Wallet shows live balance and what's left after this order.

4

Receipt + handover

System creates the order, deducts from wallet, prints a receipt, and shows points earned. Done.

What payments are accepted
πŸ’΅
Cash
Pay tendered amount; change calculated and given. Standard for walk-ins.
GCash
GCash

What you and your kid actually get

Why this beats cash in a coin purse.

The system isn't tech for tech's sake. Every piece exists to solve a real problem that real parents and real kids run into.

For your kid

No more lost money, no more "I forgot."

  • βœ“Nothing to lose: card replaces a wad of coins they'd lose anyway
  • βœ“No "may baon ka ba?" β€” the wallet is loaded, they just scan
  • βœ“Earn loyalty points for every meal β€” a small reward
  • βœ“Healthy meals every day, planned by a nutritionist
  • βœ“Allergies and halal needs are flagged on enrollment
  • βœ“No queue stress β€” scan, take tray, sit down
For you, parent

See everything. Worry about nothing.

  • βœ“See every peso your kid spent β€” itemized, by the minute
  • βœ“Know what they ate today β€” and what's coming tomorrow
  • βœ“Top up the wallet from your phone, anytime
  • βœ“Get an email alert before the wallet hits zero
  • βœ“Subscriber? One predictable bill 10 months a year
  • βœ“Send feedback to Ms. Nej directly β€” she actually reads it
From real parents, no edits

The thing we read every night before closing the kitchen.

These are unedited Messenger threads from Sunbites parents. We kept the Taglish, the typos, and the hearts β€” because that's what trust sounds like.
