What Rollcallz is
Rollcallz brings scheduling, attendance, staff time tracking, payroll reporting, and parent communication into one platform for after-school and enrichment centers. It runs on Android, iOS, web, and Windows. Staff can scan unique QR codes to record student and staff check-ins and check-outs, including in-person and Zoom attendance. Parents can receive arrival and departure alerts, communicate with instructors, and coordinate pickups among caregivers. Scheduling includes timeslot capacity management, parent self-scheduling, tardy alerts, and views across multiple centers. Staff hours can be tracked for payroll reporting, while parents can authorize guardians for pickup and use QR checkout, creating pickup records. Reports cover attendance, absences, staff hours, capacity, financial performance, and parent engagement. Rollcallz Payments is an integrated tuition collection service powered by Stripe. Its free Guardian app provides attendance notifications and caregiver coordination. Pricing is available on request; the Google Play listing says schools with fewer than 50 students can use Rollcallz for free. Organizations with 500 or more users should contact sales for custom enterprise pricing.
