I cannot get my money out

They have $99 in my account. My school switched vendors. Now the website is not working and this app has no message option for help. Kiss you money goodbye I have no way to get my money out.

How Can an App be This Bad on 2026?!

If I could give 0 stars, I would. This app is doing nothing but taking up storage. None of the features work, adding money to an account is impossible, the web version just keeps spinning and never takes you anywhere. I don’t even know what to review because it just doesn’t work. I can’t believe our school district uses such an awful program. They should have never switched from Paycor.

Update

I tried to log into the payschool central app and it has a banner that says require update hit that it takes me to the Apple Store which doesn’t have an update option just ‘open’ and it’s a loop and can’t actually log into the app.

SAYS UPDATE NOW

Says I have to update now and when I click ok it takes me to the App Store. But guess what app is up to date. Now I can’t use the app to check my balance before school starts.

Won’t update

When I try to sign in it tells me mandatory update. I click update and it just goes to the app and says start. I click start and it takes me right back to mandatory update.
I can Google PaySchools Central and sign in with no issue, just can’t on the app.
