KEV School Finance Platform · Wilmington, North Carolina, United States · founded 1996
What it is
KEV School Finance Platform is a cloud-based web service that brings school payments, accounting, and reporting together for K–12 districts. Schools can manage fees, fines, and fundraising across multiple schools, while finance teams get standardized charts of accounts, district-managed vendor lists, disbursement controls, purchase order tracking, and guided reconciliation. It brings cash, checks, cards, and digital-wallet payments together, with transactions tied to students and ledger codes and collection and deposit steps time-stamped. SIS connections sync enrollment and roster data to help keep fee assignments and balances current; listed ERP connections include PowerSchool, Munis, Oracle, Skyward, and Sparkrock. KEV also lists more than 50 prebuilt reports, including tools for state reporting such as GASB and 1099s. Parents can manage fees for multiple students, receive reminders, and handle payments, signatures, and forms in one checkout. Implementation includes configuration, integrations, workflow and permission setup, and role-based training. Pricing is available on request, and prospective customers can request a personalized demo.
