Cashless catering

Cashless catering means you don't have to bring any money to buy your lunch or snacks, instead, you use a special card or ID badge that has some magical money inside it. When you go to the cafeteria, you show your card or badge to the cashier and they will scan it to see how much money you have in it. You can then choose what food you want to eat and the cashier will deduct the amount of money from your card or badge. This way, you don't have to worry about losing your money or forgetting it at home since everything is stored safely in your card or badge. It's like having a very special wallet that you can use just for buying food at school.
