ITC Systems installs convenience at Canadian college

Tuesday, June 9, 2009

Toronto’s Humber College has moved closer to a campus-wide one card solution with the installation of 10-card based vending machine controllers on its Coke machines. ITC Systems, a Toronto developer of cash card management systems for universities, handled the implementation, which represents a new income stream for the college.


Humber College has been using ITC’s Multiplan meal plan solution for nearly 10 years for its food service and with the addition of the controllers in the vending machines will give cardholders more flexibility in using their meal card.

ITC Systems designs, develops and implements cash card management systems on university campuses and in public libraries, government departments, food service environments and other closed institutional settings. [end]
