School Meal Payments

Register for online school payments

To use the online payment service you need to register with mygovscot myaccount.

This is a simple and secure sign-in service for accessing online public services in Scotland. It provides people with the ability to set up an online account and use it - using a single user name and password to access a growing range of online public services.

If you already have a mygovscot myaccount

You will have this if you have signed in for other council services, for example, housing repairs. Select the Sign-in logo and log in with your mygovscot myaccount details.

If you don't have a mygovscot myaccount

Setting up an online account involves a simple registration process - to do this select the Register logo. 

Once you've registered by providing a minimal amount of information, including about you and where you live, you'll be sent an email -  click on the link in the email to activate your account.

Signing in to mygovscot myaccount

The first time you sign in you will be asked to accept the terms and conditions for the account. Scroll to the bottom of the page and tick that you have accepted these. You will then be asked to opt-in or out of data sharing. Please select as appropriate.

Once you have registered, you will then need to use your unique account reference number/s for your child/children to access their school meal account. If you do not have this number, contact your school or email onlineschoolpayments@northlan.gov.uk

For information: mygovscot myaccount is the easy way to access public services online and is delivered by the Improvement Service, the go-to organisation for local government improvement in Scotland. The platform provides access to a range of public services, including getyournec.scot for National Entitlement Card applications, which uses mygovscot myaccount authentication and identity verification services.
