Improving education business and finance operations through innovation
For more than 28 years, we’ve experienced first-hand the challenges schools must contend with to proficiently manage their finances. Using software and innovation, we’re removing those obstacles.
Our Vision
We aspire to become the country’s foremost provider of thought-leading advice, easy-to-use tools, and affordable point of sale solutions that give schools the freedom to be more creative and enterprising.
Committed to building something better
Like many school professionals, we grew frustrated with the expensive, overcomplicated platforms delivered by complacent companies who lacked the incentive to address the evolving needs of their users.
Driven by that need, we set out to build a platform that has best practice at its core.
Staying true to our values
Our values are an important part of the Pebble story. They make us who we are, and govern everything we do.
