Hello Washington!
RallyOrder is Washington DECA’s School-Based Enterprise Partner for the 2026-27 school year. This page is home base for Washington stores: the hardware offer, what the platform does, and the State CDC in February.
The partnership
For us, Washington is personal. RallyOrder’s thinking was shaped in Washington DECA’s SBE community: judging at the state conference, conversations with advisors who’ve kept student stores running for decades, and early product feedback sessions with the Washington DECA leadership team. For the 2026-27 school year, Washington DECA has named RallyOrder its School-Based Enterprise Partner.
The short version of what that means: we build the point-of-sale, store-management, and education platform for high school student-run stores, and Washington runs one of the strongest SBE communities in the country. The full story is in the announcement.
The Washington offer
Free hardware for every Washington DECA store that signs up for the 2026-27 school year. That’s the whole offer: sign up, and the kit your store runs on is on us. The register students operate, the receipt printer, and the card reader, purpose-built for a school counter.
Questions about an unusual setup, multiple locations, or a store that’s still an empty closet? Send us a note at hello@rallyorder.com.
What your store gets
Ring it up
Students take cash and card at the register and work a real line at a real lunch rush. Roles, permissions, and drawer counts are part of the platform, so the store runs like the business it is.
Living classroom
Store data comes to life in your classroom. Sales, margin, and inventory become curriculum, pulled from your own store instead of a textbook case study.
Go for glass
Spend all year getting competition ready. The metrics students compete on at DECA run live in their own store, so District, State, and ICDC prep starts at the counter.
Circle the State CDC
Washington DECA’s State Career Development Conference runs February 25-27, 2027, at the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue. Judging at the state conference is part of RallyOrder’s origin story, so SCDC weekend is circled on our calendar too.
What the partnership brings across the year, conference season included, will land on this page as it firms up. Bookmark it.
