A growing number of restaurants are opting to go cashless as more people choose to pay with debit or credit cards. This payment approach can dramatically improve efficiency as it removes having to perform time-consuming tasks such as counting cash at the end of the day. It also expedites the check out process, cutting down on wait times and reducing the odds of disgruntled customers.
Going cashless can potentially encourage clients to spend more. Cash has limits. If customers wish to purchase something that costs $10 but they have about $15 in cash, they may decide to refrain from buying the item. These limits are removed by using plastic, encouraging customers to spend more than they otherwise would.
Millennials and Generation Z are increasingly forgoing cash in favor of modern payment methods like the popular Venmo that allows bills to be easily split, Google Pay for Android phones, or Apple Pay. These payment methods are secure and can open you up to a broader target audience. Modern POS systems can accept these payment methods without issue.
