Card fees are eating a line cook's salary.

A restaurant doing $60K a month in card sales hands roughly $21K a year to processing at typical rates. That's most of a part-time salary, gone to fees. Our restaurant clients keep it instead.

What restaurants are up against

Fees on every check

3% of every card check, every day, forever. On thin restaurant margins that is often the gap between a good month and a flat one.

Tips complicate everything

Tip edits, pooling and payouts all have to clear the right way. Most setups quietly get it wrong.

Marketplace commissions

Delivery apps take 15-30% on top of your card fees. Your own online ordering wins that back.

The program fit

The systems we'd quote

From a client like you
They went above and beyond... spent several days working with us and was even able to get our funds expedited. Oh, and then there's the fact that they are saving us thousands of dollars a year!

Fair questions

Will guests react badly to dual pricing?

Both prices are on the menu before anyone orders. No surprise at the register. With our restaurant clients, the questions fade in the first week.

How do tips work with dual pricing?

Normally. Tips ride the sale at the price the guest chose. Tip edits work the way your staff already knows.

Can you replace what delivery apps charge me?

We can't make DoorDash cheaper. But your POS can take orders straight from your own site, with no commission. Most restaurants move a good chunk of orders to it.

What does switching cost during service?

Nothing. We do the switch on a slow afternoon. Menu, modifiers and gift balances all come across. Staff get a walkthrough before the dinner rush.

Which POS should my restaurant pick?

Bar-heavy rooms lean Paradise or HotSauce. Shops that sell lots of ways lean KwickPOS or Clover. A five-minute chat sorts it.

What's the real saving for a restaurant my size?

Send one statement. At $60K a month in cards, dual pricing typically returns somewhere near $20K a year, and you'll see your exact number in writing.
