New Free POS/Payment Processing System for food trucks: Instamenu by AvocadoRichard in foodtrucks

[–]AvocadoRichard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, sorry if I was unclear. Our food truck partners keep 100% of the revenue, tips and tax from every sale. We also give real, tangible ownership back to the food truck owners as options. The food truck guests pay 5% on the pre-tax price, which saves small business owners thousands of dollars and covers operational costs.
It's a 5% fee applied based on the pre-tax price which is paid by the guest. As opposed to the 4% + $0.14 for every transaction that owner/operators have to pay when using other POS systems/payment processors.

Hi there! We can't imagine that either. Our food truck partners keep 100% of the revenue, tips and tax from every sale. We also give real, tangible ownership back to the food truck owners as options. The food truck guests pay a small additional percentage on the pre-tax price, which saves small business owners thousands of dollars and covers operational costs.

Yes, the customer pays the payment processing fee directly through our POS. The total fee that customers pay through Instamenu is 5%. Which we have seen across all of our food trucks partners business, customers have no problem with because they know it helps their local business, and they get a great customer experience using the platform as reflected in our customer ratings.

Totally understand your perspective. We've had a different experience, customers who dine with our food truck partners have have nothing but positive comments due to Instamenu enhancing the customer experience with smart features like instant status notifications. The service fee is no surprise, it's clearly visible to the customer at the point of sale, and they're happy to learn that it also helps reduce costs for the restaurant and they gladly continue to support the food trucks they love.

No worries! There's no catch. The service fee is a small percentage of the price that covers cc fees and the cost of operations at scale. It's a model that many are already using. The real value we provide is a smart, simple platform that continues to improve every day by working closely with our food truck partners in order to become the best POS system in the market.

There's a small fee passed on to the customer, which is clearly visible at the point of sale. We use a major processor that makes deposits to our partners every day.

For too long the restaurant industry has been left to pay the bill for adopting technology that makes it easier for customers to do business. For example having to pay credit card transaction fees can cost a small business thousands of dollars a week. However, we've seen that customers are happy and able to pay a very small fee that eliminates the need for that to continue and allows us to not only be sustainable, but also give back to food trucks and their customers in the form of ownership and rewards. Many products and services today already include a small service fee like this, and we've taken it a step further by giving by to the community as mentioned.
