Restaurants Are Encouraging Cashless Pay for Customer Safety

Ever since the global pandemic, we have completely changed the way we used to do things before, from dining out in a restaurant to receiving a home delivery, which is without getting in physical touch with the delivery person. The main reason behind this change is undoubtedly our health concern. This is the time when advanced payments solutions like ‘Self Pay’ by TechRyde could turn out to be a game changer. It enables payment from the guest's phone, where different tables would have their personal payment options enabled along with split and merge table options.

 

Restaurants around the world as a gesture of care for their customers are encouraging digital payment apps for the safety of not only their customers but for their staff as well. This could be phrased as the end of the times of personal touch, which is now given without getting in touch with the customer. Should restaurants be cashless or not has always been a topic of heated discussion for quite long, however, with things completely changed, all restaurants are encouraging the cashless payment for their customers which should not be something surprising. Where on the other hand, small scale restaurants or Food Trucks are still struggling to go completely cashless as many find the POS (Point of Scale) system complicated and out of their affordability. Delivery aggregators like Zomato and Swiggy are keeping them in business amid the pandemic.

 

W.H.O (World Health Organization) advised the public to make cashless payments as much as possible, in order to prevent the virus-spread. Where restaurants worldwide are contributing to this since, they were hit the hardest during the Coronavirus outbreak. Looking into the estimates from the National Restaurant Organization, approximately 30,000 restaurants in the US had permanently shut down, 110,000 more anticipated closing their doors by April. We cannot disagree from the fact that digital ordering processes shall be vital to the survival of restaurants during and after the pandemic.

 

In the big picture, restaurants have begun their battle against the Covid-19 by not only encouraging the people to use digital payment apps, but also by service to the society by giving away millions of meals worldwide to the poor. Through their social media campaign, restaurants are trying their best to win the trust of their customers by assuring them a safe and contact-less experience. TechRyde solutions is determined to provide them with advanced contact-less experiences where there are zero percent chances to get in physical contact with the server.
