Speed and Convenience

In business, time is money. And time saved is money saved! A 2020 study by Mastercard found that contactless payments are up to 10 times faster than other in-person payment methods. Contactless payments help your business accept payments from customers quicker. 

Enhanced Customer Experience

No one likes waiting around, including your customers. Fast payments mean your staff can process more customers quicker, freeing staff time to do other things, such as processing customer orders. A quicker experience, made possible by contactless payments, can lead to a positive customer experience.

Reduction in Cash Handling

There are a number of costs associated with cash handling. These include:

  • Time taken to count and account for cash at the end of the day.

  • Expenses related to storage, security and transportation of cash.

  • Security risks associated with having cash on premises. 

Accepting contactless payments can help reduce some of these risks.
