How To Get More Tips For Your Servers with Pay-at-Table

We are thrilled to announce that Eat App now has a Pay-At-Table solution via our partner Spades. Pay at the table will revolutionize the way you handle payments.

With the use of pay-at-the-table systems like Spades, restaurants can expect bigger tips.

What is pay-at-table? 

Pay-at-table is a restaurant cheque or bill payment system for dine-in customers. Guests scan a QR code at the table and directly access their itemized bill online. They can then pay the bill, including adding tips or splitting the payment with a credit card, debit card, Apple pay or google pay - directly from their phone.

Why is this the best solution to increase tips?

It's already been shown that using a credit cards or digital payment solution increases average tip size. Pay-at-table is an evolution of this by automatically prompting the guest to leave a tip before paying. When prompted in this way the guest the much more likely to leave a higher tip. Additionally, this technology allows servers to cover more tables, resulting in more table turns and more tips per service.
