How the Cash Discount Program Works in San Diego's Tourism and Hospitality Market
Rather than absorbing rising transaction costs or raising menu prices in San Diego’s competitive hospitality and retail landscape, our system automatically applies a small service fee to all card transactions. When a customer chooses to pay with cash, the service fee is waived, rewarding them with a discount. You keep the full sale amount—no more paying out of pocket for card fees. This program has proven especially effective for San Diego’s cash-heavy businesses: craft breweries in North Park, barber shops and tattoo parlors throughout Pacific Beach and Ocean Beach, cannabis dispensaries across the county, and hospitality venues in the Gaslamp Quarter where tourists and locals alike appreciate transparent pricing.
✔ 100% compliant with Visa, Mastercard, and processor guidelines
✔ Automated fee adjustments built into your POS or terminal
✔ Transparent signage and receipt language included
✔ Compatible with countertop, wireless, and tablet POS systems
