How the Cash Discount Program Works
In a city like Scranton where healthcare workers, university students, and service industry employees generate constant cash flow through downtown corridors, campus areas, and neighborhood establishments, our cash discount program offers a smarter alternative to blanket price increases. Our system automatically applies a small service fee to all card transactions, and when a customer chooses to pay with cash—whether they’re visiting Steamtown, grabbing lunch near The University of Scranton, or enjoying an evening in a downtown bar—the service fee is waived, rewarding them instantly with a discount. You keep the full sale amount without absorbing card processing costs that erode your margins.
This approach particularly resonates in Scranton’s mixed economy of retail, food service, and hospitality venues, where cash transactions remain deeply embedded in neighborhood business culture across Green Ridge, the South Side, and downtown.
✔ 100% compliant with Visa, Mastercard, and processor guidelines
✔ Automated fee adjustments built into your POS or terminal
