Within emergency services, time is often a precious commodity so allowing staff to better utilise their break times and spend less time queuing is a real benefit. A key benefit of the GiroVend cashless payment solution is the efficiency and speed of transactions, no counting change or remembering pin numbers simply enter the card and pay for purchases. Staff can sometimes face restrictions when carrying personal belongings, including cash. This restriction on staff can be eased by integrating a GiroVend cashless payment solution with their staff ID / access control card. The card can also operate as an electronic purse, creating a comprehensive single card solution, allowing staff to purchase drinks and snacks without the requirement to carry cash on their person.
In circumstances where contractors or visitors are onsite multiple pricing tariffs can be set up creating separate pricing bands for specific groups identified by their card. This option also allows for subsidies to be added to individual or group card holders either as a points or bonus scheme.
Salary sacrifice can also easily be incorporated as part of a cashless payment scheme, allowing staff to received subsidised meals, creating cost savings for both staff and the association. This can be ideal within busy working environments where regular meals are consumed on site.
It’s not just the card users who benefit from the GiroVend cashless payment solution, catering staff benefit from the simple to use, comprehensive back office management system. Offering a wide range of reporting options enabling staff to track purchasing patterns identifying busy periods and favoured menu choices, reducing waste and creating efficiencies.
