Ready to Explore What an All-in-One POS Can Do? HungerRush is transforming how growing restaurants manage their chain and franchise operations in a single, integrated platform. DECISION 10 Find out how credit card processing is handled. Payment solutions aren't sexy, but they are consequential. Open source processing solutions are great starting points for small operations, but the lack of support can be detrimental when things go wrong. Proprietary processing solutions offer a higher level of security and reliability, and generally come with dedicated on-demand support. Double-check that you'll be able to accommodate your customers' favorite payment methods, like existing gi cards and NFC (Google and Apple Pay). 11 Validate that the solution uses high-tech security protocols and processes to ensure your critical operations and sensitive customer data are protected. Data breaches are not only a PR nightmare, but a breach of trust with existing customers. We strongly suggest that restaurant chains prioritize technology vendors who offer cutting-edge security that's backed by a full team of engineers, not lower-level, mass-market security protocols. 12 Get references and testimonials from restaurant chains and franchises with similar operations to yours. Read the case studies, then go straight to the source. Connect with operators who can verify that all your research above is accurate and realistic, and who can offer additional insights that are unique to your market or use case. BONUS: Once you select your new tech provider, collaborate on an economic forecast to use for ROI tracking purposes and to measure the KPIs you identified in item #1. Great partners thrive on your success and want to get into the weeds with you. Building out economic models enables both sides of the partnership to align on goals, which ultimately helps your partner serve your business more effectively. In our experience, a forecasting exercise is the best way to start a long-term relationship on the right foot. SEE HOW IT ALL CONNECTS HungerRush© 2021. All Rights Reserved.
