Restaurants Serve Up Instant Payments to Keep Staff and Cash Flow Steady

Money Mobility Tracker® - Tips on Tap: Instant Payments in the Restaurant Industry

For restaurants under pressure, instant pay is proving to be more than convenience; it’s a catalyst for stronger teams and steadier finances. The latest “Money Mobility Tracker®,” a collaboration with Ingo Payments, explores how operators are turning to instant tip payouts and supplier disbursements to safeguard margins and workforce morale.

Inside the September/October Tracker
  • The restaurant industry is facing a multitude of challenges, including a critical labor shortage and heightened customer demand for convenience alongside seamless technology. Instant payments offer direct and indirect solutions to these pressures.
  • Tipping was once dominated by cash, but the rise of digital payments has completely upended the gratuity paradigm.
  • Instant payouts for restaurant worker tipping and wages are just the beginning. Instant supplier payments are reducing administrative burdens, bolstering cash flow and creating healthier balance sheets for the industry.
