Cut Your Third Highest
Restaurant Expense
Every time a customer uses a credit or debit card, you lose roughly 3-4% on the transaction. And if a credit card has a loyalty program, the fee can be as high as 8%. For most restaurants, this cost amounts to their third-highest annual expense.
We know every dollar matters to your business. So we created a way for you to cut this expense from your bottom line. It’s through Lavu’s Cash Discount Program (CDP).
What’s a Cash Discount Program?
How Does It Work?
Lavu’s Cash Discount Program rewards customers for paying in cash and helps restaurants offset up to 99% of their credit card processing fees.
When a customer is ready to pay with a credit or debit card, their bill includes a non-cash adjustment.
The customer can choose to avoid the charge by paying with cash. The entire transaction is fully transparent.
If the customer pays in cash, they save. If the customer pays with a card, they pay a fee which covers up to 99% of your processing fees.
The CDP is a win-win for customers and your business. You both get an opportunity to save.

Generate Savings For Your Customers & Your Restaurant
Most customers know credit card processing fees are high, and they aren’t surprised or turned off by non-cash adjustment fees.
Surveys have shown that 99.2% of customers don’t mind paying the fee, and they like supporting local businesses.
Plus, by presenting a cash discount, customers have a chance to save — instead of paying the cost passed through as higher menu prices.
Consider how much you can save in just one year.
