Small Hospital Cafeteria Pos comes with many financial pain points and challenges that were once difficult to combat in the past. As a result, companies spend much more time and resources on improving systems to enhance physical and digital operations. In today’s landscape, there are many software and applications that businesses can incorporate based on the size of their location, the number of customers/employees they serve, and other important data metrics. Below will detail some of the most beneficial business technology that is assimilated into many models and operations globally.
Some of the most pressing and cutting-edge solutions that current small hospital cafeteria POS takes advantage of include:
- Employee Payroll Deductions
- Self-Service Kiosks
- Online Ordering Software
Employee Payroll Deductions
One of the most used and requested features of current POS software is employee payroll deductions. Payroll deductions allow employees to use their employee ID badges to make payments from a location’s cafeteria, gift shop, retail store, or online store, with funds deducted from their salaries. Incorporating payroll deduction technology has shown to increase locations’ revenue by upwards of 25%, and allow convenient payment options for employees on-the-job. This saves vast amounts of time for employees to complete their payment for items from the cafeteria, and in turn, increases participation among employees.
ARBA’s payroll deduction technology, ArbaRapidPay, is a well-known and leading option for many small hospital operations and is integrated with your locations’ POS register sales for ease of documenting and tracking both register and payroll deduction purchases. Manage all sales from a single back-office manager, and view comprehensive data reporting and insights from your point(s) of sale using a single database. Split payments are available for employees, and ARBA’s payroll deduction technology can cater to both on-prem POS and cloud POS users alike.
In sum, employee payroll deductions allow:
- Comprehensive Data Reporting
- Integrated POS and Payroll Deduction Sales
- Increased Participation
- Increased Revenue
Self-Service Kiosks
During the pandemic, many businesses and hospitals made use of contactless POS options to negate the need for face-to-face contact and prevent the further spreading of the COVID-19 virus. The use of self-service kiosks can be seen mostly in many fast-food industry locations and is a staple in ordering options for consumers. The advantage of self-service kiosks is mostly derived from the shortening of line lengths for cafeterias, as well as the safety precautions that come with the lack of face-to-face interactions. By catering to consumers’ and employees’ safety and time preferences, the number of participants that use the self-service kiosk and cafeteria as a whole will increase exponentially.
ARBA’s Self-Service Kiosk software allows employees to use both their credit/debit cards and payroll deductions to complete their purchases. Integrated with your POS register sales, receive compiled and comprehensive reporting from both your POS register and self-service kiosk sales, which is also integrated with credit/debit card and payroll deduction purchases. The same back-office manager can be used to select images, item modifiers, and pricing details for your self-service kiosk menus. ARBA incorporates auto-rotating menus for self-service kiosks as well and can cater up to 4 rotating menus that automatically switch items at different times throughout the day. Cash registers can also be converted to self-service kiosks if staff are unavailable, eliminating the need for full-time staff and allowing longer operating times. Achieve a fully-rounded contactless experience for your employees by making use of contactless solutions such as self-service kiosks.
Online Ordering Software
The use of online ordering software can also greatly improve participation from both employees and customers. Being that the use of payroll deductions, gift cards, or credit/debit cards is available, online ordering software should be able to handle almost any tender type to appeal to both employees and patients/guests. As with many online ordering software, the power to schedule orders for later times, pick up orders and view transactional history all incentivize customers to make use of the software when need be.
ARBA’s online ordering software allows guests to view all transactional history for previously placed orders, as well as make use of their payroll deduction profile to make purchases using their available balances. Also being integrated with your POS register sales, data reporting for online ordering sales is feasible and integrated with your other point(s) of sale. Customers can also make use of item modifiers for specific ordering preparation, being perfectly available for those with food allergies or dietary restrictions. Online ordering software and self-service kiosks are often paired with kitchen display systems to easily show orders that are prepared, in preparation, or late. ARBA’s online ordering can be held on a public or private URL, and also offers loyalty programs and rewards for your regular customers.
Incorporating the above-mentioned features in your small hospital cafeteria POS increases revenue and operational efficiency, and still holds true. Catering to certain aspects of employees’ and customers’ daily routines can greatly improve participation from both respective parties, and allows more ordering/payment options for a customized and contactless ordering experience.
