How the Cash Discount Program Works
Throughout Wilmington’s bustling hospitality sector—from the beachfront bars and restaurants along the Riverwalk to the seasonal vendors and entertainment venues that serve millions of annual visitors—card processing fees cut into your margins. Our system automatically applies a small service fee to all card transactions, but when a customer chooses to pay with cash, the service fee is waived, giving them an instant reward for choosing cash. This approach is especially valuable in Wilmington’s tourism-driven economy, where beach-goers, film production crews, and hospitality workers often prefer handling cash for tips and quick transactions—and you keep the full sale amount without paying out of pocket for card fees.
