Aldelo Merchants Avoid Fees ​through PCI-DSS Compliance

​Notice: The PCI Security Standards Council
will Officially Close the PA-DSS Program this October

3-minute read ---
​

​This October 28, 2022, the PCI Security Standards Council will officially close the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS) program. For restaurant owners and credit card merchants, this means finalizing the transition from the PA-DSS program to its successor, the PCI Secure Software Standard. This will enable restaurant owners to continue adhering to PCI Security Standards Council standards in everyday business transactions.

Established by five major credit card companies, the Purchase Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) are a set of regulations for all businesses that accept credit cards and continue to be modified as payment processing and data systems evolve. While not legally enforced, adherence to PCI DSS standards is extremely widespread and can result in multiple financial penalties, up to and including denial of credit card processing for merchants who do not comply.

​Food Trucks Drive Sales with Aldelo Express
Merchant- and Customer-Facing POS Solutions Scale with the Business

​

Unlike brick-and-mortar stores that are limited to a certain vicinity and customer market, food trucks have the freedom to roam local communities and garner a loyal customer following. While some food trucks may focus solely on one or a few communities, other businesses meet customers at events and gatherings miles away, and others do a bit of both to solidify their brand’s success and establish relationships with seasonal customers.

But a food truck’s mobility also brings great operational and technological challenges, especially when business owners want to provide customer-facing ordering, payment, gift card, or loyalty program solutions to grow their business and reward customers for their loyalty.

Top 5 Reasons Your Food​ Truck Needs Aldelo Express

Top 5 Reasons Your Food ​Truck Needs Aldelo Express​

​

The best thing about food trucks is their mobility. Many food trucks are a brand in and of themselves, and like their favorite music groups, customers will follow food trucks from one location to the next. Some restaurants are closing brick-and-mortar spaces and moving solely to food trucks for promoting and selling their food and drinks. Conversely, other brick-and-mortar restaurants are purchasing food trucks as an extension of their business into local and neighboring communities. Perfect for farmers markets, fairs, parades, fundraisers, and other outdoor events, food trucks contribute to a vibrant and festive atmosphere that customers easily recognize and gravitate towards.

Unlike brick-and-mortar businesses who must market to the masses in order to gain new customers, food truck marketing often means going to where customers are. Some food trucks may focus solely on one community, others follow customers to events and gatherings, and still others do a bit of both to solidify their brand’s success.

Expanding the Restaurant’s Brand and Customer Base

​Restaurants have always been a gathering place for local communities. While a contactless dining market has introduced numerous challenges for both restaurant owners and their customers, restaurants adopting flexible point-of-sale technologies are able to provide communities with creative events and interactive services in contactless, non-traditional settings.

In late 2021, most restaurants offered on-premises outdoor dining in patio, deck, parklet or sidewalk settings. Once pandemic restrictions are lifted, 90% of restaurant owners and 84% of adult consumers would prefer restaurants to continue offering outdoor dining on sidewalks, parking lots, or streets. * In addition to mainstream outdoor dining, curbside pickup, and delivery services, restaurants can use merchant- and customer-facing mobile POS solutions to promote their brand, expand their customer base, and engage customers with car-hop dining experiences.

Restaurants can host their own drive-in events - think of the movie American Graffiti - or partner with local businesses to enhance car-hop dining experiences with light shows, theatrical performances, movie showings, drive-by art shows, and drive-thru farmers markets. Creating a unique and fun atmosphere for the community brings people together while supporting local farmers, artisans, businesses, and community groups helps restaurants become a focal point for existing and new customers.

Aldelo Express Physical Split Check Feature

Aldelo Express Physical Split Check Feature
Makes “Going Dutch” Easier than Ever

4-minute read ---
​Forty percent of customers prefer to split checks when dining with friends. * Some guests pay their own way by alerting the waiter before ordering, while other parties load a group bill onto one card and pay back the cardholder after the meal. For those in groups tasked with itemizing a group’s guest check, the process is time consuming and tedious and there are always items that fall through the cracks. The experience is stressful and defeats the purpose of getting together for a fun and relaxing meal.

From family gatherings to get-togethers with friends, both diners and staff are familiar with the infamous “check war.” It is the battle of wills between family and friends insisting “dinner is on them” or they’ve “got it covered.” It is the race to grab the check as soon as the server arrives with the little black book at the table. Typically, the result is a compromise that results in portioning and separating the final check amount. Whether the debate at the table is tiresome or amusing, at the very least, it is guaranteed to happen at least once on any shift.
​There is relief to these scenarios with Aldelo Express’ new physical split check feature for all order types. Servers can accommodate large groups with ease, splitting checks into two, ten, or any number of physical checks from any in-house or mobile printer. Servers effortlessly adjust checks by number of guests or payments, helping guests relax and keep the good times rolling.
