EMV for Restaurant Merchants
With the new Chip & PIN requirements the entire process in a full service restaurant must change. "Paying at the Table" or at check out is required, a seamless process for both waiters and customers alike. With Chip and Signature card the waiter won't use the integrated swipe on the POS workstation any more. Instead the waiter will dip or the customer can tap the card into the EMV device. At the heart of the interaction, the user experience remains largely unchanged from what takes place today. Note that EMV transactions can’t be adjusted for tips after the sale; tips must be entered during the sale.
