Comp Programs

Employee Dining and Meals

Restaurants normally extend complimentary or discounted meals to the owners and restaurant employees.  Administering and correctly accounting for these programs is complex and leaves the program open to abuse. 

Paytronix comp card solutions give you the flexibility to design a program that best fits your requirements.  For example, most employee comp programs specify discount levels that vary across the organization.  Owners and managers typically receive a larger discount than line employees.  Our comp solutions enable you to specify and administer the levels of discount accordingly. 

Some restaurants prefer to construct programs with comp cards loaded with a fixed, maximum value to be consumed during a given period of time.  When the card is used, the amount of the check reduces the balance remaining on the card.  Paytronix allows you to set varying amounts to accommodate different employee levels.

Marketing and Promotions

Comp cards make excellent marketing and promotion tools. With the flexibility to create promotions for any event, comp cards are easy to distribute and easy to redeem. 

Consider a new store opening event. Unique, memorable offers build excitement. Comp cards give you the creative flexibility to attract guests into your restaurant with fun, appealing offers that introduce your best menu items. In addition, a card holding a series of free or discounted menu items will encourage multiple visits and help establish a following of new guests. 

 
Cards are easy promotional items to distribute. For instance, including cards in a welcome package provides great way to introduce your restaurants to new students at the start of the school year.
 
In all, Paytronix comp cards add an exciting flair to make your promotional events a success. Along with the flexible creativity and ease of distribution, POS integration assures a smooth redemption process and accurate accounting.

Guest Goodwill

Comp cards give you a convenient way to extend a special reward to a stellar guest or to compensate for a poor experience. 

As an opportunity arises, a manager can offer the guest a card containing a specific dollar value, a complimentary menu item, or a discount on their next visit.  Whatever form the comp takes, Paytronix will ensure a simple redemption process and accurate accounting for the transaction.

Charity

Comp cards make ideal donations for charity events.  Paytronix’s comp solutions allow you to configure the gift in several different ways.  For instance, a card may offer: a discount on purchases, a fixed dollar amount, or provide complimentary menu items (e.g. a free entree or soup-for-a-year).  In addition, Paytronix comp cards feature POS integration which enables a simple redemption process -- just swipe the card!  Paytronix solutions give you the flexibility to:

  • Control the start and expiration dates.   
  • Ensure proper and accurate accounting of the transaction.

Paytronix provides you the freedom to create a compelling donation for any charity event while ensuring a smooth, simple redemption process.  

Trade Compensation

Comp cards provide an alternative way for your store managers to pay service providers (e.g., plumber or electrician) or to secure advertising time/space. Instead of paying in cash, you may find it advantageous to pay tradesmen, suppliers, or these other service providers in kind. 

Paytronix comp cards facilitate this payment option. The Paytronix reporting system gives oversight and control with an audit trail to track issuance and redemption for financial accounting.
