Remember those little pieces of paper you could use for payment before the shiny plastic cards came around? Checks are retro, but we support you if you support your check-loving guests! This article shows you how to accept a written check as payment in Arryved Service.
You have the physical check on hand and the guest is ready to close their tab.
If the amount on the check exceeds that tab’s total, the remaining amount is reported as the tip.
With Arryved’s donation feature, you can’t collect donations with a check payment.
Arryved doesn’t offer electronic check validation. Check payment in Arryved Service is for Arryved reporting alone.
Whether you’re closing an active tab or performing a quick close transaction, the guest can pay by check. If needed, review how to get to the Payment Options screen, and return to this article.
