      t_text: <p>Split Tender supports various payment types. It's one bill on one or more payment modes. Customers can pay in easy installments. This makes check-out more convenient and efficient.</p><p>This type of transaction is frequently observed at group bookings. At the restaurant, customers share a bill and settle the payments independently. This avoids unnecessary hassle for other members and ensures no delays.</p><p>You could split the payment using various methods. For example, one part of the payment is made in cash, and the other is made by <a href="https://plumpos.com/mobile-pos/accept-credit-card-payments.html">credit card</a>. You could also combine two or more <a href="https://plumpos.com/digital-wallet.html">digital wallets</a> to make the payment.</p><p><a href="https://plumpos.com/blog/top-10-pos-systems-for-restaurants-in-usa.html">POS systems</a> have the functionality of Split Tender. All you need to do is compute the remaining balance. Check the system accounts for every payment accurately.</p><p>This results in fewer errors occurring during payment. Split Tender also makes customer service better. Customer payments are easier, faster, and handled well by employees. It's a requirement in today's restaurants, as every customer has various payment preferences.</p>
