"As we were looking for a new payments platform, we wanted a solution that seamlessly integrated to our systems while providing a reliable and easy to implement system to our stores," said Darven Erickson, President & CEO at Cypress Five Star. "Not only was Adyen able to check those boxes, we also discovered that we could implement payment features that will improve our restaurant experience. With Adyen's Terminal Fleet Manager, we were able to configure gratuity settings on the terminal which increased our average tip amounts by $1.12 per hour, per employee. Implementing a best in class system that maximizes tips for our team members helps Cypress provide an unsurpassed experience for our employees and ultimately, our guests."

Businesses like Cypress Five Star, choose Adyen for many reasons, including:

  • Multi-channel line-busting with kiosks and in-app ordering, and increased convenience by letting guests pay-at-table, creating a better customer experience.
  • Feature richness built with franchisees, franchisors, delivery services, and restaurants in mind and suitable for the entire industry. Adyen offers easy terminal rollout, consolidation of payments across sales channels, and faster payouts.
  • Cost-optimization by cutting down on fees, contracts, and partners with one platform. Merchants can focus on both scalability and their customers with one payment solution.
  • Rich restaurant and customer insights using Adyen's multi-channel data to understand customers and learn how individual stores are performing, to make the right choice when opening new locations and investing further in existing restaurants.

"Adyen's single platform simplifies payments in the increasingly complex space of food and beverage, allowing companies, owners, and operators to focus on how to best serve their customers while Adyen focuses on quickly changing customer demands around payments," said Brian Dammeir, President of North America at Adyen.
