Every Phone Is Now a Till

Your waiter’s phone just became a payment gateway. The guest scans, the payment lands, everybody gets on with their evening. No terminal. No hardware. No fees eating your margin.

It is Friday night. The bar is three deep, the terrace is full, and a guest is waving at your waiter with a card in one hand and a look of mild desperation on their face.

Your waiter goes to find the terminal. Somebody is already using it. He waits. He comes back. It has gone to sleep. It reconnects, eventually, and takes its cut on the way past. Then it makes you wait three days for money you earned on Friday.

Delete that entire scene. Your waiter already has everything he needs in his pocket.

Contactless Payment is live across Tratok. Your staff open the app on the phone they are already holding, tap an amount or a menu item, and hold up the screen. The guest scans it. Done, in about four seconds, while both of them are still standing there.

Why you will want this before your next service

The setup is an email. That is the whole thing.

There is nothing to buy, nothing to install, nobody to book an appointment with. You send an invitation, your staff member signs in on their own phone, and they land on a payment screen locked to your venue. No procurement, no engineer, no three year contract with a company that will call you about upgrades.

You could genuinely have this running before tonight’s service.

Hand it to the new kid without handing over the business

This is the part owners will sit up for. You can invite floor staff as Service Employees, and that role sees exactly one thing: the payment screen.

Not your revenue. Not your bookings. Not your guest list, your listings, your team page, your banking details or your AI assistant. Nothing. And it is enforced on the server, so it is not a case of hoping nobody goes poking about in a menu they should not.

Which means the agency waiter you have never met, the summer starter on day one, the friend covering a shift: all of them can take payments for you this evening without ever seeing a number that is none of their business. Suspend someone and their access dies instantly, not whenever they next sign in.

Charge from your menu, or just type it

Tips your team will actually thank you for

Tip mode sends gratuities to a venue-level tip wallet shared by the whole team, so a tip belongs to the shift rather than to whoever happened to be holding the phone.

And tips stay out of your revenue figures entirely. They lift your withdrawable balance, they sit on their own line, and they never once inflate your sales reports or your tax export. Staff money looks like staff money, to you and to the taxman.

Your money, where your money already lives

A paid charge credits your withdrawable balance in the currency you billed in, and counts as revenue everywhere it should: dashboard, analytics, revenue and reports, the tax CSV. You request payouts exactly as you already do for bookings.

There is no second system. Nothing to reconcile at midnight. Nothing to export from one place and import into another.

Finally, you can see which door the money came through

Your dashboard now treats in-person takings as a proper channel. The revenue card carries a mix bar splitting online bookings from money taken off the floor, so you can tell at a glance whether your terrace is quietly outperforming your website.

Under it sits a live In-Person Payments panel: today’s takings and transaction count, month to date, tips today, tips this month, and the last five transactions as they happen, showing what was charged, at which venue, by which member of staff. If you do not use the feature, the panel never appears.

And the full Contactless ledger lists every charge and tip, filterable by type, status, venue and date, with per-currency totals split between charges and tips. Every line shows the fiat amount and the exact TRAT figure, so your books reconcile to the decimal.

What your guests get

Short version: the least painful payment of their trip.

It behaves identically whether their balance sits on Ethereum or BNB Chain. They never have to know, and they are never asked to pick.

Start to finish, in about four seconds

The honest pitch

Most crypto payment stories ask you to put up with something. Pick a chain. Copy an address. Pay a gas fee. Wait for confirmations. Cross your fingers that you pasted the right thing.

This one removes the friction instead of explaining it. For you: no terminal, no rental, no slice off every sale, no settlement delay. For your guest: no address, no chain, no gas, no waiting. They scan a code and it is finished.

It also means every TRAT holder out there will shortly have somewhere to spend it, and right now that somewhere is the venues already on the network. That is a queue you want to be standing in front of rather than behind.

Set it up from your accounts in the hospitality portal. Your guests need nothing but a funded Tratok wallet and the phone they already carry everywhere.

Finally sit back and watch Tratokians buy your services.
