In their own words
DISH Payment Solutions
DISH Payment Solutions provides restaurants with cashless payment hardware, software, and processing through DISH Pay. Payment options include card readers, contactless Tap to Pay, QR codes, and online payments. Terminals can integrate with DISH POS, and some can operate without a POS connection. The service includes cashless tipping, regular payouts, centralized transaction visibility, and customizable receipts on some terminals; customers can view transactions and refunds in the DISH Pay Dashboard. Connectivity depends on the device: the V400c Plus supports Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or Bluetooth, while the S1F2 can switch between Wi-Fi and a SIM network. QR payments require an active DISH POS system and do not apply to DISH POS Lite. Customers must complete verification with the payment provider, and transaction fees start at 1,89% of the transaction amount and vary by card type. Hardware is available for rental or purchase, with listed purchase options from €22,000 as a one-time purchase purchase, excl. VAT. DISH states its information security management system is ISO 27001:2022 certified.
