How Tyro’s EFTPOS System Keeps the Good Times Flowing

The correct EFTPOS setup can transform the night in a venue where pace, service and sales are everything. Tyro’s innovative, seamless solutions are designed to move with you, maximising speed, flexibility and business growth without missing a beat. Here’s what sets Tyro apart:

1. Boost Your Bottom Line with Smarter Payments

Tyro’s No Cost EFTPOS ^ helps reduce the burden of payment processing costs from your pub’s expenses. By applying a surcharge to customer transactions, you can enjoy a $0 monthly bill for payment processing fees.

For pub owners operating on tight margins, this approach helps protect your bottom line by removing payment processing fees and terminal rental fees from your business expenses

2. Built Tough for Big Nights

Sticky floors, wet counters and rushed service? The Tyro Pro Key EFTPOS machine is durable and designed to withstand the rough-and-tumble environment of hospitality venues with a tactile keypad and a touchscreen. Whether it’s Friday night or a packed Sunday session, your EFTPOS will support you handle that pressure.
