At the counter, at the table or in the taxi: your customers scan a QR code and pay from their own banking app. No card terminal, no hardware rental, no waiting for payouts – the money is on your account before they walk out.
Firstguard gives taxi operators a payment solution without a card terminal in the car.
Passengers scan the code on the headrest and confirm in their banking app before the ride is over. Drivers spend less time on payments, passengers leave happier, and the money is on the operator's account before the next fare.
Restaurant
Put a QR code on the bill, the menu or the table. Guests pay from their seat, split the bill with friends and leave when they are ready.
No waiting for the terminal, no tip forgotten, and every table turns faster. Refunds and corrections are handled from your dashboard in seconds.
Street market
Sell at markets, festivals and pop-ups without renting hardware. A printed QR code and your phone are all you need.
Customers who no longer carry cash can still buy from you, and you avoid the fees a card reader would cost you per sale.
