Cash discount on checks

Hi, 

In NYS credit card surcharge is illegal. So I’m going to try cash discount. I plan to have 2 prices on my menu cash and credit. Eg: Burger cash $15 credit  $15.52.

In Toast I set all my prices to credit card price and set up a discount button of 3.5% cash. So if customer pays cash the server hits that button and pays lower amount.

my question is on the check the server drops to table, how do I display both credit card total AND either cash total or cash discount amount ?

thanks.

@JAS4 Yes, we have that capability; we call it "Cash discounting," and it is a more manual process. You can find out more here: What You Need to Know About Cash Discounting and Surcharging

One of my team members will contact you via email to provide further assistance!

I was told the same. I cam from Arryved, who despite their many shortcomings, did have a great dual pricing set up. Toast said this was an option they have.

We offer "cash discounting," to display both the credit card price and the cash-discounted price on the receipt, you can implement a cash discounting program.
This involves presenting only one price to the guest (the card price) and offering a discount if the guest pays in cash. You can learn more

What other cost-offsetting alternatives are there? Does Toast offer a compliant cash discounting sol...

@Stephen32 go ahead and create a service charge and call if “processing fee and apply it to no dining options but for all checks over .01 dollars. Then have your servers remove for cash

I too am looking for the option of having both the credit card price and cash discounted price on the receipt.  I have seen this at other locations that have the toast pos.  However I cannot figure out how to do it.  Any other thoughts out there.
