Payment
Make the payment process discreet, comfortable and accessible. The following points should be considered:
Core Requirements
| Reachability | Position payment terminals so they are easy to reach and choose models that are easy to operate |
| Payment methods | Offer a variety of payment options |
| Time | Allow sufficient time for the payment process |
Practical Tips
| Mobile payment terminal | Bring the mobile payment terminal to the table. This keeps the payment process independent for guests with mobility disabilities and removes the need to change location. |
| Contactless payment | Offer contactless payment (NFC) as standard. This is easier for guests with limited fine motor control. |
| Transparent communication | State the bill amount clearly and audibly. This helps guests who are blind or have low vision. |
| Visibility | On request, print the bill in large type or display the amount clearly so thatguests with visual disabilities can check the amount themselves. |
| Allow time | Allow enough time for payment. This reduces pressure for guests who need more time for individual steps. |
| Change | Hand over change piece by piece and state the amounts. This helps guests with visual disabilites and older guests keep track. |
| Accessible operation | Hold or position the terminal so guests can enter their PIN while seated. This enables wheelchair users to complete the payment independently. |
