Full Service Restaurant Payments

The restaurant industry thrives on efficiency, customer experience, and managing a complex array of front-of-house (FOH) and back-of-house (BOH) operations. Restaurant owners face daily challenges from managing staff and table turns to tracking inventory and coordinating the kitchen. Payments should be a seamless part of this ecosystem, not another hurdle. Unfortunately, many struggle with outdated or confusing POS systems, rising credit card processing fees, and frustrating call-center support when issues arise.

Wingman Payments understands that restaurants need more than just a payment processor; they need a partner. Wingman specializes in providing tailored POS and payment solutions that address these specific challenges. We take the time to understand each restaurant’s unique floor flow, staff roles, tipping procedures, and kitchen coordination. This allows them to recommend the right tools and strategies, ensuring the payment system helps rather than hinders operations.

Problems We Solve

Wingman Payments directly addresses the most pressing challenges faced by restaurant owners, allowing them to focus on hospitality and culinary excellence.

Confusing or Outdated POS Systems

 Generic or old systems hinder efficiency. Wingman recommends and implements modern, tailored POS solutions like Lavu for fine dining or FRI POS for fast-casual, optimizing table management, ordering, and kitchen flow.

Rising Processing Fees Eating into Margins

Credit card fees can severely impact a restaurant’s profitability, especially in an industry with tight margins. Wingman’s Dual Pricing and Cash Discount strategies provide compliant ways to offset these costs, protecting revenue without having to raise menu prices across the board.

Call Center Support When Something Breaks

When a POS system fails during a busy shift, waiting for a call center is not an option. Wingman offers proactive installation, training, and “We’ve Got Your Six” real support, ensuring issues are resolved quickly and locally, minimizing downtime.

Inefficient Order and Payment Flow

From managing servers and table turns to coordinating kitchen orders, inefficiencies can hurt customer experience and profitability. Wingman’s solutions, such as handheld ordering and integrated KDS via Lavu, streamline operations, making the entire process smoother for both staff and diners.

FAQ

Will my servers still be able to split checks and track tips?

Yes, all recommended POS systems include this functionality.

Do you support multi-location restaurant groups?

Absolutely. We help standardize operations across locations.

Can I keep my existing kitchen printer?

Often yes, we check compatibility before proposing a new setup.

Do diners complain about dual pricing?

Not when it’s explained clearly. We provide signage, training, and compliant receipt templates.

I’m currently the owner operator of Breathe Easy Concierge Mechanic. We are a mobile mechanic service that goes for our customers.

When I met with Weston and Mike. I made it very clear that my struggles with taking Payment for my clients for overcomplicated with the current CRM system I use.

Mike took an hour of his time to go line by a line with my QuickBooks, my stripe CRM system, my current charge back on credit card statements to determine if his system made sense for me to use.

He made it very clear upfront what the cost has been for my merchant service per transaction and showed me exactly what my monthly charge would be.

Personally, I didn’t believe him until the first statement came out. Because of my experience, it’s always been hidden fees an additional surcharge chargebacks.

This is not the case. To the penny, every transaction has been accounted for my bank deposits have matched, and my credit card monthly fee to have PCI compliance has cost exactly what he’s promised.

Month two into the service we had an anomaly of a charge hit our system from his company. I called. Mike asked him aMonth two into the service we had an anomaly of a charge hit our system from his company. I called Mike asked him a question and Mike rectify the issue within 24 hours and gave us a credit back and changed something in the software settings that was overlooked. Mike acknowledged The error was internal and won’t happen again.

The reason why I type all this is if you’re looking for somebody who is going to be transparent with you about his industry, Mike and Weston or who you should do business with.

They care to answer your call. And they have no problem telling you if they’re not a good fit for you.

Highly recommend Wingman Payments. They really do have your SIX

As the owner of a digital marketing, social media, videography, and paid ads agency, finding a trustworthy payment processor was critical. I work with clients across the country and was referred to Wingman Payments in Alpharetta, GA and even operating remotely, the service and transparency have been outstanding especially after my previous account was abruptly shut down and I was forced onto higher processing fees and almost no support. They offer transparent payment processing with every fee explained upfront with no hidden markups. My rates are competitive, my statements are clear, and I finally feel like I understand exactly what I'm paying for. The next-day funding has been a huge benefit for managing cash flow between client invoices, and their seamless support for online credit card or ACH payments fit perfectly with my business model.

If you're a marketing agency, social media manager, videographer, or digital advertiser in the Atlanta metro area looking for a payment processing partner that's honest, responsive, and cost-effective, look no further than Wingman Payments. Five stars without hesitation.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind words—we really appreciate you taking the time to write this.

We know how important it is to have a payment processor you can actually trust, especially when you’re working with clients all over the country. Hearing that the transparency, support, and next‑day funding have made things easier for your business means a lot to us.

We’re especially glad we could step in after a tough situation and help bring some clarity and stability back to your payment processing.

Thanks again for trusting Wingman Payments. We’re grateful and happy to have your six.

They are friendly, helpful, and intelligent people.

I would recommend their service to anyone I know!
