How Gainesville Businesses Save Money Year-Round with CashVue's Cash Discount Program
Lower your credit card processing fees and boost your bottom line with CashVue ATM services tailored for Gainesville's unique retail and hospitality landscape, where cash transactions remain essential across campus-adjacent businesses, sports event venues, and downtown entertainment districts.
How the Cash Discount Program Works in Gainesville
Rather than absorbing card processing costs that cut into your margins, our system automatically applies a modest service fee to all card transactions. When customers throughout Gainesville—from the University Avenue corridor’s dense cluster of cafes and food trucks to Butler Plaza’s retail anchors, and especially during gamedays when 90,000+ fans flood the city for football at The Swamp—choose to pay with cash instead, the service fee is instantly removed, giving them a genuine discount while you retain full revenue. For the restaurants, quick-service eateries, retail shops, and service businesses that thrive on UF’s 50,000+ student population and the constant flow of visitors and parents, this means no more eating card processing fees out of your operating budget.
✔ 100% compliant with Visa, Mastercard, and processor guidelines
✔ Automated fee adjustments integrated into your POS or terminal
✔ Clear signage and receipt messaging provided
✔ Works with countertop, wireless, and tablet POS systems used across Gainesville businesses in the Newberry Road commercial district, Tower Road corridor, Tioga Town Center, and beyond
