Read a case study from one of the many independent business owners who have already adopted Shrap.
Without easy access to a bank branch, managing a coin float is increasingly problematic. “It’s very costly and time-consuming,” says Rhonda, owner of independent café Home Sweet Home.
The business is small but popular, serving anywhere from 50 - 100 customers per day, including regular locals and visitors from outside the area.
Cash remains a popular payment method, with around 60% of transactions made in cash.
“Our community supports one another, supports independent businesses, and cash is very important here” says Rhonda.
“Shrap is a perfect fit for us because it makes it easy and affordable to keep accepting cash - the important bits of cash that people actually use - without depending on bank branches, which seem to be closing down everywhere.”
Home Sweet Home uses Shrap’s smartphone app to issue change and receive payments.
Since adopting Shrap, Home Sweet Home has reduced its requirement for physical coin by over 60%, and Rhonda hopes to be able to use Shrap to issue change to (and receive payments from) all of her customers.
“It’s also great that me and my staff can receive tips through Shrap. It saves us having to deal with the coins at all."
