Discover how Mehrspur, a club and experimental music laboratory at the ZHdK, has achieved reliability and efficiency in its checkout processes with Paymash.
Experimental music meets reliable technology
In Zurich's vibrant music scene, Mehrspur stands out as a special place. As an experimental music laboratory, stage, and home to jazz and pop musicians from the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK), it offers an insight into current trends and highlights of the music scene. Behind the scenes, a reliable system ensures that operations run smoothly – Paymash.
More than just a student club
Oli, managing director at Mehrspur and responsible for finance and accounting, had a clear vision: “My goal has always been to create a nightlife ambience that comes across in an independent market environment and does not appear as a school club.”
Implementing this vision also means finding professional solutions for day-to-day operations. With several bars, tills, and cloakrooms, Mehrspur relies on a reliable POS system.
Why Paymash was chosen
“We took our time with the new POS system. I looked at and compared a lot of things on the internet,” says Oli, describing the search for the right system. There were three main factors that were important to him:
- Competitive commissions
- High system speed
- A clear backend
After extensive research, Mehrspur decided on Paymash – a decision that has paid off.
The advantages of Paymash in daily operation
What Mehrspur particularly appreciates about Paymash is its absolute reliability. “No interruptions, that's extremely important for operations. That the POS system servers don't crash in prime time. As far as I know, that has never happened. That's very cool,” emphasizes Oli.
The connection between the POS system and Paymash card terminals offers the team further decisive advantages:
- Time savings: “You can send the amount from the cash register directly to the terminal. This saves time. And time is capacity and money.”
- Tip function: The bar staff appreciate the integrated tip option for card payments.
- One point of contact: “This is easier. Then you only have one person in charge. With too many providers, responsibility is passed back and forth.”
- Speed and stability: “We like the fact that the system is fast and more stable than the previous provider we had.”
The backend as an accounting assistant
For Oli, who is responsible for accounting, the Paymash backend offers particular advantages: “I appreciate the backend with the debtor management and sending invoices and the clarity.”
The versatile functions such as voucher management are available, even if Mehrspur does not yet use all the features due to capacity reasons. ”I feel it is a complete system. It's great for a company our size,” Oli summarizes.
Continuous further development for the future
Looking to the future, Oli is open to further innovations from Paymash. The self-service function using QR codes, for example, could be interesting for the entrance area. ‘I think it's cool that you're always developing,’ he says, praising Paymash's continuous commitment.
Conclusion: A reliable partner for creative places
The collaboration between Mehrspur and Paymash shows how a reliable, fast, and clear POS system can support the daily operations of a versatile cultural and music venue. While experimental music and cultural exchange take place in the foreground, Paymash ensures that everything runs smoothly in the background.
