Overview Traditional table service restaurants are a demanding and competitive business segment. Great service is critical with every single customer, and even now, restaurants are under tremendous pressure to accept card payments at every possible venue; at the curb, at the counter, upon delivery and at the table.

With this information, criminals are able to make fraudulent purchases, or even worse, steal a consumer's identity. One type of scam called card skimming is a particular threat to restaurant owners.
