Zeller, the Australian fintech revolutionising business banking, has announced the launch of Split Payments on its Zeller Terminal. This highly anticipated feature allows customers to split payments evenly by the number of diners or by a custom value, making it easier and more convenient to settle group bills.

Split Payments offers a number of benefits for both merchants and customers. For merchants, Split Payments can help to reduce risk and increase sales. For example, if a customer doesn't have sufficient funds on one single payment method, they can use a combination of credit cards or digital wallets to pay the total. This is especially useful for businesses that sell high-priced items.

Split Payments can also help merchants to increase tips. Rather than leaving the tipping decision to one customer, each individual will be given the option of leaving a tip as they pay their share.

For customers, Split Payments offers a convenient and flexible way to settle group bills. It eliminates the need for one person to foot the entire bill and chase up others for their share. Split Payments is also a great way to ensure that everyone pays their fair share, especially when there are different dietary restrictions or price points.

To use Split Payments, merchants simply need to enable the feature on their Zeller Terminal. Customers can then split their payments by people or by amount. If they choose to split by people, Zeller Terminal will support the ability to split an amount equally by a set number of people (up to 20). If they choose to split by amount, customers can enter a value to initiate the payment.

Each split payment is treated as an individual transaction and will be shown in the merchant's transaction history list. To keep track of payments that have been split, a new Split Payment Details section has been added to the Transaction Details screen.

Zeller Terminal's Split Payments feature is a game-changer for both merchants and customers. It offers a convenient, flexible, and secure way to split group bills.

What Split Payments means for merchants

Split Payments offers a number of benefits for merchants, including:

• Reduced risk - Merchants can accept payments from multiple customers, even if one customer doesn't have sufficient funds on their payment method.

• Increased tips - Split Payments makes it easier for customers to leave tips, as each individual customer can choose how much they want to tip.
