PAY YOUR BILLS!

-
So how do you make sure your bills are paid on time and on budget?
Here are a few POINTERS:
  1. Come up with a budget:
When the end of the month is approaching, draw up the next month's budget and include the monetary allocation for all your bills and due dates. Most billing agents  send reminders two to five days before the bill is due. Make note of it and add it to your budget. Don’t forget to add processing charges. Mobile money providers and bank apps charge a small fee to process your bill payment so note that down too.
  1. Pay them up all at once, same day, same time
Where possible, pay all your bills on the same day. Sit down with a pen and paper or your excel sheet and pay them all at the same time. This ensures that you don’t forget to pay any of them only to have to pay up in the middle of the month when funds are a little low.
  1. Have reminders- Where your billing agent doesn’t send reminders, or your due date falls on some obscure day in the middle of the month, it is important to set up a reminder to help you keep track of the bill. Ideally, the reminder should be a day or two before the due date so that you have plenty of time to pay and avoid disconnection.

The point-of-sale (POS) environment has undergone an evolution over the past few decades in both technology and methodology. With restaurants and retailers looking to provide the best customer payment experience while simultaneously optimizing their internal capabilities and operations, a shift to cloud-based POS solutions is inevitable. Here, we’ll take a look back at POS systems of the past and how today’s technologists and developers are providing enhanced capabilities and substantial operational benefits in the development of POS solutions. Legacy POS systems—also known as “traditional” systems—are characterized by stationary terminals that store payment data on local servers and run on a closed network. The 1980’s marked the arrival of legacy POS hardware devices such as  electronic registers and credit card readers , but the most significant trend emerged in 1992 with the launch of the first  POS software  for Microsoft Windows. This revolutionary software—and similar PC-based

DIGITAL WALLETS

Millennials look at money differently than any previous generation has. Millennials are quick to adopt new technology, with many  trading in the idea of cash  -- they really don't want to be bothered or bogged down with traditional payment methods. The Millennial, as well as many others, are ready to get rid of the cash, altogether in exchange for digital wallets that hold their money and credit. However, those that study spending habits have found that not using cash tends to lead to overspending because there is a lesser connection to how money is being spent and how this may be depleting the bank account. When using cash, consumers are much more aware of the value of money for each item they purchase. Better Transaction Records for Improved Spending Millennials are much more cautious with how they spend their money, essentially growing up in a society that was already using debit and credit cards over cash for most transactions. Therefore, they have learned to adapt their
