I did a test today while out, and was able to swipe, chip read, and touch pay using a Starlink Mini for payments.

So I should be able to take all card, chip, tap payments going forward.

Last year, Bomb Pop (Popsicle) discontinued the Sour Warhead Bomb Pop.

Some folks love the sour stuff, so I just got a newly released Bomb Pop Super Sour Strawberry, and I got my delivery today, and it's loaded and on the truck for purchase.

Normally, I accept payments with debit or credit cards.

Because of issues with cellular coverage which provides the internet to do card transactions, there are areas of my route that have no coverage.

I've had some issues last year, and now again this year with payments that I took in "OFFLINE MODE" which are run once you re-establish a cellular connection/internet connection, and then the transaction is run. I've only been out 2 days so far, and I have 4 transactions that were declined after the purchase when the card was run once the internet connected again.

So, I have no choice but to turn off "OFFLINE MODE" to avoid further losses. This means areas like Lewiston, Rush Creek Estates, and any other area where I cannot establish a connection to verify the purchases will have to be CASH ONLY.

I wanted to make sure to give a heads up to folks who in the past have used cards in these areas.

When you make your purchase, if the system says it cannot confirm the payment, you won't be able to make the purchase.

Our cellular service, even when in Weaverville leaves much to be desired with Verizon as many know. So either the payment shows "approved" or I cannot make the sale unless you can pay with cash.

I am sorry, but I've been left with no choice, and have to make this change to avoid further financial losses.

Due to a surcharge increase by Square POS Systems, credit and debit card purchases will be subject to a .35cent convenience fee.

I have absorbed the fee's for some time, and with the price increases, and, the fact that I've kept prices the same as last year, I have no choice but to charge a flat fee for card purchases to cover my costs.

The margins to make a profit are getting smaller and smaller, and I'm doing my best not to raise prices this year.

I appreciate everyone's understanding.

Just a reminder, Sweet Relief takes credit and debit cards using the Square POS system. There is no fee for usage, just a convenient option for those who wish to use a card for payments.
