About Round It Up America
The Round It Up America (RIUA) program is a simple program that invites restaurant patrons to donate pocket change by rounding up their purchases to the nearest dollar, or a specified amount. While the individual donations may be nominal, their collective sum is powerful. RIUA is designed to serve as a platform to centralize company giving and supports both national and local non-profit agencies. Today there are thousands of locations (Mission Partners) participating in the program. The RIUA website showcases the power of this initiative.
How does it work?
After signing a contract with the RIUA program, you must work with the Aloha® POS reseller partner or account manager to obtain the necessary files and implement the solution. After implementation, consumers write the amount they wish to donate on a designated line on the guest check or voucher, which you enter on the Close screen. Donation totals are available on the employee checkout report and the Aloha POS daily Sales Report to track Round It Up America obligations.
If you have any prospects or customers interested in participating, or have additional questions, please contact Michelle McCarthy, Executive Director of Round It Up America, at 855-554-RIUA or "mailto: mmccarthy@rounditupamerica.org".
Note: This feature works with both Table Service and Quick Service; however, the configuration is slightly different for each, as noted in the document.
