[Biz Takeouts Podcast] 157: Yoco, a new integrated point-of-sale and card payment solution

We were joined by co-founder and commercial director of Yoco, Carl Wazen. We looked at the history of Yoco, the roll out of the point-of-sale and card payment solution and what you need to get started. We also explore some of insights the Yoco dashboard offers to help businesses make better decisions, the app solution with Yoco as well as the costs involved. Spoiler alert, it's super cost effective.

In addition to boasting some known brands as merchants, such as Truth Coffee Roasting, Sushibox, Honest Chocolate, Bacon on Bree, Yoco has managed to tap into previously unchartered merchant territory.

We ended off the show by looking at the future of Yoco and the shopper experience around using the service.
