“We know that restaurants across Canada have been seeking resolute answers regarding their payout operations,” said Marilyn Schaffer CEO, XTM Inc. “As part of our enduring commitment to being the compliant payment platform in North America, we’ve collaborated with Restaurants Canada and industry expert, James Rhodes, to provide a webinar for our clients that covers legal context, a tangible action plan and next steps for getting onside with gratuity compliance.”
XTM recently rebranded its #1 payment solution, called ‘Today’ as well as their mobile app ‘Today Financial’.
