Damarina Pizzeria: more time for guests thanks to the right payment solution

11.11.2026

11 years ago, Arjan Marina decided to open his own restaurant in Estavayer-le-Lac. Today he runs Damarina Pizzeria there. PostFinance’s payment solution supports him in his lively day-to-day restaurant life. This enables him to focus on what is particularly important to him: his guests.

In short

  • At Damarina Pizzeria, the focus is on the guests and personal service.
  • PostFinance's payment solution supports Marino with daily payment handling.
  • When he has any questions about end-of-day closing, Marino appreciates the personal and quick support.
  • Simple processes create more time for guests and business operations. 

From part-time job to own restaurant

When he was twelve, Marino started working in a pizzeria in southern Italy. The part-time job turned into a passion. He learned the craft from the ground up and later gained experience in Puglia, Florence and Switzerland. Today, Marino runs Damarina Pizzeria in Estavayer-le-Lac, exactly where he once imagined his own restaurant would be.

Many tasks, one clear goal

Kitchen, purchasing, staff and administration: as a restaurant owner, Marino takes on many tasks. And his goal is always the same: to make the guests feel welcome, eat well and come back again gladly. To enable him to focus on this, he needs simple and reliable processes in the background. This includes payment processes.

Easy payment handling in everyday restaurant life

In the gastronomy sector, many things have to work at the same time. Marino and his team focus on serving the guests and preparing pizzas, so the handling of payments should be as simple as possible. That’s why Damarina Pizzeria relies on a payment solution from PostFinance. For Marino, it’s not just the reliable payment handling in everyday life that counts. If questions arise, he also wants to receive support quickly. PostFinance was able to help him with questions about his end-of-day closing. He particularly appreciates the personal and quick support. This allows him to focus on what is at the heart of the matter: his guests, his team and his restaurant.

I think Damarina and PostFinance have precisely that in common: the service and the willingness to be there for their customers.

Three learnings for other SMEs

Whether it’s a restaurant, a sales outlet or a service provider: the payment solution should meet the company’s requirements. PostFinance offers various payment terminals for different sales situations.

  • Processes need to be simple and reliable during the hectic daily work activities. This also applies to payment processes. A suitable payment solution supports the team with daily payment handling and fits in with the business processes.

  • Kitchen, purchasing, staff and administration activities are things Marino has to deal with every day. The easier recurring tasks are, the more time there is for the core business. This also applies to payment processes and end-of-day closing.

  • Smaller companies, in particular, cannot build up their own specialist knowledge for each topic. That’s why fast, personal support is important if questions arise. For Marino, this means less administrative work and more time for his guests and business operations.
