Such issues are driving the adoption of contactless payments. These payment options include EMV cards — which consumers can tap against point-of-sale (POS) terminals to avoid making direct contact — and mobile wallets such as Apple Pay , Google Pay and Samsung Pay , which consumers can use for both in-store and online payments.

But restaurants that just let customers use Venmo may be missing out on some opportunities.
