various locations in Bangalore. It's essential to note that this may introduce
a personal bias into the post.
As
the 23rd day of PM Modi's UPI Challenge unfolds, thoughts arise about the
potential expansion of GoSelfServe (GSS) to religious institutions. The clock
is ticking, and time waits for none.
📅 As we
step into Day 23 of PM Modi's UPI 30-Day Challenge, the intriguing question
surfaces: Is GoSelfServe (GSS) ready to extend its influence into the sacred
realms of temples and churches? 🌐
The
relentless march of time presses on, and the 23rd day of this transformative
UPI challenge unfolds, bringing forth contemplation about the potential
diversification of GoSelfServe (GSS) into new territories.
🔍 A
scroll through LinkedIn surfaces a notable mention by Mr. Abhishant Pant,
casting a spotlight on GSS. Mr. Pant, a trailblazer in the realm of cashless
transactions, initiated a groundbreaking two-year experiment on March 13, 2016,
in Mumbai, India.

GoSelfServe (GSS), a product proudly made in India, designed to cater to Quick
Service Restaurants (QSRs) through interactive kiosks. The advantages it brings
are manifold: an increase in average order value, a significant decrease in
labor costs, an enhanced capacity during peak hours, and impeccable accuracy in
billing.
📍 GoSelfServe
(GSS) kiosks have firmly entrenched themselves in the landscape of Bangalore's
Darshinis. To understand this context better, a brief introduction to Darshinis
reveals their role as culinary havens in South India. The term
"Darshini" signifies a swift glimpse or preview of food, a concept
encapsulated by customers witnessing dishes being prepared in open kitchens or
displayed behind glass counters. Pay-first-eat-later is the modus operandi, and
Darshinis are revered as an integral part of local culinary culture.

GoSelfServe (GSS), a Made in India initiative, offers benefits for Quick

increased average order value, decreased labor costs, and enhanced peak-hour
capacity.

curiosity about its potential application in more diverse environments,
including religious institutions. Recent interactions between Mr. Satish Aski
(Co-Founder and CEO of GoSelfServe) and officials from the State Bank of India on
another project is a very good sign.
State
Bank of India already has a presence in eHundis across temples in South India.

partnership between GoSelfServe (GSS) and State Bank of India can be extended
to all religious places, where micro-donations are preferred.
A
rhyme on JSS and GSS:
In
Bengaluru's tech domain, JSS Academy stands tall,
Learning's
beacon, knowledge for all.
