Why Cash for Emergencies is Critical
BFC Enterprises • January 18, 2024
There are countless reasons to keep an emergency fund, both for personal reasons and for your business. In regions that experience seasonal natural disasters, having a stash of cash can guarantee the ability to obtain necessities until life is back on track. Rather than use interest-accruing credit cards, that may not work if the electricity is out, to pay unexpected expenses the best plan is to keep cash on hand.

According to certified financial planner Michael Dubis, “Cash is always important to have, whether it's for an emergency or an opportunity.” Business owners especially can benefit from keeping extra cash accessible and having a stocked
ATM on site ahead of natural disasters.
- Weather Preparedness. While ATM operators can’t accurately predict the surge in cash demand during an emergency, having a stocked ATM on-site ahead of predicted natural disasters is a plus. ATM availability will draw foot traffic to your location and likely boost business as people prepare for incoming storms. In some instances, such as with customers who use payroll cards or their bank branches have already closed, your terminal may be the only the access consumers have to their money.
- Basic Living Expenses. During times of crisis, consumers still need to purchase necessities like food and water. Wide-spread power outages can make it almost impossible for consumers and companies to do business. Keeping physical money accessible means business owners can still sell goods as needed, even if it means tallying inventory and profit by hand, the old-fashioned way.
- Business Cash Reserve. Its ideal to have a credit line that can be tapped during emergencies, but for business owners it can be vital to keep several months’ worth of expenses available. Many factors, such as damage to your location and extended power or water outages, can affect the ability to re-open after an emergency, especially for entrepreneurial families who depend solely on income from a private business. Liquid assets can pay basic living expenses and allow for rebuilding as soon as the emergency is over.
In times of crisis, cash is a valuable – and even life-saving – resource. Having an on-site
ATM and dependable repair and replenishment services can help you prepare for emergencies and support customers during times of duress.

That's exactly why partnering with BFC Enterprises to select and manage your amusement games is a smart move. You get expertly matched equipment that maximizes fun, keeps customers engaged, and hits your revenue goals, without any of the guesswork or hassle. Game Selection Backed by Real Experience BFC Enterprises has spent decades placing games in all kinds of business environments. We've seen what works in shopping centers versus family restaurants. We know which games draw teenagers at youth sports facilities and which ones keep adults entertained at bars while they wait for their food. When we evaluate your location, we're looking at your customer base, your foot traffic patterns, and your available space. We're thinking about who's walking through your doors, how long they typically stay, and what kind of entertainment matches their vibe. Then we match game styles to those factors for optimal performance. You shouldn't have to figure this out through expensive trial and error. We already know what works. Maximize Play and Profit Here's a truth every business owner should know: not all amusement games perform equally in every location. Some games get tons of attention and consistent play. Others just take up space. We use data and hands-on experience to choose games that will actually get played. We place the ones that grab attention, generate consistent activity, and deliver the highest revenue return. This means more passive income for you without spending months testing different machines to see what sticks. Think of it this way: we're not just dropping random equipment in your location and hoping for the best. We're strategically placing proven performers that match your specific environment. That's the difference between a few extra bucks a month and a meaningful revenue stream. Regular Rotation Without the Hassle Even the best games can get stale after a while. That's why we don't just set it and forget it. BFC Enterprises actively monitors game performance at your location. When we notice engagement dropping or when there's an opportunity to refresh things, we rotate games to keep your customers interested and having fun. We also select seasonal prizes that keep people playing longer and coming back to see what's new. The best part? You don’t have to track any of this yourself. We handle the strategy, the swaps, and the prize selection. Your customers stay entertained, and you keep earning, all without lifting a finger.
