Yeah, pay up front. I wish they did the terminal at the table thing.
I have come across a terminal or two in the US that could be detatched and brought over but of course they're too lazy to do so.
Which brings up a point, this card, if you try to do mobile nfc or mst, good luck in sit down or chain restaurants. One they takr your card away, the other has integrated pos swipes that they'll never understand/let you get near. I tried once at a bonefish with integrated pos swipe, whole system crashed. Hard.lol
