ILLUSTRATIVE SERVICE · REAL FLOW

A Friday night, 9pm.

Four trips to the table with a card machine become none. The server who would have been fetching the terminal is taking the next order, and the table is turned two minutes after the guests decided to leave.

Guests don't flag anyone down, don't wait for the machine and don't do mental arithmetic on who owes what. The bill comes to them.

How pay at table works

Built around the way you serve.

Start with the service you run. Local fits around it rather than the other way round.

Table service

Guests pay when they're ready. The bill is live from your POS the whole meal, so a late dessert still shows up.

Counters and casual

Pay at the counter or at the table. Venues that want guests to order from the phone can switch on order and pay.

Groups and brands

One standard across every location, with reporting by venue and by day using the same definitions everywhere.

Hotels and groups

Check your restaurant’s POS connection.

Local connects with your POS. Request a walkthrough to check the supported configuration and staff payment view for your restaurant.

A cost comparison with your service in mind.

Not every bill will necessarily move to phone payment. Use a realistic adoption assumption and compare the costs that actually change.
