How to Find the Best POS
Cutting-Edge Point of Sale Technology

Challenges

Following are problems with POS systems. You need either a new POS or need to replace your old one. Unfortunately, not all alternatives are the same…

Old Equipment

Some vendors sell outdated equipment, their handheld terminal doesn’t print at the table (so you must run back and forth), you can’t process if the Internet dies, there are no hostess tablets, and no kitchen display screens (you’re still shouting orders).

Junky POS

Don’t have native online ordering (you must rely on Uber Eats, DoorDash, or GrubHub—at 15-30% commissions… they quickly eat your profits!). Or, no online reservations or a waitlist. This should be a common post Covid!

Pathetic Restaurant Management

Many use old systems—weak at tracking inventory, company supplies, customer engagement, or employee management.

Limited Mobile Access

Some have a mobile app, but it is only good for reports—you can’t run your business from home if needed.

Lousy Support

Many vendors do NOT have local-in-person support, equipment delivery is slow and there is no phone support.

Used-Car Price Gouging

Some of the most popular alternatives bait you with intro pricing and then gouge you when the “real” price kicks in or they charge for installation, software, integrations, or high equipment prices, Here’s your lollypop! (Think you’re a sucker)

THE BIG QUESTION

PICTURE THIS

Old Life – Outdated Equipment

You’ve got 3 waiters in line at the cash register—that’s sloppy

Everyone is still shouting the orders into the kitchen or using cryptic handwriting (sounds like a burger joint)

Around 5 pm the phone starts ringing—and you know you’ve lost some business since it rings busy

You think, “If you only had online ordering”

You tried Uber Eats and DoorDash, but their commissions ate up your profitsThere’s no online schedule, so your server didn’t show up—so you’re shorthanded (again)

You did get a new mobile app, but it’s only good for reports

You are chained to the restaurant and can’t work from home

Life sucks

Your NEW life

You just swapped to Sky Payments

Payments are received and receipts are printed tableside—no more long queues at the register

You’ve got drivers making deliveries, but you process the payments directly (no 15-30% DoorDash “scalping” fees)

And if you get a call to override a payment mistake (since you’re at home)—your mobile app makes it simple to approve

Your operation runs much smoother, your reviews are higher, you’re turning more tables, & paying less fees

Profits are up, stress is down

Life is Good
