Webinar: Why your POS isn’t just for cashiers anymore

June 2, 2021

Gone are the days when point-of-sale systems were only being used at the restaurant cash register. Diners are already using them to access menus, order and pay at the table, pay for drive-thru and curbside pickups, and much more. Whether your restaurant is a fast casual, quick service or fine dining concept, a cloud-based, mobile POS solution can help you reduce labor, eliminate unnecessary touchpoints, decrease friction, increase efficiency, shorten lines and maximize revenue.

Consumers plan to eat out more frequently this year, with 78% planning to dine out monthly (up from 59% last year), according to an Oracle study. Seventy-three percent plan to reduce their use of cash, and 49% want to reserve their table, order and pay through a mobile device. Restaurants also face a challenge with finding labor in the current market that's likely to continue, and they need better technology and tools to help facilitate customer service.
