RESTAURANTS & CAFÉS / PAYMENT SETUP GUIDE
Payments that fit your service.
A coffee counter, a busy dining room and a food truck can have very different payment needs. Start with how you take orders and where customers pay, then compare equipment and software together.

Three questions to start with.
- Will customers pay at a counter or at their table?
- Do you need ordering, tipping, kitchen routing or menu modifiers?
- How reliable is Wi-Fi in the dining room or pickup area?
How to compare your options.
Counter-only service may suit a standalone terminal when separate order software already works for you.
Portable checkout is worth reviewing for table service; confirm connectivity, tipping and receipt options.
A fuller POS needs a review of menu tools, printers, kitchen connections and the software plan.
Prepare for your quote.
List your current order system, expected opening date and any printers you need to keep.
Compare the exact device, software, processing fees, installation needs and contract terms together. Ask which charges are one-time and which recur. Availability and pricing must be confirmed in a written proposal.
