The iPad cash register market has exploded. Gone are the large black cash registers.
Criterion 1: The API connection. Your POS must communicate with UberEats, Deliveroo, your Click & Collect website, your accounting software, and your staff scheduling system. If it’s closed, run away.
Criterion 2: Offline mode. If the internet cuts out, can you process payments? Essential.
Criterion 3: Customer Support. When the cash register crashes on a Saturday night at 8 PM, does anyone answer the phone? Test the support before buying.
Criterion 4: The price. Monthly subscription (SaaS) or one-time license purchase? SaaS is the standard (updates included). Budget €40 to €100 per month per iPad.
Zelty is great for franchises/delivery. L’Addition is great for traditional restaurants (floor plan).
