Streamline Restaurant Operations

Operating a restaurant is a stressful, round-the-clock job where time is ultimately the most precious of resources. Your ability to expedite business processes without cutting corners will mean the difference between failure and success.

POS systems for restaurants allow you to completely streamline every aspect of your food service business, thus helping you save time and money. From completing transactions and payment processing to managing your inventory, we provide you with a turnkey solution to optimize the everyday operations of your restaurant – whatever the size.

The biggest time saver is a kitchen display system (KDS). Orders route straight from the server’s screen to the right station, grill, fryer, or bar, so tickets stop getting lost and the kitchen sees modifiers clearly. Menu and price changes push to every terminal at once instead of being updated one device at a time. See how the pieces fit together on our POS systems page.

Optimize Service

With so many great food options out there these days, it’s never been more important to give your restaurant’s patrons what they want and provide them with excellent customer service. After all, it’s much more costly to attract and gain new customers than it is to retain old ones.

The point-of-sale technology on the market today allows you to integrate an array of great customer service features into your restaurant, bar, or coffee shop. Equip your waitstaff with mobile POS units loaded with menu items, images, ingredient lists, and allergy information. Let your customers pay with credit or debit instantly at their table with mobile EMV payments and payment processing integration.

Pay at the table is one of the fastest upgrades you can make. With a handheld terminal, the card never leaves the guest’s sight, which cuts skimming risk, and servers can split checks and prompt for tips on the spot instead of walking cards back and forth. It runs on the same technology as our mobile card processing.

Increase Productivity

Whether you run a restaurant, bar, or café, there are hundreds – if not thousands – of things you and your staff need to do every day. It’s easy to get bogged down with menial tasks such as looking up prices, splitting checks, and managing table distribution.

With a robust POS system, these tasks can be completed in a fraction of the time. Everything from taking and processing orders to distributing waitstaff and rearranging tables, the tedious chores that once sandbagged your productivity are now swift and almost effortless – freeing up you and your staff to focus on more important things, like customer satisfaction.

If you take orders online or through delivery apps, bring them into your POS instead of juggling a separate tablet for each service. Integrated online ordering sends delivery and pickup tickets straight to the kitchen alongside dine-in orders, so nobody re-keys an order and nothing is missed during a rush. Many restaurants run all of this on an iPad POS setup.

Make Smarter Restaurant Decisions

The business decisions you make for your restaurant – particularly in the first six months – will determine whether you sink or swim in the ever-competitive world of food service. Fortunately, Motile has your back. We can set you up with POS systems that provide you with up-to-the-minute data and business analytics that keep you informed and put you in a position to make the best decisions possible.

Modern POS technology allows you to track your inventory down to the ingredient level, generate progress reports and business projections, know which items make you the most money, and understand when it makes financial sense to bring on more staff. With access to this invaluable, real-time information, you can make smarter decisions without all the risk-laden heavy lifting of more traditional methods.

Focus on the reports that move margins: sales by menu item compared with food cost, labor cost as a share of sales, and your busiest hours by day of the week. Those three tell you what to reprice, what to cut, and how to staff each shift. A good POS builds them for you every night instead of leaving it to a spreadsheet.

Never Lose Revenue to Downtime

One of the biggest concerns for restaurant owners over switching to a point-of-sale system is the potential for lost income due to internet outages. This concern is a fair one, as any downtime in the system is likely to cause difficulty in processing payments and serving customers. However, new state-of-the-art POS systems are equipped to deal with that downtime, so you can rest easy knowing your systems are always operational.

Always-on Mode comes standard with many point-of-sale systems for restaurants. This technology allows swiped payments to be queued offline and then processed once your connection is back online. To you and your customers, these transactions will go through as normal without any hiccups – and you will never have to lose revenue to internet outages again.

Plan for outages before they happen. Choose a POS with an offline mode that keeps taking orders and cards when the internet drops, keep a cellular backup connection for your router, and set an offline transaction limit, since cards taken offline are only authorized once you reconnect. A short outage then costs you nothing instead of a full dinner rush.

Earn Customer Loyalty

The key to success for any restaurant is to not only provide great food and excellent service, but to keep the customer engaged with your brand and wanting to come back for more. A great way to achieve this is to use customer data gathered by your point-of-sale system to create a loyalty program that is specifically tailored to what your customers want, and rewards them for their continued patronage.

Let Motile link you up with robust, integrated POS solutions that allow you to incubate organic customer loyalty through point rewards, exclusive offers, and promotions. Entice and encourage your customers to reap the added benefits of their continued support of your restaurant – all conveniently managed within your consolidated POS ecosystem.

Loyalty works best when it is built into checkout. A POS-integrated program recognizes regulars by phone number or card, applies rewards automatically, and pairs well with gift cards, which bring in cash up front and new guests later. Learn about gift card and loyalty programs on our payment processing page, and if you are still shopping for a system, start with our questions to ask before choosing a restaurant POS.
