Which factors create the best environment for your business? When choosing the right POS system for your business, there are several factors you should consider.

If you’re looking for Point of Sale software that you can buy outright with no ongoing fees, then WaiterPOS is the POS software for you. WaiterPOS is our on-premise POS (aka hosted POS, traditional POS, and server-based POS) which has been developed over a number of years so it’s easy to use with loads of great features, integrations and add on modules, and it’s incredibly stable. Plus, as WaiterPOS does not rely on the cloud, operations are uninterrupted during internet outages.

WaiterPOS can also be rented monthly which might suit you if you’re after features not available through PowerEPOS, such as Waiterpads for mobile order taking, and the ability to run loyalty and membership programs through your POS. Renting monthly helps to avoid the higher up-front cost of purchasing outright.

So, let’s take a closer look into the WaiterPOS POS ecosystem:

1. POS Hardware
WaiterPOS runs on Windows-based POS terminals and tablets. Extend your Point of Sale system by adding peripherals such as customer-facing displays, digital menu boards and run a paperless kitchen by installing Kitchen Video Displays (KVDs). Waiterpad, the original mobile ordering device connects seamlessly with WaiterPOS for in-venue mobile order taking.

2. Back-Office Management
This is the control centre of your POS system where products are entered and menus built, employees are managed, discounts & promos are created, stock is tracked, and front-of-house POS settings are configured.

3. Third-Party Integration
WaiterPOS is integrated with industry-leading software and apps to directly exchange data, thereby automating processes, and avoiding manual data entry and all the pitfalls that can accompany it. Accounting, stock and staff management, payments, property management, and more partners are integrated with WaiterPOS to simplify your business systems.

4. Loyalty & Marketing
Add Triniteq’s Market Manager module to your WaiterPOS set up to provide loyalty programs and collect customer information to use in targeted promotions and offers. Market Manager provides multiple ways to set up loyalty including multi-tiered rewards, membership swipe cards, and database searches to identify customers.

5. Payments
Providing your customers with the way they want to pay will create a more favourable experience. WaiterPOS offers the main ways to pay - cash, card, and EFTPOS. More advanced payment features are also included such as multiple ways to split bills, pay@table, and adding tips. WaiterPOS also offers customer accounts that can be set up and reconciled, and for retail, layby can be added to process payments over time.
