Real cost & Independence

Your POS does not cost what the fee says: it costs everything else

The traditional hospitality POS model rests on a network of distributors that install, maintain and charge: licence + proprietary hardware + annual maintenance + extra modules + lock-in. We have removed every link in the chain that does not add value to your restaurant.

No per-user licences. No proprietary hardware. No lock-in. Direct support from the people who build the product.

Anatomy of the hidden cost

The 6 surcharges of the traditional POS model

None of them appeared in the price you were given at the first sales visit. All of them appear after signing.

Proprietary hardware

Closed touchscreen terminals costing several times a standard tablet equivalent, only compatible with the manufacturer's software. The perfect lock: switching software means throwing away the hardware.

Maintenance contract

An annual fee for "technical support" that in practice covers what cloud software does on its own: updates, backups and support.

Modules sold piecemeal

The entry price covers the basic POS. Inventory? Extra module. Reservations? Extra module. Advanced reports, order app, kitchen display? Extra modules. The final price doubles or triples.

Per-terminal and per-user licences

Want to add a terrace tablet for summer? Another licence. Another waiter taking orders on their phone? Another licence. Cost grows with your operation.

Lock-in and penalties

Contracts of 24 to 48 months with early-exit penalties, often linked to hardware financing. Lock-in does not exist to protect you: it exists because without it, many customers would leave.

Your data held hostage

Years of sales, customers and menu live in a system that does not let you export them - or charges you for it. The day you want to leave, you discover that your own history is the argument for staying.

Bring your current contract. We will do the maths with you.

In 30 minutes we lay out what you really pay today - fees, maintenance, modules, licences - and what you would pay with us. If it makes sense for you to stay where you are, we will tell you that too.
