1. Set up the business

  • Add your restaurant name, logo and contact details — Settings › Restaurant.
  • Add each location and set its tax rate and service charge — Settings › Branches.
  • Add your team and give each person a POS PIN — Team › Staff.

2. Build what guests see

  • Create your menu — categories first, then items with prices and photos — Menu › Items.
  • Lay out your tables and halls — POS › Floor plan.
  • Print a QR code for every table — Menu › QR codes.

3. Get the till ready

  • Pair at least one POS terminal to the branch — POS › Devices.
  • Check that your payment methods (cash, card) are switched on for the branch — POS › Settings › Payment methods.
  • If you print tickets, connect your printers and assign kitchen stations.
  • Run one test order end to end: open a check, fire it, take a test payment, close it.
TipDo the test order the day before you open, not five minutes before service. It’s the single best way to catch a missing price or an unpaired printer while you still have time to fix it.
