Choosing the right POS provider doesn’t have to be a mammoth task but yes this is an important decision for your business. Many have FREE trial periods and it’s worthwhile taking a look around and having a play with a fictitious shop or restaurant. Get a feel for what works and pick one that has easy add-ons that can be easily removed.
The pandemic taught us about customer habits and the challenges that a pub or restaurant faced were really testing for most. The POS providers really pulled out the stops with Take-Away and online ordering platforms, look for a provider that was proactive and developed platforms when the chips were down!
