Whether they're at the bar or in a crowded club, patrons can place orders without waiting for a server's attention.

Walkouts and insufficient funds can be a headache for bar operators. These issues not only inconvenience your staff but also result in lost revenue. GoTab understands these challenges and offers a solution that benefits both you and your guests. With this feature, when a guest opens a tab with a credit card, GoTab locks the funds for the balance due each time a new order is placed. This ensures that funds are collected for the balance due on an open tab before the order is sent.

Prompt, responsive service is the keystone of great guest experiences. That’s why we work collaboratively with operators to connect the front-of-house with back-of-house through our kitchen display system (KDS) and kitchen management tools.

In compliance with national, state, and local liquor laws, servers will not serve alcohol to underage guests. If ordering alcoholic beverages, guests should be prepared to show their server a valid ID. Underage members are still welcome to place orders for food or non-alcoholic beverages through GoTab!
Insufficient Funds Protection helps operators mitigate the risk of significant losses associated with walk outs and insufficient funds. When a guest initiates an order with a credit card, GoTab performs an automatic authorization, locking the funds equivalent to the outstanding balance. Each time the guest places a new order, GoTab repeats the authorization, ensuring that the card has sufficient funds for the new order.
GoTab requires that everyone who opens a tab with a credit card when placing their order. If a guest leaves a tab open, the tab will automatically be closed when the venue closes. Therefore, guests cannot accidentally leave without closing their tab!
If guests are ordering through a server or bartender on the GoTab POS there is no change. The main difference with GoTab is when members order via a QR code on their table. In that scenario, the server will know which location the order was placed from and can check the guest’s identification for age verification and deliver the drink to the guest. Depending on the bar setup, guests can also be notified via text that their drink is ready with directions to the pickup location.
With GoTab, bars can configure a default tip that can be automatically applied to each order. Guests can also adjust the tip percentage on the payment information screen, however, some venues may choose to require a minimum tip (or service fee).
Easy Tab is the tab that travels with the guest. Guests open a tab with a swipe or dip of their card with a bartender or server. GoTab then sends a link to the tab to the guest’s mobile number. Guests maintain control of their credit card and can reorder and pay using the same tab on their mobile device. Bar operators pay lower transaction fees because the guest pays once when they close their tab, instead of each time they order a drink.
