Guest-Centric-Technology

We put your guests at the center of everything we do. Our platform is designed to enhance every aspect of their dining experience. From contactless ordering and payment options to personalized promotions and real-time communication, we empower you to create memorable moments that keep guests coming back to your restaurant for more.

Your Service, Your Way

GoTab gives restaurant managers the flexibility to run their operation the way that works best for their venue: high-touch, self-service, or a hybrid of the two. With this flexibility, we find our operators are far more cost efficient with regard to labor and produce higher than average sales per labor hour as well. In fact, GoTab venues carry an average labor cost percentage of 25.82% and produce an average of $83 in sales per labor hour. While labor is always a significant operational cost, the real value is in the sales per labor hour, which for GoTab operators exceeds the industry average by more than 1.5X.

No Lock-in Contracts

With no lock-in contracts and compatibility with virtually any Internet-enabled hardware, our platform is designed to enhance guest experiences and streamline operations, all while boosting your bottom line. Our contracts are month-to-month so we have to win your business again and again. You can run our system on a tablet, a Windows pc, an Android or IOS device, it’s up to you; nothing proprietary needed. When it comes to your payment processing, we recognize that there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution, so our goal is to find the solution that best suits your business.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is GoTab a restaurant POS system?

Yes. GoTab offers a restaurant POS that can be used in restaurants of any size. Uniquely designed for large, complex restaurant venues, our POS is the first system that places the guest at the center of the experience, not the tech. That means guests get to order, reorder and pay all through their phone without having to download an app. But our system goes a step further to provide all of the most important features of a POS, but the added benefit of interacting seamlessly with mobile orders.

How does the GoTab restaurant KDS work?

Restaurants gain numerous benefits when using the GoTab Kitchen Display System. With dedicated spots and ordering zones, the GoTab KDS lets the kitchen know the location of every order submitted. That means the kitchen can handle the order in the most efficient way possible, and expedite orders to the front-of-house using the KDS interface. Unlike traditional KDS systems, the GoTab KDS allows the kitchen to communicate directly with the guest via two-way text communication. This dramatically streamlines communication so order questions get resolved quickly and guests have up-to-date information on their orders (when needed). In-app support allows the kitchen to talk directly with a GoTab customer service representative, getting fast answers and resolution to any issues that arise.

Does GoTab charge differently for restaurant mobile payments?

No. GoTab does not differentiate restaurant mobile payments from mobile payment at other business types. See our simple and transparent pricing.

I use a different restaurant payment system. Do I have to change my payment provider to work with GoTab?

GoTab can work with a variety of payment providers. Please contact us to discuss your specific needs.

How does the GoTab restaurant handheld technology work?

The GoTab handheld POS works the same as a stationery POS system. Servers using the GoTab handheld POS can 86 items, rush and delay orders, adjust stock levels, process credit card and debit payments and more. And because the handheld POS is sized to be carried easily to any location on venue, your staff get the ultimate flexibility to address guests’ needs in the moment, without having to jot down orders, take notes or adjust orders at a POS station.

What are the most important features in a restaurant point of sale system?

The digital tab is the most powerful feature a restaurant point of sale system can offer. Digital tabs allow restaurant operators to give their guests complete control over their ordering and payment experience. And because the digital tab travels with the guest, guests get to order what they want, when and where they want it. Two-way text communication is also an important feature as it allows the quickest way to clarify ordering questions and ensure the guest knows what to expect in terms of fulfillment time.
