Simplified Guest Experience to Scale and Grow

Hoppin’ Brands encountered multiple obstacles due to their outdated point-of-sale (POS) system. The guest check-in procedure was inefficient, as the old setup necessitated a distinct screen for their PourMyBeer tap wall, leading to wasted time and extra steps for the staff. The slow check-in process resulted in delays, creating backups at the entrance. Additionally, the disjointed system integration required extra time and effort due to separate platforms for POS and beer tap services. Furthermore, there was an absence of features for managing VIP memberships and subscriptions. Lastly, the previous system failed to facilitate smooth royalty deductions for franchise operations, complicating financial oversight.

“Hoppin' has grown from Uptown Charlotte to five locations across the country. Three more will open in the spring, and we’ll open 3-5 more each year. With GoTab, we are well prepared to keep growing.” - Rich Moyer, Founder and CEO

GoTab + PourMyBeer - A Single Screen For Streamlined Ordering & Payment

By switching to GoTab, Hoppin' Brands greatly improved its check-in process. They cut wait times in half. The system works seamlessly with PourMyBeer. This eliminates the need for multiple check-in screens. GoTab makes it even better for guests to order premium cocktails by letting customers access their tabs by scanning their wristbands. 

GoTab offers a built-in VIP membership system, removing the need for third-party solutions so Hoppin' Brands can offer subscription services at all locations easily. Managing finances across many franchise locations is now much easier. With GoTab, Hoppin' Brands can automatically deduct royalties daily. This means no more large monthly invoices. This feature gives franchisees more financial flexibility.
