Arlington, Virginia - November 7, 2025 – GoTab operators are about to get a major hardware upgrade. Adyen, the global financial technology platform powering GoTab’s in-person payments, has announced the release of two new payment terminals—the S1E4 Pro and S1F4 Pro—built to perform in the most demanding hospitality environments.

These new devices combine the power of Android 13, robust build quality, and seamless integration with GoTab’s flexible entertainment commerce platform, giving operators the reliability, mobility, and speed they need to serve guests anywhere—from the bar to the beer garden to the bowling lanes.

S1E4 Pro: Smart Inside, Strong Outside

The S1E4 Pro is a rugged, all-in-one handheld POS designed to handle the daily realities of busy restaurants, bars, and event venues.

Durable & dependable: IP-65 spill and dust proof with a 1.5m drop rating
All-day performance: Long battery life, fast processor, 4G + Wi-Fi connectivity
Made for visibility: 6.1-inch screen for use in dim or bright environments
Full payments support: Tap, insert, swipe, or scan QR codes
Built to last: PCI 6 certified and PCI 7 ready

With its ergonomic handstrap and reliable connectivity, the S1E4 Pro is purpose-built for operators who need to move quickly without worrying about fragile hardware or lost connections during peak service.

S1F4 Pro: Mobile Flexibility Meets Countertop Power

For venues that want both mobility and the stability of a fixed POS, the S1F4 Pro delivers. When docked, it functions as a countertop terminal; when undocked, it becomes a fully mobile handheld with a built-in printer—perfect for queue busting or on-the-go service.

Hybrid design: Dock for stationary use or go mobile
Integrated printer: Print receipts anywhere without extra hardware
Fast and connected: Octa-core processor, 6.7-inch display, 4G/Wi-Fi/Ethernet
Rugged and reliable: PCI 6 certified, PCI 7 ready, long-lasting battery

This flexibility makes the S1F4 Pro ideal for restaurants, hotels, and entertainment venues where every second counts and service needs to flow effortlessly from table to terminal.

A Shared Commitment to Modern Hospitality

According to Derk Busser, VP of Product at Adyen,

“These new terminals are designed to directly address the unique challenges of sectors like food & beverage and hospitality. Whether it’s a rugged handheld for fast-paced service or a mobile terminal with integrated printing, our goal is to provide reliable, powerful tools that match operators’ real-world needs.”

GoTab CEO and Co-Founder Tim McLaughlin added,

“Our operators expect technology that’s as adaptable as their service model. With these new devices, we’re delivering the next generation of handheld POS—durable enough for the toughest shifts and smart enough to support everything from order-taking to payments in one seamless workflow.”
