How GoTab’s Bar POS Enhances Experiences and Operations
Patrons are not just seeking great drinks; they crave an atmosphere, outstanding service, and a sense of belonging. In this dynamic and highly competitive industry, the strategic implementation of technology can be a game-changer. Modern Bar POS Systems like GoTab have transformed far beyond simple transactions
Tab Control- Elevating Convenience and Customer Satisfaction
One of the standout features of GoTab is the innovative Tab Control functionality. Picture a bustling Friday night at your bar, the place alive with energy. Now, imagine the convenience of initiating tabs by bartenders and seamlessly sending them via text to the customers. With this feature, patrons can add to their mobile tabs, share tabs with friends, and settle payments and tips—all without the hassle of trying to grab the attention of a busy bartender or navigating through crowded bars to close a tab. These seamless mobile payment features not only enhance the customer experience but also boost your sales while eliminating errors and wait times.
Easy Tab- Simplifying Group Orders with Ease
When patrons come to your bar with a group of friends, ordering drinks can sometimes become a complex affair. This is where Easy Tab comes to the rescue. It empowers guests to split tabs on their own terms, making the process incredibly straightforward. With Easy Tab, customers can divide tabs item by item, per person, or by dollar amount. Say goodbye to the inconvenience of paying for others' drinks, the worry of getting paid back, or the need to constantly flag down servers to split multiple checks. Customers now have complete control over their orders, ensuring a smoother flow at the bar and keeping the good times flowing.
Bar Accounting and Analytics
Transparent revenue reporting is essential for any bar's success. GoTab POS offers valuable insights that matter most to your operations. With access to first-party data that you own, you can make well-informed business decisions. Gain access to critical data points, including sales summaries, refunds, discounts, and item sales by zone and product type. These insights allow you to fine-tune your operations, identify top-performing products, and optimize your offerings for maximum profitability.
Walkout Authorization- Safeguarding Your Bottom Line
Walkouts and insufficient funds can be a headache for bar operators, causing inconvenience to staff and resulting in lost revenue. GoTab understands these challenges and has developed a solution that benefits both you and your guests: the Insufficient Funds Protection Product.
Guests will find this feature a breeze to use, and it requires no extra effort on your part. A simple, one-step setting in the GoTab Manager Dashboard activates this powerful tool.
Here's how it works: 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 means that if a guest orders a $125 entree and a round of drinks, we authorize the $125 payment and lock those funds on the card for that specific purchase. Even if the same guest orders another round on the same tab, we authorize and lock the new order amount.
GoTab captures payment (and tip if added) for each order during the lifetime of the tab. This ensures that funds are collected for the balance due on an open tab before the order is sent. With GoTab Insufficient Funds Protection, you can significantly reduce the number of open tabs rejected at the end of the night, whether due to insufficient funds, fraud, or other card issues.
Incorporating these cutting-edge features into your bar's operations not only enhances customer experiences but also streamlines your day-to-day processes, making your establishment more efficient and profitable. GoTab is committed to revolutionizing your bar's operations, ensuring that you stand out in the competitive world of nightlife.
