Handheld POS

Manage Checks Everywhere

We’ve bundled all the features of our popular all-in-one point-of-sale system into a pocket-sized Handheld POS that serves all your guests’ needs. Staff can place orders, view open and closed tabs, take payment and so much more. Use our Handheld POS in high-volume, high-traffic establishments like large restaurants, food halls, sports and entertainment venues, i.e., anywhere you have limited staff coverage or want to improve staff response times.

Comp, Void, Refund and Discount at The Table

Your mobile POS is a perfect complement to our Restaurant Commerce Platform because it works seamlessly with GoTab Mobile Ordering & Payment and Restaurant POS system. It allows staff the freedom to move about and serve your guests efficiently, while saving countless steps. For guests who prefer Mobile Ordering and Payment, our Handheld POS lets staff work with mobile orders the same as orders submitted through the POS.

You’ll speed up service and give staff the much-needed flexibility to address guests’ needs in-the-moment. Staff can use the Handheld POS to take orders and process all forms of payment, right at the table. No more walking back and forth to a POS station, or waiting in line for their turn to ring orders or payments, your staff get to focus on the guest experience. Unlike legacy POS systems that make large parties and events a chore, servers using the GoTab Handheld POS can effortlessly split, move, and merge guest tabs on-the-fly.

Pre-Auth and Start Checks at the Table

Using the Handheld POS, staff can order anything from the menu by starting a new tab or adding onto an existing tab. They can authorize new tabs directly from the device to ensure a payment is always attached to a tab. They can search and browse for menu items the same way as they can on our stationary POS. They can also use the GoTab mobile POS app settings to change menu views associated with respective spots/locations within your venue.

Full Payments Flexibility

Staff can accept all payment forms directly at the table. No need to have physical cash drawers to accept cash. They can also easily accept contactless tap-to-pay using a standard credit or debit card or GoTab Pass RFID cards or wristbands.

And with full product management flexibility, they can even adjust inventory levels, 86 items, or set product delays without having to go through a time-consuming system update. It’s all available right in the Handheld POS.
