PRODUCT OVERVIEW

What Is GoTab's POS?

GoTab is a restaurant POS (point of sale) system. It handles orders, payments, and kitchen communication — all in one place. It's built for operators who want to run their venue their own way — your POS shouldn't force you into one style of service.

A Single Tab That Travels With Your Guest

A guest opens one tab and uses it everywhere: to order, to pay, to earn loyalty rewards, and to get marketing offers. The guest stays at the center of the experience from start to finish, not just at checkout.

HOW IT WORKS

How GoTab's POS Works

Orders update instantly

When a server enters an order on a handheld device, the kitchen screen updates right away. Every device shows the same order at the same time.
