8 Reasons mPOS Is The Perfect Fit For Hospitality

The interesting thing about mobility is that it doesn’t matter what the industry, it always changes the paradigm in a positive way. Look at police/emergency response, doctors, pilots, utility meter reading, package delivery, and even football players: You can easily visualize the benefits from having computers with you as opposed to having to input and print out data off the point of task execution. Restaurants are no different; any element of running a restaurant that you can make mobile, you can make more efficient. Below I have listed my top eight benefits, but literally, I can I think of hundreds of ways you can disrupt the conventional methodology of ordering, paying and managing a restaurant, bar or foodservice operation using mobility.

Let me make it clear it is not the fact that a POS (point of sale) system calls itself “mPOS” that makes it a perfect fit for restaurants, but rather the features, functionality, and maturity of software that, when combined with mobility, make it a perfect fit. So let’s not call it mPOS but “mobility for operation, payment and management.”

1. Mobile Ordering. There is organic reduction of steps in placing the order as it is given as opposed to when it is inputted into a stationary terminal. This is why ordering at the table or line busting can increase sales revenue by upwards of 30 percent. It eliminates inefficiencies that occur between taking the order and entering the order.
