Does 0.5% feel small?

  • At smaller volumes it feels incremental.
  • At larger volumes it becomes strategic.

If your restaurant processes meaningful monthly card volume, seemingly small rate differences can quietly add up. Compare how a 0.5% or 1% improvement affects your monthly and annual costs before you commit to a POS and processing setup.

Full-service restaurants

Tabit for full-service restaurants

We partnered with Tabit so you can get the best POS for hospitality and the best transaction fee.

For restaurants that need more than a simple POS. In full-service environments, guest flow, staff workflows, and service coordination matter. Tabit can be a strong option for restaurants that need a more advanced front-of-house and service-oriented setup.
