For businesses
that never stop serving
No two hospitality businesses run the same. A small coffee shop, a family restaurant, and a high-energy bar all need something slightly different from a restaurant POS, but they all need one that keeps service flowing.

A restaurant POS handles the parts of service that need to happen at speed: ringing up sales, opening tabs, splitting bills, printing receipts, and tracking what's selling. iK POS brings these into one cashier-till with a built-in printer and software designed for restaurants, bars, and cafés. Smaller setups that aren't ready for a full POS can start with iK Flyer or iK Flyer Lite to handle card payments, and move into iK POS as the business grows.
