How does using SoftPOS speed up service and reduce wait times, and how does that increase sales?

Tap. Pay. Go. How SoftPOS Speeds Service and Lifts Sales

SoftPOS turns smartphones into card readers so guests can tap and pay on the spot. No waiting for a free terminal. No shuffling the line. Faster checkout cuts bottlenecks, reduces walkaways, and lets your team serve more people in less time. That bump in speed drives higher revenue during every rush.

What SoftPOS Is

SoftPOS is a secure app that lets staff accept contactless cards and mobile wallets on a standard smartphone. It removes the need for extra hardware and adds checkout points anywhere your guests are standing.

How SoftPOS Speeds Up Service

Line busting in minutes

Move staff into the queue with a phone to take orders and payments before customers reach the counter.

Wins

  • Shorter lines during peak hours

  • Faster first contact with customers

  • Smoother flow at the register

Checkout anywhere

Accept tap to pay at the door, patio, or curbside. Meet guests where they are and finish the sale on the spot.

Wins

  • Less crowding at the counter

  • Quicker handoff for order ahead

  • Better experience for large groups

Fewer hardware bottlenecks

Because every enabled phone becomes a checkout point, you are not stuck with one or two card readers.

Wins

  • More transactions at once

  • Less downtime when a terminal is busy

  • Easier staffing during events

Simple, quick payments

Tap to pay is faster than chip inserts and cash handling. Shorter steps mean faster tickets.

Wins

  • Lower average transaction time

  • Cleaner upsell flow at checkout

  • Happier guests who return

How Faster Service Reduces Wait Times

  • More active checkout points per square foot

  • Faster payment steps with tap and mobile wallets

  • Less back and forth between order station and payment device

  • Shorter lines that keep moving even at the morning rush

How Speed Increases Sales

More orders per hour

When each checkout is faster, you can serve more guests in the same time window.

Fewer walkaways

Shorter lines mean fewer people abandon the queue during busy periods or bad weather.

Higher average ticket

With quick, on screen prompts, staff can suggest size upgrades or pastry add ons without slowing the line.

Capture impulse buys

Pop up a small display with limited bakes or a seasonal drink and close the sale right where guests stand.
