The register
Ring up with photos and categories, discount a line or the whole bill, take cash or charge to a room, and print. Receipts number themselves per till.

What it does
One system from the order to the end of day
Tables & QR ordering
Open a table, add to it all evening and settle once. Guests can scan the table QR to order themselves.
Kitchen display
Orders reach the kitchen the moment they are sent, with every size and add-on spelled out. Any spare Android tablet becomes the screen.
Menu & catalogue
Items with photos, categories, sizes and add-ons, each with its own price and tax. Type your menu in or mirror it from NIO Books.
Staff & tills
Everyone signs in with a PIN, so every sale has a name on it. Cashier, waiter, kitchen and manager each see only their own screens.
End of day
Close the day and the takings post to NIO Books as a journal, exactly once. Or run NIO POS on its own with nothing connected.
Built for the Maldives
A café on an island is also half a hotel
GST that adds up
Tax sits on each item and is charged on the discounted amount, so totals always reconcile.
Charge it to the room
Confirm the room and guest name and the charge goes on their folio for the front desk to settle.
Your property system
Posts room charges to Opera Cloud, Mews, Cloudbeds or eZee Absolute, or keeps the folio itself.

When the connection drops the register keeps going, and nothing is entered twice when it comes back.
