One transaction

Tickets and Popcorn, One Receipt

Your cashier toggles from tickets to the concession screen without starting over. Big graphic buttons, combos and barcode scanning keep the line short, and the guest pays once.

  • Graphic item buttons you design, with your own photos and categories.
  • Barcode scanning for candy, bottled drinks and retail items.
  • Combos and upsells built into the screen, so every cashier offers them.
Capabilities

Built for the Concession Stand

From a single popcorn counter to a busy grill, the tools your stand needs are already on the selling screen.

Combos & Upsells

Butter, no ice, extra cheese. Searchable modifier lists and special instructions travel with the order.

Tipping

Optional tip prompts on the customer-facing display and card readers, with suggested amounts and protection against excessive tips.

Guests redeem points, item credits and gift cards on concessions, tracked on the redemption reports.

Pay at Counter

Guests order in the app or online, then pay when they reach the stand.

Text When Ready

Capture a phone number with the order and text the guest the moment it's ready for pickup.

Customer-Facing Display

Guests watch their order build, add a tip on card payments, and see the gift card rewards they just earned.

Menu Management

Organize and merge categories cleanly, and keep every screen's layout up to date.

Quick service

Made to Order, Ready Before Showtime

For grills, pizza ovens and made-to-order menus. Quick service mode takes the order at the counter, sends every item where it's made, and tells the guest when it's ready.

  1. Step 1

    Order

    Taken at the counter, or placed online or in the app.

  2. Step 2

    Route

    Items go to the right kitchen printer, display or bar automatically.

  3. Step 3

    Prepare

    Staff work from kitchen displays with bump bars, in the right sequence.

  4. Step 4

    Hand off

    The pickup viewer shows what's ready, and guests get a text.

  • Prep-time aware pickup sets each order's ready time by its slowest item.
  • Showtime-locked pickups tie a concession order to the guest's showtime.
  • Quick service mode built for counter-style kitchens, no table service required.
  • Auto-complete at the station closes an order the moment its last item is done.
  • Order Manager shows every open order with special instructions, and can hide cancelled ones.
  • Kitchen Times report shows how long orders actually take, day by day.

  • Real-time stock updated with every sale, at every register, kiosk and app.
  • Recipe tracking down to the ounce for anything you make in-house.
  • Concession reporting by item, location and redemption, to spot what's selling and what's wasted.
