Why UK Restaurants Are Looking Beyond Square for Restaurants
Square for Restaurants is a popular POS solution for taking orders and processing payments, but many restaurants eventually need additional software for customer relationship management, loyalty programmes, marketing automation and online ordering.
Instead of paying for multiple subscriptions and integrations, ONAP FoodTech brings your restaurant operations, customer engagement and marketing together in one cloud-based platform designed to help increase repeat business and customer lifetime value.
