STServiceTill

The till that knows the table.

ServiceTill runs the floor, the kitchen, the bar and the bill. It already knows who's booked, who's ordered and who's waiting, because it talks to Call the Desk and Tableside instead of making you type things twice.

Works on any tablet or laptop. Every venue gets its own login at its own address.

Built around the table, not the transaction.

Most tills are a calculator with a menu bolted on. ServiceTill starts from what a floor team actually needs to know: who has just sat down, who's waiting on a food order, whose food is dying at the pass, and how long each of those has been true.

A floor map that tells you what to do next

Every table is coloured by its phase and shows how long it's been there. The little pills underneath are minutes spent in each step: greet, order, kitchen, run. Go over target and the table gets a ring.

  • Seated, drinks taken, food ordered, food ready, eating
  • Timestamps come from the handheld, so nobody has to tap "drinks taken"
  • Targets are yours to set: greet in 3, order in 12, kitchen in 20, run in 3

A bill that splits however the table wants

Evenly, by seat, by item, or a bottle shared between two. Guests can scan a code and pay their own share on their phone, with the service charge clearly optional and tips going to the team.

  • Card, cash, pay at table, gift card, or post it to a hotel room
  • Removing service needs a manager's PIN, and the reason goes on the report
  • Proper VAT receipts, printed or emailed

Kitchen and bar screens that colour by age

Tickets arrive from the handhelds and the till. They turn amber as they get old and red when they're over target, courses hold until you fire them, and an allergy flag follows the table through every course.

  • All-day counts across the top so the grill knows what's coming
  • Bar screen batches the same drinks across tables
  • If a screen goes quiet, the ticket prints instead

Works with the apps you already run.

ServiceTill sits in the middle of the night. Bookings come in from Call the Desk, orders come in from Tableside, and everything they need goes back out. You link each app with a key, so each one keeps its own login.

Every venue gets its own till.

When you sign up, your venue gets its own address and its own login. Nothing is shared between venues: not staff, not menus, not reports. Run two places and you have two logins; a group can hold several under one owner.

Your Call the Desk and Tableside logins stay separate too. You connect them from inside ServiceTill with a key, and you can disconnect them the same way.

Questions people ask first.

Short answers. For anything else, email and a person replies.

Do I need Call the Desk or Tableside to use it?

No. ServiceTill works on its own with its own floor map, order screen and kitchen screens. The links are there when you want them: connect either app and the floor map, bookings and handheld orders start flowing without any extra typing.

What hardware does it run on?

Any tablet or laptop with a browser for the till, any screen for the kitchen and bar, a thermal printer for receipts and tickets, and a card reader. It's built to keep working when the internet drops, on the local network.

Who handles the card payments?

A card processor of your choosing, connected from Settings. Card processing is charged at the processor's rate; ServiceTill doesn't add a cut on top. [CONFIRM PROCESSOR AND RATE]

Is the service charge really optional for guests?

Yes, and it says so on the bill, the customer display and the guest's phone. Removing it at the till needs a manager, and the reason is recorded, so you can see where service is being dropped and why.

Can staff share a login?

Each person clocks in with their own PIN, so sales, tips, voids and hours are theirs. The venue owner's login is separate from staff PINs and is the only one that can see payroll and reports.

Start a venue in a minute.

Name the place, pick an address, add the first login. The floor map is empty until the first table sits down.
