Square's restaurants page describes a customizable Square Kiosk for in-store self ordering, integration with delivery partners such as Uber Eats and DoorDash, auto 86 and item counts to prevent overselling, and automatic order-ready texts. The pricing page describes an orders tab that manages on-premise and online orders including delivery partner sites, automatic order numbers and a loyalty program with custom points and rewards.
Square's quick service page describes combos, value meals and secret menus. Square for Drive-thru describes running the lane from speaker to window, knowing which order belongs to which car, and using order entry and service time data to set staffing. Outdoor menu boards come through Square's partner, The Howard Company.
The Kiosk app is $50 a month per device on Square Plus and $30 on Premium, and the kitchen display app $30 or $20; neither is available on Square Free. Kiosk hardware is separate.
NCR's Aloha page describes managing menus centrally across the in-store POS, online ordering, digital signage and third-party delivery, which is the reason a chain with many units runs it. National Computer Corporation's quick service page also lists drive-thru, kiosks, kitchen display and delivery integrations.
