The problem

Your stores grew. Your systems didn't.

Most POS systems are a single-store till that grew. Every new store adds more work at head office, until the system becomes the ceiling.

The old way
  • A price changes. Someone updates every till by hand, one store at a time. Hours of work that should take a minute.
  • POS, ordering app, loyalty and EFTPOS from four vendors. Four bills. Four logins. Four things that break.
  • You want to know what every store sold yesterday. You ring the managers and wait.
  • Head office and franchisees argue over two reports. Same stores. Different numbers.
  • Your POS was fine at three stores. At ten it's a full-time job. At twenty it's the ceiling on your growth.
  • Delivery app prices are a separate job. Miss one and the customer pays the wrong price.
With Shift8
  • Change a price once at head office. Every store updates.
  • POS, kiosk, ordering, loyalty and EFTPOS in one platform. One login.
  • See what every store sold, without asking anyone.
  • Head office and franchisees look at the same numbers, from the same data.
  • Built for 2 stores or 200. Soul Origin joined on 6 and runs 168+.
  • Tills, app, web ordering and delivery partners update together.
From 1 October

You now wear the card fee on every sale, at every store.

Australian businesses can no longer pass card surcharges on to customers. That cost lands on you. If your POS provider bundles your payment processing, they take a cut of every payment. That cut used to be easy to ignore. Now it comes straight out of your margin.

Shift8 runs its own EFTPOS. What you pay for software and what you pay to process cards are two separate numbers. You can see both.

FAQ

Questions multi-site brands ask us

Card surcharges are gone. What does that mean for us?

From 1 October you can't pass card fees on to customers, so they come out of your margin. If your POS bundles payment processing, you're paying a cut of every sale.

Shift8 runs its own EFTPOS. Software and card processing are two separate numbers you can see. Bring your current statement to the call and we'll run your rate against ours.

We're on another POS. How hard is it to switch?

Bring your current setup to the call: your store count, your hardware and what you run today. We'll show you what the move looks like for your network and what carries over.

How is this different from the POS we already have?

Most POS systems are a single-store till that grew. Shift8 was built for multi-site food brands from the start.

So menus, pricing and inventory for your whole network are run from one place, not set up store by store.

We roll out a price change. What actually happens?

Head office makes the change once. It rolls out to your tills, your app, your web ordering and your delivery partners. Whether that's 2 stores or 200.

We run several brands. Can Shift8 handle that?

Yes. That's what it was built for. Reporting rolls up across regions, brands and stores. Brand standards are set per brand, so one head office can run several banners on one system.

What hardware do we need?

S8pos runs on iPad or Windows. Kiosks run on Android kiosk hardware or iPad. Loyalty works on iOS, Android, web and physical cards.

Will it work with the systems we already run?

It connects to accounting, supply chain and the delivery apps. Orders and numbers flow through, so nobody rekeys them.

What does it cost?

It depends on your store count and which parts of the platform you run. You'll get a real number on the call, plus what the rollout looks like.

15 minutes. A live demo, not a slide deck.
