Hey everyone,

ChowNow long-term review - the good and bad

I'm running a business in Detroit, MI and looking for advice. We currently have been looking at different options. Any recommendations or experiences to share?

Thanks in advance!

Check out the multi-terminal support setting, that might help.

The payment processing is definitely worth the extra cost IMO.
