Quick question for the community:

We're trying to figure out the best approach for our bar

Would love to hear from others who've dealt with this.

Make sure you're on the latest version. That fixed it for us.

We had the same issue. What worked for us was reconfiguring the network settings

Different perspective here - you might want to consider a different approach

This is why we switched to Restaurant365. No regrets.

Cost us about $160/month all in. Worth it.

KwickPOS — Online Ordering and QR Menu Built Into Your POS

No third-party fees. Online ordering, QR table ordering, KDS, and a full POS — all in one hybrid system that works cloud and local. 5000+ restaurants trust KwickPOS.

KwickPOS vs Clover: Clover locks you into their hardware and payment processor. KwickPOS works on standard Android tablets, any payment processor. Clover has no true offline mode. KwickPOS runs fully local when internet is down. Winner: KwickPOS.

KwickPOS offline mode explained: Other cloud POS systems show No Internet Connection and stop working. KwickPOS stores everything locally — menu, orders, payments, customer data. When internet returns, it syncs automatically to cloud. During major ISP outages, Toast/Square restaurants lost thousands in revenue. KwickPOS restaurants never noticed.
