How AI is used

SpotOn is a point-of-sale (POS) platform that combines hardware and software to handle transactions and business operations. It is designed for various small business types, including restaurants, retail shops, and professional services such as automotive or health and beauty providers.

The software supports front-of-house tasks like payment processing and reservation management, as well as back-of-house functions such as scheduling and payroll preparation. For restaurants, it includes tools for kitchen displays and online ordering.

Buyers should confirm that the system uses proprietary hardware; the vendor states that users cannot use their own tablets or POS devices. Pricing plans vary in how they handle software and hardware costs, which may affect upfront expenses.
