Ziosk's tablets let guests order and play games. For venues that want tabletop entertainment, it's a proven solution.
Ziosk has deployed across major chains like Olive Garden and Chili's. Their enterprise infrastructure is battle-tested.
The tablet screen is a built-in upsell channel — dessert prompts, drink specials, loyalty signups.
No tablets that break, glitch, or need resetting mid-shift. No gross, sticky screens your servers have to wipe down. Just a QR code on the check they already print.
Ziosk splits a check 2 ways. TabSettle lets 12 people claim individual items, split shared plates, and pay simultaneously from their own phones.
Direct API integrations with Square and Clover. Built-in OCR for everything else. Ziosk requires proprietary hardware tied to specific systems.
No 5-year contracts. No upfront costs. Flat monthly subscription — no per-transaction fees. Cancel anytime. Your restaurant keeps full control.
It's Friday night. A party of 10 just finished dinner. The server runs the tablet to the table. Two guests can split at a time — so five rounds of splits, each taking 2–3 minutes. The table sits occupied for 15+ minutes just paying. Meanwhile, the hostess has a line out the door and nowhere to seat them.
The server drops the check with a QR code. All 10 guests scan from their seats. They claim their items, split the shared appetizers, and pay — all at once. Table cleared in 90 seconds. The next party is seated before the dishes hit the kitchen.
