The complete POS system for Irish hospitality
A card machine alone is no longer enough. Modern hospitality businesses need a fully integrated point-of-sale system — one that handles orders, the kitchen, the back office, staff rotas, online orders, and reservations, all from one place.
LowerFees works with leading POS providers to find the right system for your venue — whether you're a single café or a multi-site restaurant group.
Restaurants
Table management, kitchen display, split bills, online orders.
Cafés
Fast counter service, loyalty, QR ordering, and online menus.
Bars & Pubs
Tab management, drink-to-kitchen routing, nightclub mode.
Food Trucks
Compact mobile POS, offline mode, fast checkout.
Hotels
Multi-outlet management across restaurant, bar, and room service.
Quick Service
Self-service kiosk, order display screens, speed-focused workflows.
