PayPal Unleashes a Fresh Sleek POS for the Food & Drink Scene
Hey foodies and serving folks! PayPal’s new iZettle Food & Drink has just dropped, and it’s waving a bright, friendly hell‑yeah at cafés, pubs, and restaurants that are itching to bounce back from lockdown. It’s like a super‑charged, plug‑and‑play version of a POS that’s got all the extras you actually need to keep the cash flowing and the customers smiling.
What’s Inside the Package?
- Intuitive product library – find your menu items faster than you find a good meme.
- Smooth checkout flow – no hiccups, just clicks and sales.
- Customisable layouts – make the screen look exactly how you want it.
- Rapid onboard‑time for staff – new hires can start and earn in minutes.
And that’s just the start. This tool is especially primed for those who are still juggling the “new normal” vibes after COVID‑19 hit the UK hospitality market hard. Remember the 87% sales dip from April to June? That sucked up almost Ô30 bn in revenue. Time to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Behind the Curtain: How It Works
- Remote Payments – slip a payment link via SMS, WhatsApp, or email, so you get money in your pocket without the customer having to step on the counter.
- Bulk Product Actions – tweak tax rates en‑mass, particularly handy as VAT shimmy policies shift.
- Integrated Delivery – keep track of dine‑in, takeaway, and delivery orders all in one handy spot.
Real‑World Praise
Shaun McCarron, co‑owner of The Little Chartroom in Edinburgh, gave a thumbs up after testing the new setup:
“iZettle Food & Drink helped us get our second location up and running fast. Contactless and remote payments are now a must for any business. It’s reliable and gives us the insight we need to navigate the new normal.”
Word From the Top
Jacob de Geer, Vice President of Small Business Products at iZettle, said:
“In today’s landscape, businesses of all sizes must stay nimble to keep up with customers and tech demands, pulling sales from online, in‑app, and in‑store channels in one place. We’re thrilled to launch iZettle Food & Drink and empower small businesses across the UK to serve better and grow faster.”
So, if you’re looking to revive your row‑dk bar, cozy café, or bustling bistro, swing by and give iZettle Food & Drink a spin. It’s the ultimate sidekick for the next generation of hospitality.”
