Restaurant payments built into the platform — and the device comes from us

In most restaurants, payments are a bolt-on. The POS is one vendor, the processor is another, and the two are wired together with an integration that breaks at the worst possible moment. Reconciliation becomes a daily chore: this report says one number, that one says another, and someone has to figure out why before the deposit makes sense.

Opero makes payments part of the operating system instead of an add-on. The platform that rings in the order also takes the payment and matches it back to that exact order automatically. And the part that has to be secure and certified — the card payment device — comes from us. You bring the tablet, we bring the payment device.

What "you bring the tablet, we bring the payment device" means

It's a clean split of responsibilities. The screen your staff taps on is a tablet you already own — an iPad or Android tablet, as many as you need. The device that reads the card is provided and pre-configured by us. You don't source a reader, you don't get it certified, and you don't pay per device to add another lane, register, or handheld.

• ✓Run unlimited POS terminals, kiosks, and handhelds on your own tablets
• ✓The card payment device is provided and ready to take payments
• ✓No per-device fee to add a station, a kiosk, or a server handheld
• ✓Take payments anywhere service happens — counter, table, patio, or pickup window

Every payment lands on the right order

Because payments live on the same spine as the POS, kiosk, and QR ordering, every charge is tied to the order it paid for — no manual matching, no orphaned transactions. Tips, refunds, and voids all stay attached to the original ticket. At close, the totals reconcile themselves.

Transparent pricing, set for your account

Processing pricing scales with how you run — your volume and how you take payments. Instead of a one-size headline rate, your rate is set for your account and shown in your merchant agreement, with interchange and network assessments included. The honest answer to "what's the rate?" is: it depends on your business, and we'll quote it for you.

What stays constant across every plan: devices are never a line item. Refunds and voids don't carry an extra platform fee. And subscription pricing is per location, billed separately from processing — so you always know which bill is which.

Payments that move at the speed of service

Guests pay at the table over QR, at the counter on a kiosk, or on a handheld a server carries — and it's all the same payments layer underneath. That means consistent receipts, consistent reporting, and one place to look when you need to find a transaction. No swivel-chair between a POS report and a separate processor dashboard.

• ✓In-person card payments on your provided device
• ✓Pay-at-table over QR and self-checkout at the kiosk
• ✓Online and pickup payments tied to the same order spine
• ✓Settlement on a next-business-day standard schedule

The bottom line

Restaurant payments shouldn't be a second system you babysit. Build them into the platform that already runs your floor, let us provide the payment device, and let every charge match itself to the order. You bring the tablet, we bring the payment device — and reconciliation stops being a daily fight.
