POS systems and booking software for your business
Bring reservations, check-in, sales, and payments together with EPOS Bookings. Choose tools for your operation, from scheduled activities and table service to inventory management, memberships, and equipment rental.
Software modules, hardware and payment services depend on your chosen plan and configuration.
Online booking, ticketing and visitor arrivals
Let customers plan their visit online and give staff the tools to manage the day. Connect bookable activities, session availability, arrival checks and the extras your venue offers.
Demonstration calendar and check-in screens. Dates, availability, prices and admission checks depend on configuration.
Online bookings and calendars
Let customers choose an activity, attendee categories and available dates or sessions through your website. Staff can also make bookings from the POS calendar.
Capacity and session availability
Set guest and booking-count limits for timed activities. Review remaining booking availability separately from physical venue occupancy.
Party and group bookings
Set minimum and maximum group sizes and prices for attendee categories. Offer configured table, product, or equipment rental options alongside the booking.
Booking-based admission
Sell places for configured activities and timed sessions, then use the booking record to manage attendance and booking-based arrival checks.
Check-in and digital waivers
Find a booking by reference or QR code and check timing, payment and required waiver completion before admission. Collect signatures for activities that require them.
Session colors and announcements
Configure named slot colors and voice announcements before activity sessions end. Confirm the voice service and audio-output setup for your venue.
Appointment requirements
Tell us about the service, staff and resource scheduling you need. A dedicated appointment workflow requires confirmation in a demonstration.
Required waivers use an identified-attendee booking journey. Guest checkout is available only for activities configured without required waivers.
EPOS software for counter sales, table service and kitchen orders
Use the sales channels that suit your venue, with products and categories shared across the configured POS, booking, kiosk and table-ordering journeys.
POS sales and open orders
Browse products, scan barcodes and build a sale. Add items to eligible open orders and collect payments using the methods enabled for your venue.
Table management and reservations
Arrange a visual table plan, set capacities and reservation durations, and allocate available tables to customers or bookings.
QR code table ordering
Let customers open a table-linked menu and place an order. Send eligible preparation items to the configured kitchen display.
Kitchen display software
Give the kitchen a view of preparation tickets and item status. Release eligible activity-linked orders at check-in and track preparation through completion.
Self-service kiosks
Offer configured activity purchases, booking check-in and product or hire journeys on a self-service kiosk. Choose the routes that suit your venue.
Product and menu management
Organize products into categories, maintain prices and images, and control availability for the relevant location and sales channels.
Stock management, purchasing, equipment rental and reporting
Keep the operational work behind each visit connected to your sales and bookings.
Inventory control and counts
Track stocked products, record inventory adjustments and compare physical counts with recorded quantities. Review low-stock thresholds and movement history.
Suppliers and purchase orders
Maintain supplier records, group products to reorder, create purchase orders and record received goods against inventory.
Equipment rental
Offer hourly or daily rentals and track equipment issued, returned, or lost, as well as rental extensions. A standalone rental requires a customer account.
Orders and outstanding balances
Find bookings and sales in one order view. Follow visit status, part-paid orders and remaining balances so staff can see what needs attention.
EPOS reporting and dashboard
Review sales, bookings, attendance, payments and stock for the period you choose. Follow daily operational alerts and export the available reports.
Customer accounts, memberships and loyalty
Build repeat visits around the customer information, benefits and communications your business uses.
Customer accounts and visit history
Find customer details alongside related bookings, orders, memberships and loyalty information. Invite customers to register for an account.
Membership management
Create free or paid memberships with eligible activity and product benefits. Recurring paid plans require billing setup and a connected GoCardless account.
Loyalty points and rewards
Set earning rules, choose how eligible points can be redeemed and review the history of awards and adjustments.
Email campaigns and customer occasions
Send campaigns to eligible subscribers and configure birthday or milestone emails. Respect opt-outs and suppression settings throughout.
Booking emails and post-visit reviews
Send configured booking confirmations, invitations and financial documents. Collect feedback through the review journey for eligible completed bookings.
Manage locations, staff access and your chosen setup
Configure the system around your venues and the people who use it.
Multiple locations
Maintain location-specific activities, sales channels, capacity and operating settings. View the relevant venue’s operational information.

Available functions depend on your plan, staff permissions and configuration. We will confirm the modules, devices and services included in your proposed setup.
Payment solutions for online bookings and on-site sales
Choose the payment services that fit how your customers book and buy. Available methods depend on your provider, merchant account and device configuration.
Online and counter payments
Take payment through the configured online booking gateway or supported POS payment methods, including a compatible connected terminal where enabled.
Partial payments and refunds
Accept less than the full balance where the workflow allows, track the amount still due and process eligible full or partial refunds.

Questions about choosing EPOS and booking software
Can I choose only the modules my business needs?
Yes. We can discuss the relevant booking, sales and management tools for your venue. Confirm the modules, hardware, payment services and configuration included in your plan and quotation.
Can the booking software work with my website?
The booking widget can run as a customer booking journey or be embedded in a website that permits it. Its available locations, activities, imagery and booking steps depend on your configuration.
Can customers book without creating an account?
Guest checkout is available for activities configured to allow it. Activities requiring waivers must use the identified-attendee journey, with guest checkout disabled so the required details and signatures can be collected.
Can we use our existing EPOS hardware?
Tell us the models and connections you use. Compatibility needs to be checked against the software, connector and payment-provider configuration before existing equipment is confirmed for your setup.
Can I see the system working for my type of business?
Request a demonstration and tell us what you book, sell and hire out. We can show the relevant workflows and discuss any specialist requirements before you choose a setup.
