Collect payment for takeout orders (quick service)
When placing a takeout order using the Go Restaurant app on your tablet, you can collect payment by tapping Pay. Customers can use the connected payment terminal to enter a payment card and leave a tip. Customers can also pay by cash.
Note: The terminal must be connected as a peripheral to the tablet app in order to use card payments (debit, credit, gift). If the terminal is not connected, you can still take cash payments.
Note: In order to collect taxes as part of the customer payment, you must set up a tax profile.
Follow these steps to collect payment for takeout orders.
- After confirming the customer's order, tap Pay. The Payment screen appears.

- To apply a discount to the order, tap Discount. (If there is no discount, go to step 3).

- Enter a reason for the custom discount (if applicable).

- To split the cost of the order, tap Split Evenly. This allows two people to split the cost of an order. The amount due is divided by two. Each person can use a separate method of payment. The screen changes to show two receipts based on the two amounts owing.

- To split the bill further, for example, to split 3 ways or 4 ways, tap the plus sign (+) next to 2.
- Continue to the next step to allow each person to pay. For example, if 2 people are splitting the bill, each person's payment will be processed one after the other using his or her preferred method of payment.
