FAQ
What's the best POS for a Singapore cafe in 2026?
For a single cafe under 200 covers a day, Qashier or LOOP POS Free cover the basics. For a 2+ outlet cafe chain in Singapore, LOOP POS wins on AI commands, a unified aggregator queue and daily P&L — features Qashier and EPOS don't bundle at the same price.
Does LOOP POS support PayNow and NETS QR?
Yes — both via dynamic per-ticket QR. Settlement reconciles automatically against the ticket so cashiers never type a reference number.
How long does migration from EPOS or Qashier take?
Median 9 working days for a 3-outlet Singapore chain across the outlets we migrated: menu and recipe import, hardware, staff onboarding and two parallel-run weekends.
Which delivery aggregators does LOOP POS integrate with in Singapore?
foodpanda, Deliveroo and GrabFood — all into one unified kitchen queue, with per-platform commission reconciliation.
