Labor is one of the most controllable costs business owners have. With the right visibility, managers know when to prepare for an influx of orders, and conversely, when to reduce purchases and related inventory levels. Having proper insights into the operation allows managers to properly staff and control labor costs.
In addition to these reporting features, modern restaurant point of sale technology provides a means to nimbly manage expenses based on the current needs of the business. By implementing digital services that include ordering, payments, and digital receipts, businesses become less reliant on physical labor. Additionally, these businesses reduce costs related to managing guest services such as printable receipts, legacy gift card, loyalty, and coupon programs. By going digital, restaurant information becomes readily available to operators in order to make important business decisions that protect the bottom line.
With Aldelo Express Cloud POS and Masa+ digital services, restaurants increase table turn rates by having guests place orders and make payments via a simple QR code scan from their smartphone. Ordering and payment capabilities in the customer’s hands means guests begin orders from their table, seat, outdoor picnic table, or lobbies, customizing their food and drinks with simple and complex menu item modifiers managed by restaurant owners to offset increased item costs. Reduced wait staff duties also means less pressure on existing employees, boosting morale and creating a more productive environment.

Guests using online ordering solutions then close orders by completing digital payments via native gift card, loyalty and rewards credit, as well as personal credit cards, and leave the restaurant with a digital receipt delivered via SMS text message, eliminating paper and maintenance costs for legacy printer systems.
With rising costs for maintaining restaurant staff, digital online ordering and payments helps restaurants navigate unpredictable time/meal periods by having a layer of technology in place that allows them to successfully navigate spikes in demand without scrambling to call in additional staff. When fully staffed, online ordering complements wait staff roles for increasing customer services levels by freeing employees to focus on welcoming guests, serving food, and fostering an enjoyable dining environment. So, as guests enjoy food and drinks via dine-in, takeout, and delivery, Aldelo Express and Masa+ seamlessly enable restaurants to run any-sized operations with improved operational efficiency, increased table turn rates, and fewer paid staff.
Aldelo Express and Masa+ native solutions help save businesses money by eliminating the need for third party digital solutions and resulting fees. Aldelo Express merchants provide guests access to digital online ordering and payment options via a secure digital wallet anytime, anywhere, from any browser-based device. Customers never have to buy, download, or update an app, but simply log into their Masa+ account from any phone, tablet, or computer to access menus and order items. Everything customers need is digitized and automatically updated, including their order history, Loyalty points, e-Gift Cards, and Rewards.
