for Pop-Up and Temporary Bar Operations

​Extend Your Brick-and-Mortar Restaurant POS to Remote Locations and Events

3-minute read ---
​

A pop-up restaurant is a temporary dining establishment that operates for a limited time in a temporary location. As the busy summer season approaches, many brick-and-mortar restaurants are using pop-up restaurants to extend their restaurant services into their local community at events such as fairs, street fests, sporting events, and farmers markets. Pop-up restaurants are becoming increasingly popular as they allow chefs to experiment with new menu items and concepts, and they offer customers a unique dining experience in non-traditional environments. However, running a pop-up and temporary bar operation can be challenging, especially when it comes to managing orders, inventory, and payments. That's where Aldelo Express comes in – a powerful point-of-sale (POS) system that can benefit pop-up restaurant locations in several ways.

Here are seven ways Aldelo Express can help your pop-up and temporary bar operation:

Pro Tips: Thrive in the World of Payments ​with QR Codes​
Improve Payment Experiences for Both Staff and Customers

2-minute read ---
​

QR codes have revolutionized the way customers make payments, making the process much more convenient and efficient. A QR code is a two-dimensional barcode that can be read by a smartphone camera, and it contains information about a particular product or service. In the world of payments, QR codes are a great way to facilitate transactions between customers and merchants.

For restaurants with an Aldelo Express POS system, using Masa+ QR codes means customers never have to worry about forgetting a credit card, gift card, loyalty card, or printed coupon. Because Masa+ QR codes are cloud-based and accessible through a secure customer login, Masa+ QR Codes provide customers with better security than physical or printed payment methods that can be lost, damaged, or stolen.

Top 5 Reasons Food Trucks Need Aldelo Express POS

​

Operating a food truck is an exciting but challenging adventure. Unlike brick-and-mortar operations, owning a food truck means going to where your customers are and building a customer base across multiple physical locations.

Here are the top 5 reasons why food trucks need Aldelo Express POS:

5. Mobility

The best thing about food trucks is their mobility. But mobility is also one of the most challenging aspects of running a food truck.

Aldelo Express POS offers an all-in-one mobile POS software solution to support fast order entry and digital payments from anywhere with a Wi-Fi or Cellular Data connection, allowing the POS system to roam with the truck.

Streamline In-Person Transactions with Masa+ Fast Pay

1-minute read ---
​

Use of QR code-based digital payments has steadily grown across the restaurant point of sale industry. QR code-based e-Gift Cards, Rewards programs, and payment options eliminate the need for printing physical cards, prevent customers from losing physical gift cards, and avoid loss of funds due physical gift or reward card damage.

When customers select the “Pay” icon in the top right corner of the Masa+ mobile version and app, indicated by a “$” character, the QR code-based Masa+ Fast Pay feature locates and organizes applicable e-Gift and Rewards point values for a specific merchant in seconds.

​Masa+ Fast Pay then displays a single-use QR code within the customer's Masa+ wallet that consolidates available e-Gift or Rewards values based on the customer’s selection. Once restaurant staff scan the QR code with an Aldelo Express tablet POS device, the Aldelo Express POS system will then automatically locate the proper gift card or rewards credits to use to complete the transaction. Masa+ Fast Pay also supports secure QR code-based digital payments using personal credit cards. Customers may use a combination of e-Gift, Rewards and/or credit cards to pay the total bill amount.

Aldelo Introduces AI Technology to its Cloud Point of Sale Solution​

2-minute read ---
From early adoption of point of sale touch screens, QR code-based system linking and setup, and facial AI recognition-based security, Aldelo has long served everyday business owners with innovative technology solutions for their food service operation. Today, Aldelo continues to lead the restaurant point of sale industry by incorporating AI-based technology into the Aldelo Express Cloud POS back-office environment.

The newly released Aldelo Express AI-Based Menu Item Completion feature speeds up the menu creation process for food service operators. As artificial intelligence (AI) technology continues to be developed, the new Aldelo Express AI-Based Menu Item Completion feature is one of the first uses of AI technology made specifically available to benefit everyday restaurant owners.

How it Works

Much like a search engine auto-complete function, instead of manually typing the full name of every menu item during the menu creation process, the Aldelo Express AI-Based Menu Item Completion feature uses AI technology to detect the word being typed and present several menu item naming options for operators to choose from.

​This means that operators spend less time building and editing their restaurant’s menu and more time focusing on the day-to-day needs of their operation.

In the current point of sale market, a common sales scheme is enticing new customers with “free POS hardware.” But in addition to tying up the actual hardware costs into credit card processing rates, system fees, or add-on module fees, these providers typically limit their POS system to a specified number of terminals, forcing merchants to pay for the additional stations they need to grow their business.
