Cloudbeds POS turns an iPad or iPhone into a full point of sale for your property's restaurant, bar, café or room service built by Cloudbeds, so it talks directly to the folios your front desk already manages. TAKE ORDERS ANYWHERE Work from a floor plan of your real tables and sections, or start a quick order at the counter. Browse your menu by category, search by name or SKU, and add modifiers, notes and per-item discounts as you go. Send courses to the kitchen or bar when you're ready. TAKE PAYMENTS YOUR WAY Charge to a guest's folio or house account, take card payments on a compatible reader or with Tap to Pay, or send a Pay by Link QR code for guests to settle on their own phone. Apply order-level service charges and see them itemized on the bill. CHARGE IT TO THE ROOM Post a check straight to an in-house guest's folio or to a house account, so it settles at checkout with everything else. Search by guest name, room number or group event — no re-keying, no paper chits walking to the front desk. SPLIT BILLS WITHOUT THE ARITHMETIC Split evenly across any number of guests, or by item. Take part-payments in sequence and the order stays open until it's fully settled. Add tips and tax IDs where you need them. BUILT FOR A REAL SERVICE Orders keep working when the Wi-Fi doesn't. Everything you do offline is queued and synced the moment you reconnect, so a dead spot in the garden doesn't stop service. RUN YOUR FLOOR Track every order by status, filter to just your own, and transfer tables to another server at shift change. Print or send receipts. Switch between outlets without signing out. MADE FOR PROPERTIES Staff sign in with a PIN on a shared device. Prices, taxes and currency come from your property settings, so the numbers match the rest of Cloudbeds. Cloudbeds POS requires a Cloudbeds account.
