Zonal's iServe turns any Apple mobile device into a hand-held terminal that can be used from anywhere within a venue

EPoS provider Zonal has added a new app to its range of products and services that can turn any Apple mobile device into a hand-held payment terminal.

Product details:

The Aztec iServe is an application that can turn any Apple mobile device, including an iPad and iPod Touch, into a portable EPoS system.

Compatible with the Zonal Connect platform, the Aztec iServe enables waiting staff to take orders and process payments from anywhere within their venue. It can also give the front-of-house team access to live stock, pricing and promotions data, as they would have with any other till and is the first major project to be developed with TXD, Zonal’s digital marketing agency.

USP:

“The Aztec iServe solution delivers a slick user experience for staff so they can take orders, process payments and provide better service to customers anywhere in the venue," says Zonal managing director Stuart McLean. "By reducing the time it takes to place an order and cutting down on excessive waiting for customers, Aztec iServe will not only deliver business efficiencies but trials show that it can also significantly increase revenue in busy venues."

Cost:

Dependent on a range of factors.

Why you should buy it:

McLean says the product's simplicity yet ability to transform existing devices into portable tills, could have 'big benefits' for operators. “The use of iOS devices as mobile tills supplies big benefits in terms of cost, portability and a greater range of functionality," he said. "In addition, we’ve seen the benefits of working with an operating system that’s so user-friendly that staff training is minimal; Aztec iServe works in such an intuitive way that users can pick up the device and get started almost immediately.”
