Who it is for
Quick-service and fast-casual restaurant chains
Kiosks, drive-thru, mobile ordering and POS all managed from one back office, so menus and prices change across every order point at once.
Food-service management operators
Positioned to help serve high volumes of people quickly with self-order kiosks, mobile ordering, POS and order management.
Convenience stores selling prepared food
Guests order prepared food in store or by phone instead of using a take-a-number system.
What it does
Self-order kiosks
Guest-facing kiosks with Intelligent Upsell prompts, calorie and dietary information, and order history lookup by phone number or credit card.
Touchscreen drive-thru
Guests place and pay for orders on a touchscreen, with Past Order Recall; the vendor says these orders are about 15 percent higher.
Mobile ordering
Mobile ordering mirrors the kiosk design so the brand looks the same on phones and in store.

Order management
Shows open, closed and future orders from the POS, kiosks, mobile and drive-thru, with real-time order display and colour-coded performance indicators.
Digital menu boards and order status monitors
Menu boards to promote specials and monitors that tell guests when orders are ready.
myNextep back office
