Why Pisteo
Guests who order at their own pace spend more
When diners can scroll back for the wine pairing or add a dessert after the main without waiting, the average tab grows. Studies across Square, Toast, and Deloitte consistently put the lift at 15–25% per visit with digital self-ordering. The second drink is one tap away, not a flag to a busy server.
Square Restaurant Industry Report, 2023
Every order taken by a machine is margin back in your pocket
Labor runs 30–35% of restaurant revenue on average. When one server runs plates while ten tables order in parallel, the payment queue at closing disappears. The same team handles more covers without a Friday-night card-terminal bottleneck.

The easiest new customer is the one who came last month
Returning guests spend 67% more than first-time visitors — and the only channel that brings them back is one you own. Opt-in emails captured at checkout live in your marketing module. The next visit is something you can prompt, not something you hope for.
