How it works

Set up once in under an hour. Your guests are ordering that same evening.

How Pisteo works

Four steps, two views per step: your guest's and yours. Same moment, two angles.

01

Guest orders, you see it

Diner phone: Guest scans the table QR, builds a tab on their own phone, and hits Send.

Why Pisteo

+25% Bigger average ticket with self-ordering

Guests who order at their own pace order more

When the US fast-casual chain PDQ added self-ordering kiosks, its average ticket grew by 25% and about one guest in five took an upsell offer. Your results will vary, but the mechanism is simple: the second drink is one tap away, not a wave at a busy server.

36.5% Of sales goes to labour

Every order a guest places themselves frees up staff time

In 2024 the median US full-service restaurant spent 36.5% of sales on salaries, wages and benefits (limited-service: 31.7%), well above historical levels. When ten tables order in parallel and pay at the table, the same team handles more covers.

60% Of restaurant revenue comes from repeat guests

The easiest new customer is the one who came last month

Olo’s data from more than 100 million guest records shows repeat guests drive 60% of restaurant revenue. Opt-in emails captured at checkout live in your own marketing module, so the next visit is something you can prompt, not just hope for.
