Ordering and Ordered
Ordering shows the round you’re adding. Ordered shows everything already sent, including rounds from other devices. Each has its own item count and total.
Point of Sale
In detail.
Orders, payments, table service and device settings, working together on one point of sale.
Build the order
Categories, products and the running order, all on one screen.
Products beside the order
Categories sit on the left, products in the middle and the order on the right. Staff can add products while keeping the order in view.
Edit an item
Change the quantity on the order line, or tap the item to reopen its options. Swipe to remove it, or use Remove. Quantities run from 1 to 99, so a round of 12 fits on one line.
A quick sale
Enter an amount on the handheld, then tap Charge to take a card payment. You don’t need to build an itemised order.
Serving sizes
Choose Half pint or 175ml, then tap the drink to use that size’s price. The size key resets after each drink.
Photos or plain tiles
Show your product photos, cropped to a consistent shape. Choose plain tiles to fit more products on screen, with a price on each tile.
Take the payment
Card, cash and tips, on whichever screen your staff are holding.
Card in one tap
Contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay or Google Pay on the handheld's built-in reader. The sale is recorded exactly once against the order, and the card scheme prints on the receipt.
Send to a handheld
The till has no built-in card reader. Tap Pay with card to send the amount to a free terminal. The till selects the only available terminal, or lets staff choose when several are free.
Cash with change
Enter the cash handed over, or use the exact-amount shortcut. The change stays on screen after confirmation. Cash received and change given both print on the receipt.
One bill per terminal
Each terminal takes one bill at a time. The till only sends bills to terminals at the same site. If no terminal accepts the bill, the till stops waiting and explains why.
Tips on the machine
The terminal records tips during payment, separately from your takings. They appear on their own line in the end-of-day report.
Manage table service
Live with selected venues now, rolling out wider. See the floor plan and every open tab on the full-size till.
Occupied and free tables
Occupied tables are green; free tables are white. Each tile shows the table name and seat count. Tap a table for its details.
Your floor plan
The till opens the floor plan you made in the back office. Tables keep their positions, shapes and angles, alongside bars, counters, stools, walls and doors. Fixtures appear in grey and cannot open a tab.
Every tab at once
See dine-in, bar and takeaway tabs together, with search, filters and a live count. Choose large tiles or a compact list.
Rooms and floors
Give each room, floor or terrace a named plan. Staff tap the tabs at the top to switch plans. Each till sees only its own site’s plans.
Bookings alongside
On a wide till, the floor plan takes around three quarters of the screen. Today’s bookings appear beside it in the remaining space.
Tab card layouts
Choose which details appear on each open-tab card and arrange them in the back office. Save layouts for different services and apply them across your tills.
Keep sales recorded when the connection drops
Keep orders available and sales records queued while the connection recovers.
Recorded once
Every retry carries the same reference from the moment the card is presented, and the database enforces it. A flaky connection cannot bill a customer twice.
Automatic upload retries
If a sale cannot upload first time, the device keeps trying on its own. It waits about 4 seconds, then backs off to at most every 32, until the queue is clear.
Unresolved payments
If a crash or flat battery stops the card reader returning a result, Tillable keeps the sale for review. It is flagged within 90 seconds against the shift when it happened.
The till carries on
If the connection drops, the till keeps its saved floor plan, open tabs and menu on screen. Staff can keep taking orders.
Rejected sales records
If the server rejects a sales record, it stays on the device and is flagged for review. Records from all six rejection types are retained.
Failed upload alerts
If a sales record fails to upload without a visible alert for your team, the record is kept and Tillable support is notified automatically.
Set up each device for its job
Choose from four operating modes and adjust the settings for each device.
Around 20 device settings
A device mode controls which screens and actions appear. Your counter till and restaurant till can run side by side with different settings.
Four operating modes
Every device ships with four ways to work: a standard counter, a bar with open tabs, a restaurant with tables and a connected pay-at-counter setup.
Behind a manager PIN
Require a manager PIN to open the cash drawer, pause the kitchen, view reports or print from the till’s top bar. Tillable checks the PIN against the server; it is not stored on the device.
Shared device settings
Change a mode in the back office and your devices receive it automatically. You don’t need to restart or pair them again.
Your idle screen
Choose a photo, animation, video or web page for the idle screen. The first touch returns staff to where they left off.

Questions and answers.
Can the counter and handheld use the same software?
Yes. Both run Tillable point of sale, with layouts for their screen sizes and modes for counter, bar, restaurant and connected payments.
Does the full-size till take cards?
It sends the amount to a terminal at the same site. The full-size till has no built-in card reader.
Can I take card payments without the internet?
Card payments need a working connection. The handheld can use mobile data if your site’s network fails. Sales records wait on the device to upload.
Can I use Tillable for an online shop too?
Yes. Tillable Online Shop connects to your point of sale. Customers can browse and buy from their phone or computer.
Can I bring my existing products across?
You can import products from a spreadsheet in the back office. Tillable shows what will be created before you save.
