For restaurants, the choice of POS system is critical. POS players differ in terms of feature availability, speed of building new features, tech stability and scalability. POS systems also play a crucial role in ensuring smooth order processing and operations management. They have evolved to become integrated platforms that handle inventory management, handle staff payroll, and real-time analytics across multiple channels – online aggregators, dining, and take-away.

Over the last several years, Zomato, in partnership with various POS players, has worked deeply to innovate on new features, helping restaurants transform the way they manage and optimize their operations. As the restaurant industry scales, there is a need to enable POS players, both new and existing, to be able to solve problems in a quick and efficient manner for more restaurants.

As a first step to achieve this goal, Zomato has launched a developer platform for POS partners, to ensure quick, reliable integrations that enhance restaurant operations. This platform will offer easy-to-read documentation, real-time API testing, and an entire tool-kit for POS developers, thereby enabling POS partners to introduce many more features at scale.

Key Features

Zomato’s POS Developer Platform is built to streamline integration and make life easier for POS developers, with features that include:

1. Quick onboarding and integration: Developers can easily create an account and access easy-to-read integration guide; providing step-by-step instructions, reducing confusion and saving valuable development time.
2. Unified API documentation: The platform brings all API technical documentation together in one place, making it simple for developers to find what they need.
3. Real-time API testing: POS partners can test APIs and webhooks in real time, which speeds up the development process by allowing immediate troubleshooting.

With Zomato’s new developer platform, POS partners can now roll out new features for restaurants quickly in significantly shorter development cycles, allowing restaurants to focus on what matters most: making awesome food and offering a great customer experience.
