The Best POS Systems in Singapore: A 2025 Guide for F&B Businesses

#rewardly #restaurant #cafe #cloudbased #pos

Singapore’s POS industry has transformed F&B operations by streamlining ordering, reducing labour dependency, improving kitchen coordination, and providing real-time insights that boost productivity. As manpower costs rise, digital tools such as QR ordering, integrated payments, and automated inventory have become essential for cafés and restaurants to operate efficiently.

To accelerate adoption, the Singapore government supports SMEs through the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) under the SMEs Go Digital programme, subsidising up to 50% of approved digital solutions, including POS systems. This financial support significantly lowers the barrier for F&B operators to digitalise, improve service standards, and stay competitive in a fast-changing market.

Why More Singapore Operators Choose Rewardly

A more straightforward way for café and restaurant owners to evaluate the right technology partner.

Singapore’s F&B environment is unique—fast-moving, operationally demanding, and shaped by specific compliance, payment, and landlord requirements. Operators often evaluate platforms such as Rewardly, Eats365, and Qashier, each offering distinct strengths for different business types.

This article provides a friendly, objective comparison to help merchants select the platform that best fits their workflow, scale, and long-term growth needs.

1. Background Snapshot of Each Platform

🇸🇬 Rewardly — Built in Singapore, Designed for Singapore Operators

Rewardly is a homegrown Commerce, Loyalty, and Payment platform explicitly designed for:

• Local tax rules (GST), mall GTO submissions, and landlord workflows

• Singapore payment culture (PayNow, SGQR, cards, e-wallets)

• Flexible operating models (dine-in, kiosk, QR ordering, multi-location)

Because Rewardly is Singapore-built, it remains closely aligned to the needs and feedback of local merchants. It focuses on reliability, ease of use, operational depth, and a uniquely strong loyalty + CRM suite.

Rewardly also offers:

• Hardware-agnostic deployment (iOS, Android, Windows, even Qashier hardware)

• Adyen partnership for unified payments + SoftPOS tap-to-pay—a capability neither Eats365 nor Qashier currently provides

• Blanket pricing that simplifies planning and offers approximately 50% lower total cost compared to stacked modular pricing models

🇭🇰 Eats365 — Enterprise-Grade Platform Built for Multi-Location Scalability

Eats365 is a Hong Kong-founded system with global presence across 32 markets. It is well-suited for:

• Multi-brand restaurant groups

🇸🇬 Qashier — Simple, Compact, and Friendly for Smaller Operators

Qashier focuses on:

• Compact hardware

• Straightforward workflows

• Fast deployment

• All-in-one design for first-time digital adopters

It is popular among cafés, kiosks, food trucks, and single-location restaurants due to its simplicity and approachable pricing tiers.

⭐ Kitchen Display System (KDS)

All three platforms offer real-time KDS functionality, order aging, color cues, and preparation tracking.

Where Rewardly stands out:

• Seamless dine-in + QR + kiosk + delivery routing

• Auto-expedite and preparation workflows

• Reliable performance optimized for Singapore peak periods

Where others shine:

• Eats365 offers profound enterprise station logic

• Qashier keeps setup simple and hardware-friendly

⭐ Queue Management

Rewardly provides a full suite:

• QR join queue

• POS-issued queue tickets

• Real-time queue display

• Auto table ready notifications

• Optional WhatsApp/SMS updates

Eats365 supports multi-method ticket issuance and display sync. Qashier focuses on lightweight queue displays for simpler setups.

⭐ Delivery Platforms: GrabFood & Foodpanda

All three platforms integrate with Singapore’s primary delivery services.

Rewardly’s unique angle:

• Stock-aware availability using ingredient-level deduction

• Unified menu + pricing rules across channels

• Real-time online/offline toggles

• Auto 86-ing of items across all platforms

This reduces overselling during peak hours and ensures operational integrity.

⭐ Multi-Channel Menu Management

Rewardly’s CommerceOS includes:

• Ingredient-level availability

• Time-based scheduling

• Price tiering

• Multi-brand management

• Seasonal & promotional menus

• Auto-sync across QR, kiosk, POS, and delivery

Eats365 also excels here with enterprise-grade controls. Qashier suits simpler single-store menus.

⭐ Loyalty, CRM & Marketing Campaigns — Rewardly’s Signature Advantage

This is the category where Rewardly stands head and shoulders above the rest.

Rewardly includes:

• Auto-tiered memberships

• Segmentation: frequency, recency, spend

• Campaigns: happy hour, voucher drops, birthday flows, retention triggers

• Coalition loyalty for group brands

• Integrated QR customer onboarding

• Unified customer identity across channels

Neither Eats365 nor Qashier offers an equivalent built-in loyalty ecosystem. Most rely on external partners, which adds cost and complexity.

For Singapore cafés and restaurants that depend heavily on repeat customers, Rewardly offers unmatched CRM and marketing depth.

Feature	Rewardly	Eats365	Qashier
Cards	✔	✔	✔
PayNow / SGQR	✔ Native	◯ via third-party	✔
