Common questions

Frequently asked questions

How fast is approval?

2-Minute Instant Boarding: Move through identity verification and start accepting payments in as little as two minutes.

Can I run tabs across multiple servers without double-charging?

Multi-server tab handling is a standard restaurant workflow, not an edge case — supported POS integrations are built to keep tabs, tips, and splits tied to the right server and the right table, so a busy Friday doesn’t turn into a reconciliation headache.
