Restaurant tab management & tip adjustments
Managing open tabs shouldn't slow down your staff or create extra work at the end of the night. Whether you're running a bar, restaurant, brewery, or café, your team needs to open tabs quickly, split checks easily, and process tips accurately.
SuperSonic POS simplifies tab management, pre-authorizations, split checks, and tip adjustments so your staff can focus on serving customers while your business stays organized.
Service should not stall at close-out
Busy shifts bring open tabs, split checks, late-night tip adjustments, and constant movement between tables and bartenders. When your POS can't keep up, service slows down and closing takes longer than it should.
SuperSonic POS is built for the way bars and restaurants actually operate, helping your team manage tabs, process payments, and close checks without slowing down service.
Spend less time working the POS.
Spend more time serving customers.
Open tabs built for real service
Opening and managing tabs should feel simple, even during your busiest shifts.
SuperSonic POS lets your staff open tabs with a pre-authorized payment, assign them to a guest or table, and continue adding items throughout service. Tabs update instantly across every connected terminal so everyone stays on the same page.
Tip adjustments made simple
Tip adjustments are a normal part of restaurant and bar service. Your POS should make them easy to manage.
SuperSonic securely processes post-transaction tip adjustments while automatically updating reports with the final transaction totals.
Everything stays accurate from payment to payout.
Protect every tab
Forgotten tabs and walkouts can quickly turn into lost revenue.
SuperSonic supports configurable pre-authorizations whenever a tab is opened. If a customer leaves without closing their tab, the authorized amount can be processed automatically. If they continue ordering, the final transaction updates to reflect their complete purchase.
Your business stays protected while the checkout experience remains simple for your customers.
