Short answer
A takeaway EPOS is a touchscreen till built for high-volume collection, delivery and phone orders: fast order entry, caller ID for repeat phone customers, kitchen printing, cash management and your own online ordering. The priorities are speed at the counter, staying up when the internet drops, and taking orders direct — marketplaces such as Just Eat, Uber Eats and Deliveroo typically charge 14–30% commission per order. Posso takeaway EPOS is offline-first, includes a branded ordering website, and starts from £499 + VAT. Systems are preconfigured and shipped plug-and-play.
Built for Speed, Designed for Takeaways
Every feature in the Posso takeaway ePOS is designed to save seconds. In a takeaway doing 200+ orders on a busy night, those seconds translate into real revenue.
Rapid Order Processing
Category tabs, favourites bar, and one-tap items mean a typical takeaway order is entered in under 15 seconds. During peak hours, those seconds compound into hundreds of extra orders per week.
Thermal Printing
Lightning-fast thermal printers for customer receipts and kitchen tickets. Support for multiple printers — one for the customer, one for the kitchen, one for the driver label.
Cash Management
Cash drawer opens automatically on cash transactions. Float management, blind cash-ups, and variance tracking keep your takings accurate and your staff accountable.
Shift & Day Reports
X reads for mid-shift cash counts. Z reads for end-of-day totals. See cash vs card split, total sales, refunds, and voids. Print or export for your records.
Caller ID Lookup
When the phone rings, the customer's name, address, and last order appear on screen. One tap to reorder their usual. Repeat customers feel valued and you save time on every call.
Online Ordering Website
Get your own branded ordering website included with your ePOS. Customers place orders directly with you at low commission — no need to rely solely on Just Eat or Uber Eats.

Why Speed Matters More Than Features in a Takeaway ePOS
Some POS systems sell themselves on having 200 features. But on a Saturday night when you have 15 people waiting, a queue of phone orders, and three Uber Eats orders printing — the only thing that matters is speed.
Posso strips away the complexity. The order screen shows exactly what your staff need. Category tabs across the top, popular items pinned as favourites, modifiers that appear only when relevant. No scrolling through menus. No hunting for buttons.
Combined with caller ID that pulls up previous orders instantly, and thermal printing that fires the moment an order is confirmed, Posso turns your takeaway into a well-oiled machine.

Start with the opening-a-takeaway EPOS checklist. Every one of them runs on the same EPOS system.
This is one part of the Posso EPOS system — the same till, kitchen display, ordering and card payments, set up for your type of venue. Every one-off and monthly cost is on the EPOS pricing page.
Takeaway ePOS — Frequently Asked Questions
What is a takeaway ePOS system?
A takeaway ePOS (electronic point of sale) is a touchscreen till system designed specifically for takeaway businesses. It handles order entry, kitchen printing, cash management, card payments, and often includes online ordering and delivery management. Posso takeaway ePOS starts from £499 + VAT.
How fast can I enter orders on the Posso takeaway ePOS?
Most staff enter a standard takeaway order in under 15 seconds after a brief training session. The interface uses category tabs, favourites, and quick-add buttons. With caller ID, repeat phone orders take under 90 seconds from ringing to confirmed.
Does the takeaway ePOS include cash management?
Yes. The cash drawer opens automatically on cash transactions. You can set a starting float, run blind or counted cash-ups, and view variance reports. X reads show mid-shift totals and Z reads provide end-of-day summaries.
Can I get an online ordering website with the ePOS?
Yes. Your Posso ePOS includes a branded online ordering website where customers order collection or delivery directly from you. Commission is low compared to aggregators like Just Eat (which charge 30%+). Orders flow straight to your POS and kitchen printer.
Does the ePOS work if my internet goes down?
Yes. Posso is built offline-first. You can continue taking orders, processing cash payments, and printing kitchen tickets without an internet connection. When the connection returns, all data syncs to the cloud automatically.

Systems are preconfigured and shipped plug-and-play. We handle menu import, payment terminal setup and staff training. Setup (menu build + configuration) is free; on-site installation for larger sites is priced on application.
