Mews, the industry-leading hospitality cloud, has released an all-in-one electronic point-of-sale (ePOS) system to further transform hotel businesses.
The Mews Terminal S2 combines the power and flexibility of ePOS system with the capabilities of a payment terminal.
It is expected to provide hotel businesses with increased speed, flexibility and ease of use for both staff and guests across all payment touchpoints.
The Mews Terminal S2 fully integrates with Mews POS, with Mews Payments embedded throughout to ensure seamless staff and guest experiences.
This enables staff to take orders and process secure payments from the same device anywhere on the property, from front desk room upgrades to poolside drinks.
It also eliminates wasteful trips between tables and fixed terminals and reduces order errors with real-time order transmission, allowing staff to focus on delivering exceptional guest service. Its flexibility and scalability make the solution suitable for both independent and property groups with F&B facilities.
The portable, wireless, hand-held device has a long-life, rechargeable battery, and empowers hoteliers to better manage the flow of busy restaurants and front desks.
It can be easily moved to high-traffic areas when necessary, such as the reception desk during check-out times or the restaurant during peak dining hours. This eliminates the need to double up on terminals at each location.
Arctic SnowHotel, a property part of the Snowhotel Family, located in Lapland, Finland, was an early adopter of the Mews Terminal S2.
The hotel experienced a significant positive impact on operations, with the average time to take orders and payments dropping from five minutes to just one minute.
Versatile payment options are available, with the ability to split bills, take card or mobile payments and charge directly to a room. An embedded tipping option makes it easy for guests to reward great service, helping to keep staff happy and engaged.
“Great hospitality is often about simplicity, and the Mews Terminal S2 means hotel and restaurant staff have just one, easy-to-use device to handle the administrative elements of their role,” said Matt Welle, CEO at Mews.
“Guests are served faster, staff make fewer mistakes, and hotels can work more efficiently and securely.”
