Request a free restaurant POS demo (20 minutes)
A free, personalized 20-minute call for restaurant owners comparing POS and online ordering. We walk through Integrated POS, commission-free online ordering (the guest pays 5%; you pay 0% commission), and QR self-service, answer fee and hardware questions, and include a free marketing report. No credit card to book. No obligation. On the call, we’ll cover:
Integrated POS walkthrough
Take a sample order and see tickets, payments, and how POS fees work: 3.0% + 20¢, paid by the restaurant by default, with a cash discount program to pass it to customers (most of our POS restaurants use it). Integrated POS.
Commission-free online ordering
Your branded storefront: 0% commission to you, and the guest pays 5% at checkout. Compare that with delivery apps that typically take 25–30%. Online ordering · Pricing.
QR self-service ordering
How guests order and pay from their phone at the table or counter, on the same menu. Self-service.
Hardware and setup
The POS runs on your existing iPad, or on Ser.vi hardware offered on terms; we go over options and payment. POS and online ordering software have no contract.
Free marketing report
A personalized breakdown of your online strengths and weaknesses, and how guests find and order from you. Optional marketing plans are separate.

Who this demo is for
- You run (or are opening) a restaurant, café, or similar food business and want POS and direct online ordering without a monthly software subscription.
- You're comparing Toast, Square, or a delivery-app-heavy setup and want a clear fee walkthrough. See our Toast alternative, Square alternative, and DoorDash alternative guides.
- You want no software contract and are fine evaluating hardware separately.
- You'd rather guests order on your own storefront (0% commission to you) than only through marketplaces.
We're upfront that "free software" isn't zero card fees: the guest pays 5% on online orders, and POS orders are 3.0% + 20¢ (paid by the restaurant by default, or passed on with a cash discount). Details are on our pricing page.
What happens after you submit
- You submit the form on this page. It takes about a minute.
- We confirm a time. We'll get back to you promptly on business days to confirm a time, matched to the "best time to reach you" you picked.
- The 20-minute walkthrough. Real product, questions welcome.
- The next step is yours. If you want to continue, we outline hardware options and onboarding. If not, no pressure.

Yes. The 20-minute walkthrough and the marketing report are free. No credit card to book, and no obligation to buy.
How long is the Ser.vi demo?
About 20 minutes, tailored to POS, online ordering, self-service, and/or marketing based on what you select on the form.
Do I need to install anything before the demo?
No. We show the product on the call.
Is there a contract?
Online ordering and POS software have no contract. Hardware is separate if you need it.
What should I prepare?
Nothing is required. It helps to know your current POS or ordering tools, how many locations you run, and whether you care most about POS, online ordering, or QR self-service. Fees are published on our pricing page if you want to read ahead.
