A food truck POS that keeps selling when the signal doesn’t

Canadian payroll for all 13 provinces and territories — CPP, EI, QPP, vacation, stat holidays, remittances, T4s and ROEs.
Built for a counter on wheels
A food truck has no back office, so the POS has to fit in a pocket. SeroPOS runs on iPhone, iPad and Android, and works with compact ESC/POS receipt printers and kitchen printers over USB or network. With a short menu, your whole lineup fits on one screen, and modifier groups handle spice levels, toppings and add-ons.
Combos turn a main, side and drink into one button, which speeds up the line when fifty people arrive at once. Discounts handle event pricing or vendor deals, and tips are captured at payment. Email and SMS receipts save paper when counter space is tight and the wind keeps trying to take every slip off the window.

Selling when the signal drops
Festivals, farmers markets and industrial parks are notorious for patchy signal, usually at the exact moment the lunch crowd shows up. SeroPOS offline mode lets you keep ringing up orders when the connection disappears, then syncs sales once you are back online. The line keeps moving and the numbers still reach your reports.
For cards, the recommended Global Payments Verifone T650p terminal has a 5.5 inch touchscreen, built-in printer and Wi-Fi, 4G and Bluetooth, so it can process card payments without depending on venue Wi-Fi. Moneris and Gravity Payments are also supported, and Sero offers to beat the processing rate you pay today.
Prep, stock and the commissary
Running out of your best seller an hour into a festival is painful, and so is throwing out unsold prep at the end of a slow day. Real-time inventory in SeroPOS shows what is left as you sell, and recipe management on SeroPOS Pro deducts ingredients per item for ingredient-level costing.
Low-stock alerts and purchase orders help you restock from the commissary or suppliers between stops, and stock adjustments track waste. Trending reports and AI sales forecasting show which items sell at which kinds of events, so prep for this Saturday’s market can lean on data from the last few Saturdays instead of memory.
Events, pre-orders and the business side
Post a QR code on the truck so customers can order and pay from the line, and orders appear in the POS queue ready for the grill. SeroBot, the AI phone assistant, can answer calls with your live menu and hours, which is handy when people want to know when you open and what is on the menu today.
SeroPOS includes double-entry accounting and syncs to QuickBooks Online, Xero or SeroBooks. For catering invoices with terms and deposits, SeroBooks handles invoicing, receive payments and A/R on the same ledger. If you hire seasonal staff in Canada, SeroPayroll runs payroll through the summer and produces ROE files when the season ends.
