Pickup Signal:
About
Pickup Signal is a hosted order-ready display for food businesses with pickup counters. It shows orders in a Making queue and moves them to Ready when staff update their status, letting customers check progress on a TV or tablet. Shops can sync eligible orders from Square, enter tickets manually, or send orders from a website or kiosk through the authenticated API. Staff can use Pickup Signal's iPhone and iPad app or a browser-based staff page on phones and tablets to add orders, update statuses and mark pickups. The customer display runs in a TV browser or on another supported screen, with full, Making-only and Ready-only views. Shops can choose board designs and add their name, logo and colors. Pickup Signal is designed for coffee shops, bakeries, boba and tea shops, and other made-to-order counters. It provides a customer-facing pickup layer alongside existing payment and kitchen-production systems.

About
Waitery is a cloud-based restaurant point-of-sale platform for Canadian restaurants, cafés and quick-service venues. Guests scan a table QR code to browse the menu, place orders, split bills, tip and pay in a mobile browser without installing an app. Orders from dine-in, staff handhelds, direct online ordering and supported delivery channels route to a kitchen display with station routing, expo view and a print fallback. The platform provides menu management, payment processing, bilingual English and French interfaces, digital receipts and per-province Canadian sales-tax handling. Optional modules cover inventory, labor and time clock, reservations, catering and third-party delivery. Waitery supplies POS terminals, server handhelds, kitchen-display tablets and printers, available for purchase or lease. The system supports table service, counter service, pickup and delivery workflows for Canadian food-service operators.
