Running three sites is not the same as running one site three times. As a group grows, payment stops being a simple checkout step. It becomes part of the operating infrastructure across every venue.
A payment solution for a restaurant group must connect to each site’s POS, support the way guests split and tip, and give operators a consistent view without adding work for venue teams. These are the six checks that matter before you choose one.
Everything starts here. Your payment solution needs a live connection with your restaurant pos systems at every site. Without it, staff end up matching payments by hand at the till.
sunday reads each bill live from your POS, including items, prices, VAT and server ID, and sends every payment back in real time. That’s what makes bill splitting, tipping and end of shift reconciliation run smoothly, whether a site uses a modern epos for restaurant service or a more traditional restaurant pos software.
A few minutes saved per table quickly adds up across a group. A pay at table system lets guests scan, check their bill, split it and pay, with no waiting for a card machine.
That’s exactly what happened at Caravan: since its guests started splitting and paying on their own with sunday, table turn time has dropped by 8.5 minutes.
Since October 2024, the Workers (Allocation of Tips) Act requires every tip to reach staff fairly, with a clear record of how it was shared.
Because sunday links every tip to the server who took the table, you always know who earned what, without any extra admin. Your teams benefit too: at MJMK, tips are 50% higher than before sunday, and at Grasso, front of house staff earn an extra £1.50 an hour on average. That’s a real reason for people to stay.
90% of UK diners check Google before choosing a restaurant (BrightLocal, 2024). Yet most happy guests leave without writing anything.
sunday asks for a review right after payment, while guests are happy and still have their phone in hand. It works: at Arcade, 61% of Google reviews now come through sunday, and at MJMK, it’s 80% of over 3,000 five star reviews in just six months.
You can’t manage what you can’t see. Looking venue by venue means pulling numbers together by hand.
sunday brings spend, tips, reviews and guest feedback together for all your sites, so you can see at a glance which venue needs attention. Along the way, it also builds your guest list: Arcade has collected over 83,000 guest emails through sunday, a solid base for any loyalty programme.
Checkout is the last thing guests remember. A generic screen breaks the experience.
sunday lets you carry your colours, fonts and imagery from QR scan to payment, all set up in the dashboard with no design skills needed. Din Tai Fung uses it across its venues, because, as Zeta Leung, Head of Brand and Marketing, puts it: “The payment experience shouldn’t feel like stepping outside our restaurant.”
Card payments and split bills are the minimum. For a restaurant group, the right solution works the same way everywhere, gives you clear data and makes life easier for your teams. That’s what sunday was built for: a reliable POS connection, faster tables, fair tipping, more reviews and one clear view of your whole group.
