A few things worth knowing about.
Not everything below has shipped to every venue yet — each card says exactly where it stands.
PMS integration
IN TESTINGPost room charges straight to the guest folio in your property management system from the till, with a retry queue if the PMS is briefly unreachable. Built and now going through testing on a live property before it ships everywhere.
Finance integration
IN DEVELOPMENTSales, tax and tips flowing into your accounting software, so month-end starts from clean numbers instead of a re-keyed spreadsheet. In active development.
Built-in reservations
LIVEGuests book from your website — instant or request-to-book — straight into the day’s book. Confirm, seat straight onto the floor plan, mark a no-show or cancel, all from the iPad. No separate reservations system to keep in sync.
Loyalty & rewards program
IN DEVELOPMENTTiers, a real rewards catalogue, birthday and referral bonuses, points that expire on your terms, and a self-service web portal guests can sign into with just their phone or email — no app to download. QR-code signup at the table.
Split payments by seat
IN DEVELOPMENTSplit a table’s check evenly or by exactly what each seat ordered, without a manager doing the maths by hand. In active development as one of the most requested additions from busy tables.
Multi-currency billing
LIVEPrice in your own currency and show the guest the total in the money they think in, at a live rate. Both figures are recorded on the check, and room charges post in whatever currency the PMS itself expects.
House accounts
LIVECharge a check straight to a guest or member’s account instead of a card or cash, with a limit, a running balance and a settle-up flow. Built for hotels and clubs with regulars who run a tab across visits.
Kessl Anchor keeps the floor together, offline.
Standard Kessl already keeps every iPad working on its own when the internet drops. Kessl Anchor goes further: a small on-site hub that every iPad talks to over your own network, so the whole floor — orders, kitchen tickets, tab transfers — keeps moving in real time even with zero internet. The moment the connection returns, Anchor reconciles everything with the cloud automatically.
