SkyTab (Shift4)

Shift4's restaurant POS bundled with its payment processing

Overview

SkyTab is the POS line of Shift4 Payments, Inc., a payments company headquartered in Center Valley, Pennsylvania[15]. Shift4 describes SkyTab POS as purpose-built workstations pre-loaded with software and integrated payments, alongside SkyTab Mobile for handheld payments, and a marketplace that lets restaurants plug in services such as DoorDash ordering, payroll and timekeeping[15]. The former Revel Systems pricing page, revelsystems.com/pricing, now redirects to Shift4’s food-and-beverage page.

Shift4 is expanding SkyTab internationally. On 4 November 2025 it completed the acquisition of Smartpay Holdings, a payments and POS provider in Australia and New Zealand, citing Smartpay’s distribution network for products such as SkyTab POS[15]. Shift4 also completed the acquisition of Global Blue in 2025[15].

SkyTab’s economics rest on Shift4 processing; software and hardware are typically packaged with payments. Shift4’s SkyTab website returned rate-limit errors during this review, so no prices are listed.
