Overview
TouchBistro is a restaurant-specific POS provider founded in 2010[11]. The company states that it powers more than 16,000 restaurants, has deployed more than 64,000 terminals and processes more than US$14 billion in payments annually[11]. Its news page lists a 9 July 2026 announcement that Harris, a software company, is acquiring TouchBistro Inc.[11]
The core POS covers menu management, reporting, floor plan and table management, staff management and 24/7 support. TouchBistro sells a long list of modules, including TouchBistro One, payments, a customer-facing display, inventory and labour management, a kitchen display system, profit management, commission-free online ordering, reservations, loyalty, marketing and gift cards[10].
Published pricing starts at US$69 per month for the POS, before hardware and processing, and US$119 per month for an Essentials Bundle that includes integrated payments and hardware; a custom tier covers front-of-house, back-of-house and guest-engagement suites[10]. Add-on prices are not published, and the advertised limited-time offer of three free months did not show its terms. The company says it works with a range of payment processors[10].
