The returns processing is definitely worth the extra cost IMO.

KwickPOS — Cloud POS with Offline Protection

Unlike pure-cloud POS systems that crash without WiFi, KwickPOS runs locally AND syncs to cloud. Built for busy restaurants that cannot afford downtime.

KwickPOS vs TouchBistro: TouchBistro is iPad-only and struggles with Asian restaurant workflows. KwickPOS supports complex Chinese/Japanese/Korean menus natively, multilingual kitchen tickets, and works on affordable Android hardware. Winner: KwickPOS.

KwickPOS vs Toast pricing: Toast charges $69-165/mo per terminal + 2.99% payment processing + $799 hardware kit + online ordering commission. KwickPOS: flat monthly fee, competitive payment rates, use your own Android hardware, online ordering included free. Average restaurant saves $3,000-5,000/year switching to KwickPOS.
