Same feature set. Different bill.
We're benchmarked against Toast for feature parity. The differences live in the operating model — guest QR ordering as default, one transparent monthly EFT, bilingual EN/FR everywhere, and hardware we ship and warranty ourselves.
Comparison reflects publicly disclosed pricing and feature documentation as of April 2026. Toast and Lightspeed pricing varies by negotiation; figures shown are headline rates. Square's free tier limits ordering volume and excludes the QR self-ordering channel. Always validate with each vendor before signing.
Three reasons. In their words.
"My Toast bill had eight line items."
Subscription, terminals, KDS, online-ordering, payment processing, email marketing, gift cards, fees. Waitery is one PAD/EFT.
"Quebec didn't really work."
French menus and receipts felt translated, not native. Waitery's bilingual layer is independent per touchpoint, per location.
"Guests were stuck waiting."
Servers run plates, not order pads. The kitchen sees the ticket while the guest is still on their first sip.
We'll handle the migration. You handle the menu.
Bring an export of your menu, your tax setup, and your last month's reports. We'll mirror your floor plan, port your modifiers, and stand up Waitery in parallel — so you can switch over on your slowest shift, not in a panic.
