# Best POS System for Pubs & Bars in Brisbane

EliteTeQ Bar POS is one of the best POS systems for pubs and bars in Brisbane because it processes high-volume drink orders up to 3x faster during peak hours, manages open tabs and split bills accurately, tracks liquor inventory by bottle, pour, and keg to reduce shrinkage by up to 25%, and provides real-time sales visibility with local payment and tax compliance.

A POS system designed for pubs, bars, lounges, and nightclubs in Brisbane, helping venues speed up drink service, control liquor inventory, and manage open tabs efficiently from a single dashboard.

## Problems We Solve

- **Over-Pouring and Spillage Quietly Emptying the Keg** — A keg that should give 120 pints gives 95; a spirit bottle empties faster than the sales say it should. Free-pouring, spillage, and breakage are invisible without measuring what should have sold against what actually did — and across a month that gap is real money gone.
- **Free Pours and Unrung Drinks Behind the Bar** — It is the easiest till in the world to skim: a round poured and never rung up, a quiet "one for my friend," a heavy hand on the spirits. A bar runs on cash and trust at speed, and a careless or dishonest bartender can pour 10–20% of your margin down the drain — and on a packed night you would never see it happen.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Open a tab to a name or a card, see every live tab on one screen, and transfer it cleanly between bartenders at shift change — with card pre-authorisation on bigger tabs. *Tabs get settled instead of walking, and a shift change never loses track of who owes what.*
- One-tap drink buttons, saved rounds, and instant Apple Pay, card, and cash keep every order moving, with splitting handled in seconds. *You serve far more rounds an hour at peak, turning the Friday rush into takings instead of walkouts.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Your Bar** — Add drinks, prices, pour sizes, and happy hour rules.
2. **Serve & Sell Fast** — Open tabs, take orders, and close bills quickly.
3. **Track & Optimize** — Monitor inventory, sales trends, and staff performance.

## Features

- **Apple Pay, Card & Cash** — Take Apple Pay, cards, and cash fast at a busy bar, split any way, and issue a ATO-compliant receipt on every sale.
- **Fast Drink Ordering & Rounds** — One-tap drink buttons and saved rounds built for a three-deep bar, so a bartender fires a round and takes payment in seconds instead of hunting for prices.
- **Open, Transferable Tabs** — Open a tab to a name or card, see every live tab on one screen, and transfer it cleanly between bartenders at shift change — with pre-authorisation on bigger tabs.
- **Liquor, Pour & Keg Control** — Bottle-, pour-, and keg-level tracking measures what should have sold against what actually did, flagging over-pouring and spillage by product and shift.

## Frequently Asked Questions

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know what the till feels like at midnight.** The round that never got rung up, the tab that walked out the door, the keg that gave far fewer pints than the sales say it should. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to bar and pub owners in Nairobi, where the trade is fast, cash-heavy, and trust behind the bar is everything.
