Disclosure: ChaChaCha is a POS vendor, powered by AppsPOS, and we compete with TabSquare and with some of the alternatives below. We only used information published on each vendor’s own website as of September 2026.
- TabSquare offers QR ordering with AI upselling and guest-experience tools, sold in four tiers by outlet count. It publishes no prices.
- Alternatives with published Singapore prices include Eats365 (modular), Dinlr (iPad-based), Qashier (one daily price) and Rewardly (loyalty-led).
- The biggest difference is where ordering lives: a QR layer on top of your POS, or ordering built into the POS itself.
- Choose by use case: single outlet, multi-outlet chain, or deep POS integration.
Last reviewed: September 2026. Vendor details were checked on each vendor’s own website on 28 September 2026. Where a price is given, we say whether the vendor states that it includes GST.
Restaurant groups looking at TabSquare are usually weighing AI-driven QR ordering against simpler or more integrated options.

This guide starts with what TabSquare offers, then groups alternatives for QR ordering, kiosks and POS-native ordering by the restaurant they suit best.

How we compared (and who wrote this)
ChaChaCha is a point-of-sale system for Singapore F&B businesses, powered by AppsPOS Pte. Ltd., a Singapore POS company operating since 2013. Our rules for this page:
- Vendor websites only. Every feature and price comes from the vendor’s own site, linked where used. We did not use review-site ratings or quotes.
- “Not stated on their website” means we could not find it on the pages we reviewed, not that the feature is missing.
- No ranking. Options are grouped by the business they suit best.
What TabSquare offers
TabSquare’s homepage says it is trusted by more than 7,000 restaurants across Asia and beyond. Its About page lists 10 markets, including Singapore, and says it is part of the Delivery Hero family. The site describes a guest journey covering discovery (MunchMate recommendations), ordering (the invite-only Vibe menu), payment at the table (SmartPay) and follow-up messages.
Its pricing page sets out four tiers by outlet count:
- Starting Out (1 to 3 outlets): standard QR ordering without POS integration, payment integration and basic daily reports.
- Growing Hot (4 to 10): sends orders to the POS, adds AI to raise the average bill, delivery partner integration and outlet-level insights.
- Scaling Up (11 to 30): menu sync from the POS, brand-level menus and guest behaviour insights.
- Industry Leader (30+): custom POS and CRM integrations, 99.9% uptime and a dedicated account manager.
No amounts or transaction rates are published. Kiosks appear only in customer stories on its solutions page, so ask TabSquare whether they are part of the current offer.
Why restaurants look at TabSquare alternatives
- Published pricing. Some owners want to see the monthly cost before a sales call. Our TabSquare pricing guide explains what its plans include.
- POS integration at a small size. On TabSquare’s pricing page, sending orders to the POS starts at the tier suggested for 4 to 10 outlets.
- One system. Some outlets prefer ordering, kitchen and payments in the POS rather than an extra layer.
- Kiosks or table tablets alongside, or instead of, QR codes.
If you are happy with TabSquare’s upselling and guest tools, the better question may be whether a higher tier or a different payment set-up solves your issue. Ask TabSquare first, then compare.

QR codes, kiosks or table tablets?
QR ordering uses the guest’s phone, so hardware costs are low, and it suits table service where guests order in rounds. Kiosks suit counter-service outlets with queues, since they take payment before the order reaches the kitchen. Table tablets give a controlled, photo-led menu but need charging, cleaning and replacement. Many outlets mix two. Our guide to QR ordering vs kiosk vs counter covers the trade-offs, and our QR ordering system page explains how ChaChaCha’s version works.
Questions to ask before switching from TabSquare
- Menu and modifiers. Can the new system rebuild your modifiers, set menus and time-based menus, and who does the work?
- Payments. Which methods and providers are supported, and at what rates?
- Guest data. Can you export guest and order data from TabSquare, and does the transfer comply with the PDPA?
- Delivery. Do delivery platform orders and menus flow into the new system?
- Grants. Is the package supported under the EDGE Grant, which replaced PSG from 30 September 2026?
- Cut-over. Plan a quiet day to swap QR codes on every table, and keep the old codes working until the switch is complete.
