Tabs, tips, and last call.
A bar and nightlife-friendly POS with fast tab management, pre-authorization, and tip handling. Built for the pace of a busy bar rather than adapted to it. Real rates and 24/7 bilingual support behind it.
Open and close fast
Card held on the tab
Pooling & reporting
Bilingual support
Built for three deep at the bar.
Bar service breaks most POS systems in the same places: opening tabs, holding cards, and splitting tips at the end of the night. Union is designed around those three.
Fast tab management
Open, add to, transfer, and close tabs in as few taps as the job allows. The bar's rhythm doesn't wait for the terminal.
Pre-authorization
Hold a card against an open tab so a walked tab is a rarity rather than a nightly write-off.
Tip handling
Declaration, pooling, and per-shift reporting that survives a busy Saturday and a payroll question on Monday.
Reorder the same round
Repeat a round without re-ringing every drink — the difference between serving four people and serving six.
Staff accountability
Per-bartender logins, so voids, comps, and heavy pours attach to a name instead of a shift.
Reporting that reads right
Sales by bartender, hour, and product — so you can see which shifts and which pours actually made money.
What it is, and who it suits.
Union is a software platform rather than a single device — we spec the hardware around it once we know how your bar runs.

How does Union compare to Clover?
Clover is the broader platform and covers a bar perfectly well. Union is narrower and more opinionated about bar service specifically — tabs, pre-auths, and tips. If your bar is the whole business rather than part of it, it’s worth looking at.
Does pre-authorization stop walked tabs?
It makes them far less costly, because the card is already authorised against the tab. It isn’t a guarantee — nothing is — but it’s the single biggest lever most bars have.
Can it handle tip pooling?
Yes, with declaration and per-shift reporting. We configure the rules during onboarding based on how your house already splits.
Do I have to switch processors?
Send us your current statement and we’ll quote both keeping and moving your account so you can pick what nets you more.
