Testimonials

What operators are saying.

Our taproom went from a line at the bar to guests ordering rounds from their table. Labor's down, ticket size is up, and when we had a question on a Saturday night someone actually picked up the phone.
TB
Taproom OwnerCraft Brewery — California
Switching processors always felt like a nightmare. Ascend handled the whole migration, trained our staff, and the rates were better than what we'd been paying for years.
GM
General ManagerFull-Service Restaurant
We run a beer garden with three zones and QR ordering just works. Guests love not waiting, and the pay-at-table device covers the folks who'd rather hand over a card.
