Cost to get started

The cash your restaurant puts in before it opens on the new POS, in our reference scenario ($30k/month in card sales, $35 average ticket, 2 terminals, 1 location, 36 months): equipment you buy up front plus one-time setup or installation fees. Same rows for every POS.

25% of the RTC Score

Total to get startedCan't be calculated with published data

What's missing

  • Terminals: not published.

Left out and why

  • Monthly and yearly charges (rent, software, yearly fees per device) are part of the 36-month cost, not of the entry cost.

Switching or signing bonus

What the vendor's current promotions are worth to our reference restaurant ($30k/month in card sales, $35 average ticket, 2 terminals, 1 location, 36 months), an established restaurant switching from another company's POS.

25% of the RTC Score

Counted in the RTC Score

$0

No current switching or signing promotion. It counts $0.

Promotions end and change, so we re-check them: one with no end date comes down if we can't re-check it within 30 days, and an expired one stops counting the day after it ends.

Hardware warranty

The same rows for every POS: how long the main terminal is covered against defects when you get it a standard way (buying, leasing, renting, a subscription or a loan), the conditions, including what it leaves out and what keeping it costs, and the price to replace that terminal outside the coverage.

Hardware warranty includedUnconfirmedSource: Qu Beyond (opens in a new tab)Qu sells through demos and publishes no hardware warranty. Its public terms (website terms and the Qu Pay and Adyen third-party terms) say nothing about a POS hardware warranty; Adyen payment devices fall under Adyen's own terms.
Warranty conditionsUnconfirmedSource: Qu Beyond (opens in a new tab)
Price to replace the main terminalNot publishedSee my price for Qu POS (opens the provider's site in a new tab)Source: Qu Beyond (opens in a new tab)Qu publishes no hardware prices; its site asks you to book a demo.

The RTC Score only counts how long defects are covered. What the coverage leaves out (accidents, theft, loss) and what it costs to keep are in the conditions. A protection plan sold separately doesn't count; if the vendor offers one, it's in the conditions. The replacement price isn't added to the 36-month cost, because there's no public data on how often equipment fails.

Trial or money-back period

Whether you can try the POS and leave, and what it costs you if you do. Same rows for every POS.

Trial or money-back periodNone publishedSource: Qu Beyond (opens in a new tab)We checked Qu's site, POS, support and contact pages: no trial or money-back window is published.
Trial periodN/ASource: Qu Beyond (opens in a new tab)No trial is published.
Charges during the trialN/ASource: Qu Beyond (opens in a new tab)No trial is published.
Trial conditionsNo trial or refund window is published; Qu offers a demo request.Source: Qu Beyond (opens in a new tab)

In the RTC Score the trial is part of the contract block, the lowest weight in the model: full points when you can try it with no software charges or get your money back, half when you can cancel without the early termination fee but the charges during the trial are yours.
