The 7 Best Restaurant POS Systems in Spain (2026)
Choosing a POS system for a restaurant in 2026 is no longer just about picking a nice-looking till. Verifactu (the new AEAT regulation rolling out in 2026), complex kitchen modifiers, online booking integration, WebUSB thermal printers and genuine tax compliance shape the decision far more than the monthly fee does. Get it wrong today and you’re looking at a forced migration in 6–12 months, right when the restaurant is in full production.
This ranking compares seven POS systems in real use across Spain, ordered by fit for the average Spanish restaurant: a neighbourhood spot doing 30–80 covers a day, meat-cooking modifiers, a kitchen running on tablet or thermal printer, and the need to comply with Verifactu without hiring a separate accountant for it.
Before the list, the four criteria we use:
- Real cost over 24 months — monthly fee + setup + minimum hardware (thermal printer + till + tablet or iPad). Not the brochure price.
- Integration with bookings, online shop and stock — an isolated POS forces you to re-key by hand what’s already sitting in another app.
- Verifactu/AEAT compliance — who issues the simplified receipt with QR + signed hash chain, without the restaurant having to touch XML or certificates.
- Support and onboarding in proper Spanish — self-onboarding, documentation, and email/phone support in real Spanish.
Here’s the list, from best fit to worst fit for the average Spanish restaurant.
1. Bouzon TPV — cloud POS integrated with bookings, shop and stock
Model: cloud POS with a responsive web app (tablet or iPad, nothing to install). Part of the Bouzon ecosystem (website + bookings + shop + stock + invoicing). Contracted as a standalone module or bundled into the website plan.
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| POS only (no website) | €29.99/month |
| POS + Stock & Recipes | €49.98/month |
| POS within the website plan | Included in €49.99/month |
| Setup | €0 (automatic signup + guided onboarding) |
| Minimum hardware | Tablet/iPad ( |
Strengths. One single provider for website + bookings + shop + POS + stock, QR + reviews + invoicing; the customer data belongs to the restaurant; complex modifiers (meat doneness with 6 levels + multiple side dishes) ready out of the box with a “Steakhouse” seed; native ESC/POS kitchen printing via WebUSB (no local print server required) or IP/network for shared printers; Verifactu built in with auto-issuing of the simplified receipt at checkout (hash chain + XAdES signature + AEAT-verifiable QR, included in the base fee with no separate module; it activates with the customer’s own FNMT certificate — there is no software census to register with anywhere, that step doesn’t exist); inventory decrements only when an order is sent to the kitchen or paid; support and onboarding 100% in Spanish; public pricing with no minimum term.
Weaknesses. Large-scale hospitality-specific hardware (RJ-12 cash drawer, industrial ticket printers, industrial barcode scanners) isn’t integrated out of the box — they connect via USB but advanced setup needs help. Limited offline mode: the app runs online; for sites without stable Wi-Fi, a phone with mobile data works as a backup router.
Best for. Neighbourhood restaurants (30–150 covers/day), tapas bars, cafés, bakeries and takeaways that value a single provider and a predictable fixed price.

2. Hiopos — the long-standing Spanish POS, modernised
Model: hybrid cloud + on-premise POS, Spanish software with a strong installed base in hospitality. Sold through official distributors (no direct online purchase); prices are negotiable.
| Item | Indicative cost |
|---|---|
| Monthly fee | €30–80/month/site (depending on modules) |
| Hiopos hardware | €800–2,000 (terminal + printer + cash drawer) |
| Setup via distributor | €200–500 |
Strengths. A brand well known in Spanish hospitality for decades; physical distributor support in almost every province; native integration with Glovo, Uber Eats and Just Eat to sync menu and orders; complies with Spanish tax regulation (TicketBAI in the Basque Country, Verifactu in progress); works offline in local mode with sync on reconnection.
Weaknesses. High real cost due to mandatory distributor hardware (you can’t bring your own iPad or a thermal printer from Amazon — it comes from the supplier at a marked-up price); contracts typically carry a 2–3 year minimum term; pre-cloud-era UI/UX, a noticeable learning curve; no built-in website or bookings — you have to pay a separate company (TheFork, CoverManager) and reconcile manually.
Better alternative. Bouzon TPV offers the same order-taking speed + multi-printer KDS + Spanish-language support without being tied to distributor hardware (saving ~€800–2,000 one-off) and with bookings + shop integrated into the same account. Support is provided by email/WhatsApp and onboarding is assisted at no travel cost.
3. Glop — modular Spanish POS with a perpetual licence
Model: Spanish POS software with a one-off perpetual licence (from €299) or a monthly subscription. Modular: you add modules (multi-site, e-commerce, loyalty) as needed.
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Basic perpetual licence | from €299 (one payment) |
| Cloud subscription | from €35/month |
| Additional modules | €10–50/month each |
Strengths. A perpetual licence is an interesting option for anyone who wants to pay it off and forget about fees; strong stock management; multi-site; integration with delivery marketplaces; technical support in Spanish.
Weaknesses. The perpetual licence doesn’t include long-term updates (you need to renew a maintenance contract at ~€75/year); a traditional desktop look, not a modern tablet app; no built-in online bookings; technical initial setup — not built for self-onboarding.
Better alternative. Bouzon TPV cloud (€29.99/month) removes the CapEx trap of the perpetual licence (annual maintenance + the mandatory Verifactu upgrade from 2027 + proprietary Windows hardware), comes with Verifactu in the base fee, free choice of ESC/POS hardware, and bookings + shop + website integrated into the same account. The real cost over 3–5 years, including all the perpetual licence’s upgrades, tends to come out lower.
4. Lightspeed Restaurant — international cloud POS for chains
Model: cloud POS of Canadian origin with a strong presence in Europe. Aimed at chains and restaurants with multiple sites.
| Item | Indicative cost |
|---|---|
| Essential plan | from €89/month/site |
| Plus plan | €149.99/month/site |
| Pro plan | €289/month/site |
| Official hardware | €600–1,500 per terminal |
Strengths. A very mature product, multi-country, multi-language, multi-currency; professional management reports; native integration with Stripe, Adyen, and Xero/QuickBooks accounting; genuine multi-site management with consolidation; 24/7 support.
Weaknesses. Significantly pricier than the Spanish standard (€89–289/month vs €30–50 from local competitors); Spanish-language support is available but the documentation is built for Anglo markets; annual contracts with a minimum term; no built-in Spanish booking system (TheFork yes, Bouzon Bookings or CoverManager not by default); Spanish Verifactu isn’t a priority — it’s handled through certified partners.
Better alternative. Bouzon TPV for multiple sites (native multi-tenant + consolidated superadmin on a flat fee) covers the same use case for a fraction of the cost (€29.99/month/site vs €89–289/month/site), with native Verifactu from day one, Spanish-language documentation, multi-printer KDS and free ESC/POS printing with no proprietary hardware. For a group of 3+ sites, the accumulated saving over 24 months exceeds €10,000.
5. Camarero10 / Cuestapunto — Spanish POS aimed at bars and cafés
Model: a lightweight POS built for tapas bars, cafés and venues where bar-counter speed matters. Sold through partners but with an online trial signup.
| Item | Indicative cost |
|---|---|
| Monthly fee | €30–50/month/site |
| Setup | €0–200 depending on partner |
| Hardware | €400–900 (starter package) |
Strengths. A clean, fast interface built for bar rhythm (an owner ringing up sales while plating tapas doesn’t want 4 clicks per sale); support and training in Spanish; low entry price; up-to-date tax compliance.
Weaknesses. A product built for the counter — restaurants with complex kitchens and modifiers fall short; no built-in bookings; limited integration ecosystem (no Verifactu built in as of May 2026, you have to wait for a partner to add it); basic reporting.
Better alternative. Bouzon TPV (€29.99/month) offers the same counter-focused checkout speed, adds Verifactu confirmed in the base fee (not “in progress”), complex modifiers for kitchens with wider production, and bookings + shop built in to grow without switching providers. A flat fee with no minimum term.
6. Numier TPV — multi-channel Spanish POS
Model: a Spanish POS built for hospitality with modules for kitchen, floor, in-house delivery and staff management. Monthly fee with an annual minimum term.
| Item | Indicative cost |
|---|---|
| Monthly fee | €49–99/month/site |
| Hardware | €700–1,500 starter package |
| Minimum term | Typically 12 months |
Strengths. A product focused on hospitality with specific modules (staff time-tracking, kitchen KDS, tip management, wireless order pads); Spanish-language support; a sales presence across many provinces.
Weaknesses. No built-in bookings — you have to reconcile manually with TheFork/CoverManager; high hardware cost due to distributor dependency; a standard annual contract; Verifactu is in progress, not ready to activate on day one.
Better alternative. Bouzon TPV (€29.99/month standalone, or €49.98/month bundled with Stock & Recipes) covers multi-printer KDS, category-based routing, per-user permissions and shift management in the base fee, with Verifactu confirmed from day one and bookings + shop in the same account. No annual minimum term and no mandatory proprietary hardware.
7. MyChefTool — Spanish POS with in-house delivery built in
Model: an “all-in-one” Spanish POS that includes floor POS, its own online ordering website, Glovo/Uber Eats integration, loyalty and CRM. High entry price but everything in one place.
| Item | Indicative cost |
|---|---|
| Monthly fee | €99/month (Restaurant plan) |
| Hardware | Your own tablet/iPad + printer €200–500 |
| Setup | Included in the fee |
Strengths. An integrated solution with its own online ordering channel, restaurant website + POS + delivery integration; loyalty and CRM built in; solid Spanish-language support; high visibility at industry events.
Weaknesses. The entry plan is already €99/month, double the standard rate; the restaurant website is a template, not bespoke design (limiting for aggressive local SEO); its online ordering widget charges a variable commission depending on the plan; no built-in bookings with strong Stripe deposit support; switching providers means losing the in-house ordering channel you’d already built on top of it.
Better alternative. Bouzon’s website plan (€49.99/month) bundles POS + Shop (0% commission) + Bookings + a bespoke restaurant website (not a template), confirmed Verifactu, and customer data under your direct control — at half MyChefTool’s monthly cost and with no lock-in to a proprietary ordering channel you can’t take with you.
Final comparison: real cost over 24 months for a restaurant doing 60 covers/day
For a fair comparison, we assume: 1 floor POS + 1 thermal printer + 1 tablet/iPad (~€250), a restaurant doing 60 covers/day, with no minimum term broken partway through the period.
| POS | Monthly fee | Hardware (one-off) | 24-month cost | Bookings built in | Verifactu certified |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bouzon TPV (POS only) | €29.99/month | ~€250 | €969.76 | ✅ with website plan | ✅ |
| Bouzon TPV + Stock | €49.98/month | ~€250 | €1,449.52 | ✅ with website plan | ✅ |
| Camarero10 | ~€40/month | ~€600 | €1,560 | ❌ | Partial |
| Hiopos | ~€55/month | ~€1,200 | €2,520 | ❌ | ✅ |
| Glop (subscription) | ~€35/month | ~€600 | €1,440 | ❌ | Partial |
| Numier | ~€75/month | ~€1,000 | €2,800 | ❌ | In progress |
| Lightspeed Essential | ~€89/month | ~€800 | €2,936 | TheFork only | Via partner |
| MyChefTool | ~€99/month | ~€350 | €2,726 | ❌ | In progress |
Over 24 months, the saving from Bouzon TPV (standalone) against the cheapest Spanish POS (Glop subscription, €1,440) is ~€470. Against Lightspeed or Numier, the saving climbs to €1,700–2,000.
And that’s without counting bookings: if the restaurant also needs online bookings, contracting TheFork separately costs another ~€570/month (€39 fee + €3/cover × 60 covers × 30 confirmed booking days online) = an extra €13,680 over 24 months. Bouzon Bookings is already included in the website plan (€49.99/month), with no per-cover commission.
The practical rule: how to choose by restaurant type
| Restaurant type | Main recommendation |
|---|---|
| Neighbourhood bar / café <30 covers | Bouzon TPV standalone (€29.99/month with Verifactu included) |
| Family restaurant, 30–80 covers, with a website | Bouzon TPV within the website plan (€49.99/month, everything included) |
| Complex kitchen + meat modifiers | Bouzon TPV (configurable modifiers + multi-printer KDS included) |
| Chain, 3+ sites | Bouzon TPV multi-site (native multi-tenant + consolidated superadmin on a flat fee) |
| Restaurant prioritising in-house delivery | Bouzon TPV + Shop (€49.99 website + 0% commission per order) |
| Restaurant with stock and costing (escandallo) | Bouzon TPV + Stock & Recipes (bundle, €49.98/month) |
| Hotel with F&B + multiple zones | Bouzon TPV (multi-tenant + category-based ticket routing) |
If your restaurant fits more than one row, the key question is always the same: how many providers do I want to reconcile at month end? Every extra provider (website + bookings + POS + shop + invoicing + printer) is one more invoice, one more password, one more support line to call when something goes down.
How we built the POS module
At Bouzon Digital we built the POS module with one concrete goal: a restaurant should have the same data flow from the website through to the kitchen, with no manual gaps and no juggling two accounts in two different systems.
What’s included in the website plan + POS module:
- Responsive cloud POS — opens on tablet, iPad or laptop, nothing to install.
- Complex modifiers — meat doneness (6 levels), multiple side dishes, allergens.
- ESC/POS kitchen printing — native WebUSB (no local print server) or IP/network.
- Z-report till close — a printable, PDF-exportable daily report.
- Verifactu certified — auto-issuing of the simplified receipt at checkout, with QR + AEAT-signed hash chain.
- Stock & Recipes (add-on) — recipe per dish, automatic stock decrement on payment, low-stock alerts.
- Per-user permissions — which staff member can void, discount, or close the till.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the cheapest POS for a restaurant in Spain? Bouzon TPV standalone (€29.99/month) is the most affordable on base monthly fee and includes Verifactu, free choice of ESC/POS hardware and multi-printer KDS with no extra modules. If you also need bookings or an online shop, the website plan (€49.99/month) bundles all eight modules into a single account — the total cost over 24 months ends up well below contracting POS + bookings + website separately.
Which POS is most compliant with Verifactu/AEAT? Hiopos has spent years keeping up with TicketBAI/Verifactu through updates. Bouzon TPV is Verifactu-certified: auto-issuing of the simplified receipt at checkout with QR + hash chain + XAdES signature. The restaurant’s only paperwork is its own FNMT certificate — there is no AEAT software census or homologation to register with; what the maker must hand over is the declaration of conformity, and we sign ours. Lightspeed covers it via a certified partner, not out of the box.
Can I use my own thermal printer (Epson, Star, Bixolon), or do I have to buy the provider’s? Bouzon TPV supports any standard ESC/POS printer via WebUSB (Chrome/Edge on desktop or macOS Safari) or via network IP. Hiopos, Numier and Camarero10 work with their certified printers (you can bring your own, but the distributor’s support won’t cover it). Lightspeed supports several officially certified printers.
Do I need to buy an official iPad, or can I use my Android tablet? Bouzon TPV and MyChefTool work on any tablet with a modern browser (Android Chrome, iPad Safari, Windows tablet with Edge). Hiopos and Numier require their official distributor-sold hardware. Glop has a desktop client. Lightspeed works on the official iPad and in-browser.
Does the POS connect to my booking system? Bouzon TPV integrates natively with Bouzon Bookings (once a booking is seated, it appears on the POS floor plan and the ticket the waiter opens there stays linked to that booking). Hiopos and Numier don’t integrate bookings — you have to reconcile manually with TheFork or CoverManager. Lightspeed integrates with TheFork but not with CoverManager or smaller Spanish systems. If bookings are a significant part of your operation, this point carries real weight.
