i’ve been looking at several POS systems and want to understand revel’s pricing. do they have different tiers, and what should i expect to pay for a small restaurant?

Depends entirely on your restaurant's needs and which features you decide to implement. Revel Systems operates on a freemium and subscription-based pricing model, meaning you can start with a basic version at no cost, but advanced features require payment. For a small restaurant, consider the costs of both the software subscription and any additional features you want. The base subscription typically covers essential functions like payment processing and basic inventory management. However, features that improve restaurant operations—such as advanced analytics, loyalty programs, or employee commission management—require higher-tier subscriptions or additional fees. A loyalty program to retain customers, for example, adds to your monthly costs. Since Revel is cloud-based, scaling user licenses or adding devices will also increase your expenses. Note that users report being surprised by contract renewal terms that can raise costs later. As your restaurant grows or needs change, you may require more features than you initially planned for.
