As autumn arrives, the festive season is just around the corner, making it an ideal time to review your current operations and consider updating any outdated systems.

Ensuring continuous member engagement should be a top priority when selecting EPoS systems for your club. While effective customer engagement greatly benefits member clubs, it can be a time-intensive process without the right systems in place.

Summer has finally arrived which means it’s time to officially put your EPoS to the test. With the increased footfall in your pub gardens, you’re already thinking about how to get the most out of your solutions, and we’re here to show you how a flexible all-in-one system puts you in a position to react quickly and meet customer needs.

A deferred date has been set for the implementation of the new Employment (Allocation of Tips) Act. On 1st October 2024 it is proposed that this Act will make it unlawful for employers to withhold gratuities from their workers and ensure that tips are allocated fairly amongst all staff, including those on zero-hour contracts.

Dive into the peak season with industry-leading EPoS solutions that not only maximise efficiency but also foster more sustainable operations. The increased traffic you’ll experience during the summer will require more comprehensive resource management, so it’s important to have an all-in-one system you can rely on.

UK venues which are still being plagued by the amount of closures around the country, had hoped for some support around key areas such as business rates, a lower rate of VAT and Employer National Insurance Contributions. In fact, the chancellor Jeremy Hunt made no reference to any of them. His only mention of hospitality was to announce that this failing conservative government is extending the alcohol duty freeze from August 2024 to 1 February 2025…big whoop!

Pubs and bars have taken on more cost increases this month, as April 2024 sees jumps in mandatory wages and business rates. According to trade body UKHospitality, increases to the National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage will see the sector’s wage bill increase by £3.2bn. Increases to businesses rates add up to £224m.
