Compact Payment Devices

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Dojo Releases a Pocket-Sized Card Machine for Convenient Table Payments

— October 10, 2023 — Business
Dojo Pocket is a groundbreaking card machine designed with the utmost convenience in mind. Compact and streamlined to the dimensions of a modern smartphone, this device seamlessly fits into the server's apron or pocket for convenient use.

With the Dojo Pocket, customers can pay for their bills immediately, eliminating the need for live servers to bring the Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) system to the table. By streamlining the order and payment process, venues can achieve substantial time savings of up to four minutes per table, allowing more customers to replace previous diners faster.

“It is encouraging to see that despite tough times Brits still seek to support both small and large hospitality businesses and continue to value a fantastic night out, enjoyable lunch, and memorable get-togethers across Britain’s high streets. Innovations like Dojo Pocket enhance the speed of service, allowing staff to focus on creating memorable experiences while turning tables faster," said Jon Knott, head of consumer insights at Dojo.
