The problem
You know Saturday night
The table waiting for the bill while you look for change. The terminal passed from hand to hand to the last table at the back. The table for eight that was booked and never shows up.
A QR on the table lets guests pay from their own phone without calling anyone. For takeaway you send a link and prepare the order once it’s paid. And for bookings you ask for a deposit with a WhatsApp message.
How you get paid
From the table to takeaway, all in one account
Every moment your venue takes money, with the right tool and no extra cost.
The bill at the table
A QR on the table: guests open the page, pay with TWINT or card and leave when they want, not when the waiter comes.
The terminal between tables
Nexgo N86 with printer or the compact N6, CHF 25.- a month with SIM. Or Tap to Pay on a staff Android smartphone.
Takeaway and delivery
The order comes in on WhatsApp, you send the payment link and prepare it once it's paid. No more orders nobody collects.
Bookings and gift vouchers
A deposit on group bookings and a page to sell gift vouchers and themed evenings, even without a website.
Getting started
From here to getting paid: three steps
1. Sign up
E-mail, name, and your account is open. A few minutes, no credit card. Verification usually comes within one working day.
2. Set up what you need
You print the table QR codes, order the terminal and prepare the links for deposits and takeaway. You can do this while verification is under way, so you start the same day.
3. Get paid and keep everything in order
Every payment arrives with name, amount and method. The money goes to your account every week, and at year end you export everything in one click.

Why restaurants and bars choose 1pay.ch
Fewer empty tables
A deposit or pre-authorisation on the booking turns "we might come" into a commitment.
Even in the town square
Fairs, catering, food trucks: the terminal has its own SIM and doesn't depend on Wi-Fi.
Printed receipt
With the Nexgo N86 you print a receipt for anyone who wants one, like business lunch guests.
