About Revel POS
What is Revel POS?
Revel POS, from Revel Systems, is a cloud-based iPad point of sale system for restaurants and retailers, built mainly for multi-location merchants. Shift4 completed its acquisition of Revel Systems in June 2024, and revelsystems.com now redirects to Shift4's food and beverage pages.
Revel's Always On Mode keeps a business running through internet slowdowns or outages, holding card payments taken offline and processing them once the connection returns. For quick-service restaurants it tracks inventory in real time down to the ingredient level, and its iPad POS includes retail inventory management with matrix inventory for items in several variants. Shift4 has said it plans to move legacy POS customers to its SkyTab platform over time, so buyers should confirm Revel's current product plans before choosing it.
