About

Tillster is a digital ordering, kiosk, and engagement platform headquartered in Los Angeles, California, serving enterprise restaurant chains across the quick-service and fast-casual segments. Founded in 2004 and formerly known as Snapfinger, Tillster powers branded online ordering websites, native mobile apps, and in-store self-service kiosks for large restaurant brands that want to control their digital ordering channel rather than relying entirely on third-party delivery aggregators.\n\nTillster's platform supports omnichannel digital ordering across web, iOS, Android, and kiosk form factors, with consistent menu management, loyalty integration, and promotional tools across all channels. Its kiosk solution is deployed in thousands of restaurant locations, enabling upselling through AI-driven recommendations and reducing cashier labor costs. Tillster's loyalty and CRM features allow restaurant brands to build owned guest relationships, offering personalized promotions and rewards that drive repeat visits.\n\nTillster's enterprise focus and long track record in digital ordering have made it a preferred partner for large restaurant chains including Burger King, KFC, Popeyes, and others. The company competes with PAX Technology, Oracle's digital ordering suite, and Olo in the enterprise digital ordering space, differentiating through its ability to deliver fully branded, custom digital experiences and its experience managing high-volume ordering infrastructure for global restaurant brands. Tillster is backed by private equity and continues to invest in AI-powered personalization and kiosk technology.
