What Makes Katalyst POS System Different?
Our founders started Katalyst OS because they saw a major gap in the market. As restaurant owners, Dan Ronald, Cole Dillon and Scott Bleczinski had extensive experience with POS systems and merchant services such as Clover Flex and were well aware of their shortcomings. After years of dealing with clunky, rigid POS systems that accept payments, the trio resolved to develop a solution that would be flexible, simple, and modern – the POS sales system they’d always wanted but could never find. And so, Katalyst was born.

What is a Flex POS System?
A Flex POS (Point of Sale) system stands out from other merchant services due to its flexibility. Unlike traditional POS systems such as Clover Flex from Clover Network, which are stationary and are typically installed on a desktop computer or dedicated terminals, Flex POS systems can operate on portable devices such as tablets, smartphones or any other mobile device. Every handheld device is connected via wifi or LTE connectivity to connect to the rest of the system, utilizing end to end encryption to protect your company data.
This also opens up the possibility to accept contactless payments via Google Pay and Apple Pay. These systems for accepting payments are usually cloud-based, allowing for automatic saving, updates, and analytics. In contrast, traditional POS systems require manual updates and backups, and many of them do not support contactless payments.
Another significant difference between traditional and Flex POS systems is the scalability of each. While Flex POS allows restaurants to effortlessly add more registers, locations, or features as your business grows, traditional POS systems demand a more complex, extensive setup. Flex POS solutions also support contactless payments such as google pay. Overall, Flex POS systems are ideal for businesses that plan to grow and expand.
