Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

The things every new restaurant owner asks us during their first call.

How long does onboarding take?
For a single-location restaurant, most new SpiceApp clients are fully live within 5–7 business days. That includes hardware shipping, menu build, staff training, and a guided go-live shift with our Philly team. Multi-location and franchise rollouts follow a phased schedule we'll build with you.

Do you offer in-person training in the Philadelphia area?
Yes. For clients in PA, NJ, and DE within driving distance of King of Prussia, our team comes on-site for installation, training, and your go-live shift — at no extra cost. For clients further out, we run the same playbook over video and ship pre-configured hardware. Learn more about on-site support →
What hardware do I need to get started?
A typical SpiceApp setup includes a POS terminal, receipt printer, kitchen printer or KDS screen, cash drawer, and our Caller ID device. We'll spec the exact bundle for your restaurant during onboarding — and most clients finance the hardware for around $64/month. POS Lite runs on any modern browser with minimal hardware.

Can I import my data from my old POS?
Yes — we routinely migrate menus, customer lists, and historical sales data from Toast, Square, and Clover. Our team handles the export, mapping, and import as part of onboarding. Read the migration guide →
Is there a contract?
No contract obligations. SpiceApp is month-to-month at a flat $150 per location, and you can cancel anytime. If you're locked into a contract with another provider, talk to us — the savings often make switching worthwhile even with a buyout.
What's the difference between SpiceApp POS and POS Lite?
Full SpiceApp POS includes dedicated hardware, white-glove onboarding, and full access to AI Dashboard, KDS, Caller ID, and integrations. POS Lite is a browser-based, mostly self-service tier at a lower monthly price — built for new and small restaurants that want to start lean and upgrade later. Compare plans →
How does support work after I'm live?
Live chat and phone support are included with every plan. Our hours mirror restaurant hours — we're open evenings and weekends — and tri-state clients get priority on-site visits when something physical needs fixing. Our average first response is under 4 minutes during open hours.
