“Biometric check in and biometric check out features can increase ticket size, speed and loyalty engagement of restaurant operators. Together, we are taking the restaurant ordering customer journey to new heights.”

A customer that chooses to use the new technology can enrol in the service and then ‘check in’ with a face scan.

Once completed, the customer will be able to view their orders from that particular location, including their favourite modifications and order add-ons.

PopID and Cali Group CEO John Miller said: “Rising labour costs have resulted in restaurant operators across America adopting Tyme self-ordering kiosks.
