RightPlace with SkyTab

SkyTab POS: keep SkyTab on payments, give the door its own screen.

SkyTab is built to run your orders and payments. RightPlace runs beside it in a web browser to handle the waitlist, the kitchen pass and the guests deciding where to go tonight.

Keep SkyTab doing what it does best

SkyTab rings up the sale, runs the card and keeps your menu, checks and payments. RightPlace leaves all of that alone. It covers the parts of the night that happen before and around the check: the door, the line, the kitchen pass, the guests who are deciding where to go tonight, and the regulars you want back next week.

Nothing to install on SkyTab, nothing to switch off, and nothing to retrain on the register. No hardware required.

Where RightPlace runs on a SkyTab setup

Plan on a separate screen for RightPlace: any tablet, laptop, phone or other device with a web browser.
Set it at the host stand or the kitchen pass, sign in with your spot’s code, and you’re running.
If your SkyTab device opens a web browser, RightPlace runs there too; Shift4, the company behind SkyTab, can tell you.

Tip: keep a spare device or two charged in case a server’s phone dies. Staff can use their own devices if they like.

Get more out of SkyTab (advice any spot can use)

Use your SkyTab sales reports to find your slowest night and hour, then put one deal on exactly that window.
Keep the waitlist off the register on busy nights, so checkout never waits behind the door.
Keep a spare device or two charged. If one dies mid-service, the door keeps moving.
Tell the floor about an 86 at once. Tap “86 an item” in RightPlace’s kitchen screen and server phones, the host stand and the Door TV all show it sold out.
Tap Rung in with the SkyTab check number when a RightPlace ticket goes on the register, so nothing gets made without being rung.

What RightPlace adds beside SkyTab

A posted wait guests can see: The host posts the wait with one tap. Guests looking for a spot tonight see it with the time it was updated, and can tap On the way.
Deals that fill slow nights: Post a deal from the host stand with a start, an end and a photo. Guests see a countdown, so a Tuesday special works on Tuesday.
A kitchen screen for RightPlace orders: Food ordered ahead and server phone orders show on a kitchen screen. A "Rung in" list shows which tickets still need to go on SkyTab, with the check number once they do.
A TV by the door: Any smart TV shows the wait, tonight’s specials, games and photos from tonight.
Table requests by scan code: A guest scans the code on the table to ask for a refill, the check or a to-go box. It goes to that table’s server.
A Night Report in plain numbers: Parties seated through RightPlace, deals used and times, counted from your staff’s taps. Your sales numbers stay in SkyTab.

Already have a waitlist or reservations?

If you already use a waitlist or reservations tool with SkyTab, keep it. RightPlace’s biggest help is bringing people in: guests looking for a spot tonight see the wait you posted and your deals, tap On the way, and come back for the perks you set. You can also run the waitlist on RightPlace; pick whichever your host likes.

Set it up in a few minutes

Pick a screen: Use a screen you already have where it can open a web browser, or any tablet, laptop or phone beside the register.
Open getrightplace.app: Sign in with your spot’s 6-digit code. There is nothing to download from an app store.
Bring your menu over: Export your items as a CSV file, or paste your menu or your website’s menu page. You see everything before it saves.
Run a night: The host stand, kitchen, servers and Door TV each open on their own screen. Payments keep going through SkyTab.

SkyTab is a trademark of its owner. RightPlace is a separate company, not affiliated with or endorsed by SkyTab, and RightPlace does not connect to SkyTab: it runs beside it in a web browser.

Questions owners ask

Can RightPlace run on my SkyTab device?

Plan on a separate screen: any tablet, laptop or phone with a web browser. If your SkyTab device opens a browser, RightPlace runs there too; Shift4 can tell you.

I still run Harbortouch. Does this page apply?

Yes. Harbortouch and SkyTab are both brands of Shift4, and RightPlace runs the same way beside either one: on any device with a web browser.

Can I import my SkyTab menu?

Export your items as a CSV file, or paste your menu or your website’s menu page. You see everything before it saves.

Does RightPlace replace SkyTab?

No. SkyTab keeps every sale, card payment and check. RightPlace never takes payment and runs beside your register in a web browser.
