Union Pocket
Union Pocket (handheld POS)
Union's most streamlined handheld path: iPhone in pocket, full check control, and Tap to Pay on iPhone where your program supports it, often without a separate card reader.
Build a tableside flow that keeps servers with guests: take orders on a pocketable iPhone, sync with Union POS, and let people pay the way they expect without trekking back to a fixed terminal for every modifier.
Apple Tap to Pay and device eligibility follow Union and Apple program rules. Omega helps you confirm what is live for your venue and processor.
Increase efficiency by taking orders at the table
Save time by skipping the run back to a fixed terminal just to punch in modifiers or coursing changes.
- Let staff cover more tables with the same headcount.
- Reduce guest wait time on busy sections.
- Improve table turns when checks move faster.
Fold Union Pocket into your service model with Omega so processing, devices, and training stay on one plan.
No more clunky handhelds
If your current brick does not fit in a pocket, Union Pocket is built around a familiar iPhone form factor. Add to orders, transfer tables, split checks, and take payment without juggling a separate reader when your configuration supports it.
Apple Tap to Pay on iPhone
When enabled for your account, guests can tap cards, phones, or wearables to the iPhone with no dangling dongle on every shift. Terms and availability are set by Apple and your processor; we help you understand what applies before you standardize on Pocket.
Tap to Pay program details vary by processor and eligibility; Omega can confirm your exact setup during rollout.
Accept secure payments without a card reader
Tired of flaky readers and awkward tipping moments? Union bundles multiple paths depending on your setup:
- Tap to Pay on iPhone: guest taps to the NFC field on a compatible iPhone.
- Scan to Pay: QR-driven checkout from the guest's own phone when you run that flow.
- Guest-led digital pay: pair with guest-led ordering so tabs stay in sync.
Bring your own device (where it makes sense)
Union Pocket targets iPhone 12 and later. Refurbished hardware is often inexpensive, and Union's app ships from the App Store so activation can be minutes, not a multi-week hardware queue.
- • Omega can help with procurement, or you supply compatible devices.
- • We align BYOD plans with your security, insurance, and loss-prevention policies, not just the sticker price.
Connect guest-led ordering to streamlined tableside service
Guests can scan to open tabs and browse while staff use Pocket for check-ins, upsells, comps, and approvals, then guests settle when they are ready. The combination is designed to lift throughput without turning the floor into a tech support line.
