Hotel & Restaurant POS Payments & Payment Orchestration

Shopify

Global e-commerce platform: hosted storefronts, checkout, payments, customer accounts and order history, plus Shopify POS for physical retail. Not a hospitality product — but increasingly the way hotels with a product line sell it. (The company registry taxonomy has no e-commerce category; filed under POS and payments as the nearest fit.)

What Shopify does

One section per category this provider serves. Each links to the category it competes in and lists the properties running it in that specific role.

Food & Beverage

Hotel & Restaurant POS

Restaurant, bar and retail transactions inside the property. The outlet spend that room-only loyalty schemes systematically ignore.

Running it here: Hotel Weisses Kreuz

Core Operations & Property Management

Payments & Payment Orchestration

Card acquiring, wallets, terminals and the routing between them. The rail a stored balance must eventually settle against.

No listed property records Shopify in this role yet.

Alternatives

Vendors serving the same categories as Shopify.

PAR Technology Corporation
An integrated restaurant technology group combining point of sale (PAR POS), back-office operations (PAR Ops), omnichannel ordering and delivery, payments, and the Punchh customer loyalty and engagement platform acquired in 2021. The strategic pitch is one vendor owning transaction, guest identity and loyalty in the same stack.
Mews
Modern API-first cloud PMS and 'hospitality operating system' with a large marketplace of integrated apps. Beyond the PMS core it ships Mews Distributor (its own commission-free booking engine, served from app.mews.com/distributor/<id>), Mews Payments, Mews POS and Mews Kiosk. Named #1 PMS by Hotel Tech Report three years running; widely deployed across European boutique and mid-scale hotels, including small independent Alpine houses.
Adyen
Adyen is a Dutch financial technology platform that provides end-to-end payment acceptance for large enterprises on a single stack — online, in-app and in-person — combining gateway, risk management, acquiring and settlement, which it can do directly because it holds its own banking licence. Beyond acceptance it sells Adyen Issuing (virtual and physical card issuance), Adyen for Platforms (embedded payments for marketplaces), payouts and business accounts, and a Stored Value API for issuing, activating, loading, balance-checking and merging gift cards. In hospitality it markets a "unified commerce" proposition covering the whole guest journey — booking, check-in, F&B, spa, checkout — with card tokenization for cross-property guest recognition, pre-authorizations with automatic top-ups for incidentals, post-checkout collection of no-shows and late charges, and dynamic currency conversion. It integrates with the major hotel systems (Oracle Hospitality/OPERA, Shiji, Infor HMS, Agilysys, Sabre, Protel, Apaleo, Clock PMS, StayNTouch, TravelClick) and pioneered "proxy tokenization," intercepting the CRS-to-PMS booking message so raw card data never touches the property server.
Gastropool Italien GmbH
The purchasing group for hotels and gastronomy in South Tyrol (Schlachthofstr. 53B, 39100 Bozen), serving ~800 partner businesses with negotiated supplier terms, consolidated monthly invoicing, advisory and a digital platform for purchases, invoices and payments. It also runs member-facing web widgets at secure.gastropool.it/rxwidgets — used by member hotels to collect booking deposits and sell travel-cancellation insurance online.
HOGAST
Purchasing co-operative for hotels and restaurants, and South Tyrol's leading hospitality purchasing organisation. Members buy through framework agreements negotiated by the co-op; alongside procurement it supplies member services including an online payment widget (secure.hogast.it) that hotels embed in their own websites to take deposits and settle bills.
TheFork
TripAdvisor-owned restaurant reservation platform and marketplace across Europe, with its own diner loyalty scheme (Yums) and commission/subscription models for restaurants.

Running several of these systems at once?

Blue connects an existing hotel stack into one guest profile and one loyalty balance across every property — without replacing the PMS.
