TouchBistro pricing in Canada (2026)
TouchBistro is one of the best-known restaurant POS names in Canada, but its pricing page leaves a few things out: the currency, the kitchen display price and the processing rates. Here is exactly what it publishes, checked line by line, and what you still have to ask for.
TouchBistro pricing at a glance
TouchBistro publishes two priced plans: Point of Sale starting at $69 per month and the Essentials Bundle starting at $119 per month, plus a quote-based Custom Setup — and its pricing page prints no currency. This site treats the figures as USD by default (set the exchange rate to 1.0 in the calculator if your quote is in CAD); if you are billed in USD, your Canadian cost moves with the exchange rate. We verified every figure on this page on September 19, 2026 from TouchBistro's own pricing page (touchbistro.com/pricing).
Both priced plans are "starting at" figures, so the invoice depends on the quote you receive. Point of Sale is software only (hardware required, payments not included). Essentials is labelled "Best Value – Hardware Included" and adds integrated payments and restaurant-grade hardware, with the note that "payment processing and additional fees apply."
TouchBistro plans and monthly prices
One row per plan, exactly as printed. Where TouchBistro prints no figure, the table says "Quote-based" instead of guessing.

What is and isn't included
The headline plan price is only part of the monthly bill. Here is what TouchBistro's pricing page does and does not tell you about the rest.
- Kitchen display: not listed in either priced plan, and no per-screen price is printed; ask for it in a quote.
- Card processing: not published. No processing rates are printed; Essentials says "payment processing and additional fees apply."
- Hardware: prices are not printed. The Point of Sale plan says "hardware required"; Essentials bundles hardware into its monthly price.
- Extra terminals: no per-terminal software fee is printed; the page says "starting at" for both priced plans.
- Setup fees and contract length: not printed on the pricing page. Ask for both in writing before you sign.
Who TouchBistro fits
TouchBistro fits full-service restaurants that want a mature iPad-based system with a large installer network in Canada and are prepared to get a quote for kitchen display, online ordering and payments.
Two caveats to budget for: both priced plans are "starting at" figures, so the invoice depends on the quote; and no currency is printed, so if you are billed in USD, the Canadian cost moves with the exchange rate.
How Waitery compares
Waitery is $14 CAD per location per month for the whole platform, published in Canadian dollars, with free setup. Kitchen display software is included with no per-screen fee, and there is no per-terminal software fee, so the number of screens and handhelds is an operational choice rather than a billing one. The guest, kitchen and server experience runs in English and French.
Hardware is Waitery's own, shipped Canada-wide: buy outright or lease over 48 months, with a 1-year warranty. Processing rates are quoted per restaurant, so ask during your demo. Put your own numbers into the calculator below to see the two side by side.
