What your venue is losing every month without VenueCore.
Skim, voids, and overpriced card terminals quietly bleed UK independents. Move the sliders to match your venue — the right column is real money you're walking past.
modelled on £96,992 monthly revenue
That's 1.5× the subscription, paid back every month. Most operators are funding their POS, KDS, CRM and finance stack out of money they didn't know they were losing.

No long-term software contract.
The software is month-to-month with no minimum term: cancel any time on 30 days' written notice, effective at the end of the current billing period. Hardware and implementation are a one-off charge, non-refundable once provisioning has started. Every piece of hardware is yours outright from day one — never leased, never rented, and never remotely locked or disabled because of subscription status. Stay because it works, not because you're locked in.
- →No minimum term on the software — 30 days' written notice, any time.
- →Notice takes effect at the end of the current billing period; no partial-month refunds.
- →You own every piece of hardware outright from day one.
- →Hardware is never leased, rented, remotely locked, or held as collateral.

- →Your data exports in full on the way out — bookings, menu, staff, finance.
You own the hardware. Always.
All hardware supplied by VenueCore is purchased and owned by your venue from the moment it is installed. There is no lease, no rental agreement, no return clause, and no remote lock or kill switch tied to your subscription. If you ever leave VenueCore, the equipment stays with you. Other software may stop working; your till, printer, drawer and screens do not.
- →Hardware is purchased, not leased — ownership transfers to you on install.
- →No remote lock, kill switch, or subscription-dependent disablement.
- →No return clause at the end of a contract; there is no contract to end.
- →You can have the equipment serviced, moved, or reused by any provider you choose.
- →The only recurring charge is the software subscription; the kit is yours.

30% off the monthly fee for 12 months.
For the first 10 venues that go live. Hardware & implementation stays full price — we don't subsidise kit.
Most restaurants pay for several separate systems.
VenueCore replaces the typical stack with one integrated operating system — one login, one dataset, one bill.
Questions operators actually ask.
No. We charge a flat monthly platform fee. Your bookings, your data, your margin.
Yes — with evidence rather than a countdown clock. Send us last week's sales, labour and stock and we'll return a free Leakage Audit in writing, showing exactly where VenueCore would look for margin in your venue. There's no free software trial: VenueCore needs hardware installed and your menu migrated to be worth judging. Instead you get the strongest possible exit — no long-term software contract, cancel on 30 days' written notice, and the hardware is yours outright either way.
Yes — we ship an iPad POS and KDS. You can also keep your existing till and connect it; finance and menu still flow through VenueCore.
Group is billed per venue with a cross-venue dashboard included. Pricing is annual and includes onboarding for each new opening.
Always. One click exports bookings, menu, staff, and finance to CSV or JSON. We don't lock data behind tier upgrades.
EU (Frankfurt) by default. Card data is out-of-scope and handled by Stripe (PCI DSS Level 1). SOC 2 and ISO 27001 are on the roadmap, not yet certified — we don't claim badges we haven't earned.
The first 10 venues to go live get 30% off the monthly software fee for 12 months. The setup fee and any hardware are charged at full price — we don't subsidise kit. Apply on the Founding Partner page and the discount is applied at checkout automatically.
Payments are part of the platform, not a bolt-on. You take cards on VenueCore's rates — 1.69% + 15p in person, 1.99% + 20p online — with no separate acquirer contract, no monthly minimums and settlement in your own Stripe Connect account. Those rates include VenueCore's margin above the underlying processor cost, which is how we keep the software fee flat instead of charging per cover.
You aren't. There is no minimum term on the software — cancel any time on 30 days' written notice, effective at the end of your current billing period. Hardware and implementation are a one-off charge and non-refundable once provisioning has started. The hardware is yours outright from day one, with no lease, no return clause and no remote lock. We'd rather keep you because the system works.
It's quoted per configuration, not per venue: £995 for a single till, £1,995 for two tills plus a kitchen screen, £3,995 for two full sites. Larger or multi-room builds are quoted after a short site survey. It covers configured hardware, networking, installation, menu and floor-plan setup, training and go-live support — and you own the equipment outright.
You own it. Every piece of VenueCore hardware is purchased and owned by your venue from the moment it is installed. It is never leased, rented, remotely locked, or disabled because of subscription status. If you leave VenueCore, the kit stays with you.
Commodity Windows touchscreens, commercial Epson thermal printers on Ethernet, standard cash drawers and proper wired networking. We deliberately save on the computer — easy and cheap to replace — and spend on the printer, because that's the part that gets hammered every service.
