Clover alternative
Software built for restaurants and one predictable bill — not a hardware box plus a marketplace of paid apps.
Clover’s strength is flexible hardware and broad distribution, but its restaurant features often depend on third-party apps with their own fees. Novaryq is purpose-built for food & beverage, with the full operation — ordering, kitchen, loyalty, inventory and finance — included.
The capabilities you need are included, not assembled from paid add-ons.
Coursing, modifiers, 86-ing, KDS and floor maps designed for service.
Your storefront, your orders, your guest list.
Transparent per-location pricing in Canadian dollars. Payment processing is billed separately by the processor.

In most cases yes — online ordering, loyalty, inventory, reporting and delivery are native to Novaryq, so you typically replace several separate apps with one platform.
No single term applies to every plan. Month-to-month and annual options are available; annual pricing carries a committed term, cancellation follows the signed agreement, and your data remains exportable.
Yes — POS, online ordering, kitchen display, payments, loyalty, marketing, inventory and staff run on one platform with one login and one bill, so your core operations share the same menu, orders and reporting instead of living in separate tools.
