ready2order: cost, fit and limits
ready2order is a cloud cash register system made by ready2order GmbH in Vienna that sells a point of sale license per device, with gastro, cashbook and fiscal packages and its own hardware line. It targets small shops, cafes and service businesses in Austria and Germany.
What to know first
ready2order prices almost everything on its page: the license per device, each add-on package, every hardware item and the training sessions. The license is 35.90 euros per device per month plus a one-time activation fee, and Austria and Germany each need an extra fiscal package. Nothing about AI appears on the pricing page, so the case for it is price clarity and local compliance.

Who ready2order is best for
Cafes with table service
The Gastro package adds table management and kitchen or bar ordering for 23.90 euros per month, priced separately so counter-only shops skip it.
Austrian shops
The page lists a signature certificate package for Austria at 12 euros per month, which covers the certificate the register needs in that country.
German shops
A TSE package for Germany is listed at 15.90 euros per month, the fiscal security module German registers require. The package is billed per device, so two registers mean two TSE modules.
Owners who want one hardware vendor
The page lists registers, tablets, printers, scanners and cash drawers with prices, so a shop can order a complete counter from one list.
ready2order plans and pricing
| Plan | Price | What it includes |
|---|---|---|
| POS License | 35.90 euros per device per month, or 430.80 euros per year | Per-device license excluding VAT, plus a one-time 99 euro activation fee. Described as tax compliant, with fiscal packages added by country. |
| Gastro Package | 23.90 euros per month, or 286.80 per year | Table management and kitchen or bar ordering for hospitality, added to the POS License. Counter-only shops can skip this package, so a bakery with a hatch pays less than a restaurant with tables. |
| Cashbook | 13.90 euros per month, or 166.80 per year | Digital cash book module for recording cash movements next to sales. It is billed on top of the license for every device that needs it, so count devices before ordering. |
| Digital Receipt | 7.90 euros per month, or 94.80 per year | Sends receipts digitally, in place of printed receipt rolls. A shop that prints few receipts may save paper and roll costs, which the page lists from 1.05 to 1.36 euros per roll. |
| Country packages | Austria 12 euros, Germany TSE 15.90 euros per month | Fiscal modules required by each country, excluding VAT. Annual billing is available at 144 and 190.80 euros. |

What ready2order does
- Per-device licensing
- Each register or tablet carries its own license, so a shop with one till pays for one. Annual billing in advance is cheaper than twelve monthly payments, according to the page.
- Payment options
- readyPay charges a 1.23% transaction fee for common cards and mobile payments, and the SumUp Solo external terminal is listed at 1.39%. Compare these rates with your current provider using your real monthly card volume, because minimum volumes and payout timing are not printed.
- Hardware line
- readyMax 2 with display at 1,199 euros, readyTab at 649 euros, readyGo 2 at 389 euros and readyMini at 279 euros, plus printers and scanners.
- Training packages
- Online Compact Training costs 199 euros for about 60 minutes and Online Full Setup 349 euros for about 90 minutes. The Starter Package is included.
- Fiscal compliance
- Germany needs the TSE package and Austria the signature certificate. Both are priced on the page, so a buyer can see the legal minimum before ordering.
How ready2order handles your data
ready2order GmbH lists its address in Vienna, Austria, with a German mailing address in Berlin, on its imprint page. The imprint and the pricing page state nothing about hosting providers, data retention or AI use. The privacy policy page could not be opened, so the vendor's policy was not checked for this. A buyer should ask where receipts and customer records are stored, how long fiscal data is kept to meet tax rules in Austria and Germany, and what happens to the data on cancellation.
Where ready2order falls short in practice
- Fees stack up fast. A hospitality shop in Germany pays the license, the Gastro package and the TSE package for every device, which is about 75.70 euros per month before hardware and payments.
- No AI on the pages we read. The pricing and imprint pages describe no assistant or analytics model. Owners who want an AI layer must look elsewhere or ask the vendor directly.
- Limited to DACH needs. Fiscal packages exist for Austria and Germany only. A shop elsewhere in Europe gets no listed compliance module. A shop elsewhere in Europe should ask the vendor whether its own local tax rules are supported before ordering anything.
