In Formula 1 racing, every part of the car matters, and every pit crew member plays a crucial role in keeping things moving at top speed. Restaurant operations are no different. Your food service business is a high-performance machine, and at PAR, our role is to make sure everything under the hood works at top speed and in perfect sync, no matter what parts you’re already racing with.
We design our restaurant solutions to work together or alongside any technology you choose. With 500+ integration partners, PAR keeps your systems running in sync so you can stay in motion and operate at full speed. Think of us as your pit crew – fine-tuning your tools, removing friction, and keeping everything optimized so you can focus on the guest experience and stay ahead of the pack.
Point-of-Sale: The Engine Behind a Connected Restaurant
In high-performing restaurants, the point of sale is the engine that drives the operation. But even the best engine needs to work in sync with the rest of the machine. That’s why PAR POS is built with an API-first, open architecture—giving you the freedom to design a tech stack that fits your strategy, not someone else’s limitations.
With over 350 integration partners, PAR POS connects seamlessly to the systems you already trust – loyalty, payments, AI, drive-thru, and more – so your tools work together without friction.
Too often, brands end up in custom dev hell – spending time and money on one-off integrations that break with every update or business change. It’s like building a new race car just to change a tire. PAR’s APIs are built to avoid that trap: modular, reliable, and ready to plug in what you need, when you need it.
Think of us as your F1 pit crew – fine-tuning your systems, removing friction, and keeping everything running at top speed so you can focus on what matters: serving guests and staying ahead.

Back-of-House: Directing Your Path in Real-Time
Even the fastest drivers can’t win without a sharp race engineer: someone who sees the whole picture, interprets all the data, and knows your priorities. That’s the role PAR OPS plays in your restaurant operation. PAR OPS gives you full visibility into your multi-unit operations – from inventory and labor to analytics and third-party delivery – so you can make smarter decisions that drive profits.
Purpose-built to connect with the systems you already run, PAR OPS centralizes your data, pulling in information from your POS, accounting, HRIS, third-party delivery portals, and more into one place. That way, you can see where to improve and be nimble enough to adjust on the fly. It’s flexible, fast, and designed to scale, whether you’re running one location or a full fleet.

Hardware: The Chassis That Holds It All Together
Even the fastest engines can’t win the race without the right chassis. That’s what PAR hardware delivers: a durable, enterprise-grade foundation built to keep up with the demands of real restaurant life. From rugged POS terminals and KDS screens that don’t flinch under pressure to drive-thru systems built for speed and clarity, our hardware is purpose-built to integrate with your tech stack and perform in any environment. Reliable, scalable, and ready to deploy, think of us as the chassis your race depends on, engineered for impact, built for control, and designed to handle whatever the track throws your way.
Victory isn’t won by chance, it’s engineered!
It takes front-of-house POS, payments, and back-of-house systems that talk to each other, tools that know where all the dangerous corners are on the racetrack, and a partner who knows how to keep it all firing. That’s what we offer at PAR.
