We’re a hospitality-led software provider.
Since Kobas was founded, we have focused solely on hospitality, collaborating with pubs, bars, restaurants, and more sectors of all sizes to develop industry-specific software. Over 70% of our team brings hands-on experience from working in hospitality across kitchens, front-of-house, head office, and many other roles. From day one, you’ll be working with a team that knows how to support your business because we’ve been there too.
“Kobas have been fantastic in meeting the growing needs of our venues. They listened to our vision, requirements, and ideas, and helped to find solutions to our challenges. Initially this was simple-to-use EPoS, but grew to include a detailed stock system, loyalty scheme and full-lifecycle HR system.”
Andy Perritt
Owner, Beer + Burger
“Having a single system that fully integrates with our EPoS, stock system, rota and customer loyalty program has completely centralised the operations of our pub group. This has saved us time and money across all areas of the business and allowed us to deliver a better guest experience.”
Sean Kelly
Finance Director, True North Brew Co
“I’ve had a few people ask me what till system we’re using and I always say Kobas. If they ask me do you recommend it, I say absolutely. If I have a question, our Account Manager answers instantly. It’s an all in one solution to everything you need and the team is really lovely with helping you make changes, or just anything you need really.”

Operations Manager, Pizza Brixton

Is hardware provided with Kobas?
Kobas works with a variety of hardware suppliers to provide our clients with the latest and most reliable hardware options. This includes modern touchscreen terminals to run your EPoS software, as well as peripheral items such as customer facing screens, barcode scanners, and more. If you require new hardware, our team will provide a quote with a one-off purchase price. That means the hardware will be owned by you.
We understand that businesses may already have hardware in their venues and want to continue using it. The good news is, Kobas is happy to accommodate and we have a growing list of hardware that we have successfully tested and reused. To guarantee optimal performance of your new software, it will need to meet our minimum specifications which our team can assess for you.
