Keep more cash. Keep loyalty included.
Rewardly combines POS and LoyaltyOS in your Professional subscription. Hawker POS keeps core selling software free. Compare the complete commitment—not just the government grant discount.
For growing F&B businesses that value a connected platform and flexible device choices.
For a stall that needs straightforward ordering and cashier operations.
The subsidy lowers eligible package costs. Equipment still needs its own budget.
* Published spend comparison, hardware excluded: Rewardly’s six-month starting software charge is lower than every listed entry package after its estimated grant. Competitor amounts include implementation/training and often a longer licence period; capabilities and service scope differ. This is an entry-spend advantage, not a verified matched-TCO saving. Hardware subsidy exclusion follows the supplied confirmation for these packages.
Professional includes full LoyaltyOS; Growth includes Lite. The three separate loyalty/marketing packages below add S$4,213–8,500 after their listed estimated grants if purchased.
Your Rewardly subscription still applies. Use the included loyalty capabilities before considering another platform and another implementation project.

Compare the requirement, not just the product name. These are optional stand-alone purchases, not compulsory add-ons to every POS. EPOS’s POS package already includes CRM; Marketing AI expands into WhatsApp and AI marketing. Some other POS tiers already include advanced loyalty. Do not add a separate platform where existing functions meet the need, or assume identical capabilities across these products.
* S$702.17–1,416.67 in additional monthly contribution is needed to recover these net package costs in six months, before other uncovered costs. That is contribution after rewards, discounts and variable delivery/payment costs—not just additional sales.
If invoices are paid before reimbursement, the gross S$6,713–11,000 loyalty-package price may need funding first, plus the POS and hardware budget. Actual instalments and grant timing must be confirmed. A separate purchase can put pressure on cash flow; its ROI depends on the extra contribution it generates.
Recovery hurdle = net package commitment ÷ 6; it is an illustrative six-month payback target, not a six-month subscription price or a forecast. Licence periods, renewal terms and usage fees remain quote items. LoyaltyOS inclusion does not mean Hawker POS includes the same loyalty suite.
One outlet, 5,000 contacts and unlimited admins. Points/tiers, rewards, campaigns, referrals, customer portal, wallet cards, gift cards and POS/e-commerce/API integration. Ongoing support listed.
Confirm renewal, contact increases, messaging, integrations and service entitlements. Licence duration not specified in captured package table.
One outlet, up to 7,000 customers and unlimited users. Loyalty plus WhatsApp chatbot/promotions, payment links, customer profiling and AI marketing. Setup/migration and training included.
EPOS POS already includes CRM. This is a separate enhanced marketing/AI purchase, not proof that EPOS charges this for all basic loyalty functions. Confirm WhatsApp usage fees. Licence duration not specified in captured package table.
Customer app, loyalty administration, marketing, contacts, WhatsApp/email/SMS communications, product/transaction management, analytics and reports. Requirements work, migration, acceptance testing and training included.
Hardware marked N.A. Additional services S$700/day and training S$1,000/day. Messaging and renewal charges need confirmation. Licence duration not specified in captured package table.
Budget hardware separately for every option. Under the confirmed comparison basis, hardware is outside the grant subsidy. Rewardly’s compatible-device approach lets you reuse suitable equipment or choose what to buy.
If both quotes need the same hardware spend, that amount does not close Rewardly’s published software/package price gap. Existing-device savings depend on compatibility; NPOS and IDEKU also offer BYOD.
Rewardly is highlighted in green. Package prices use each listing’s own estimated grant figure. Neither grant approval nor payment timing is assumed.
S$1,250 after estimated grant − S$594 for six months.
Starting plan entitlements need confirmation. Hardware, transaction fees and additional services are excluded.
All-modules scenario assumes S$199 is the total monthly charge, not an incremental upgrade. An annual package is shown as its full purchase commitment; it is not labelled a six-month subscription. The comparison keeps grant packages’ included implementation visible rather than assuming an identical service bundle.
A connected product family for selling, retention and operations. Capabilities below describe product scope; selected-plan inclusions must be confirmed.
Documented iOS/Android support and multiple terminal/printer brands give Rewardly a practical device-choice advantage. Reuse compatible equipment to avoid unnecessary replacement.
LoyaltyOS is part of the subscription. Professional includes full LoyaltyOS, helping avoid a separate loyalty licence purchase when its capabilities fit your needs.
Counter sales, QR, kiosk, kitchen workflow, stock and integrations can support a growing operation. Confirm the plan, modules and connector fees that match the business.

* Hardware is budgeted separately on both sides under the confirmed comparison basis. Grant estimates are package-specific, conditional on approval and not necessarily reimbursed within six months. No automatic 50% rate has been applied to higher-tier packages.
A compelling starting point for F&B businesses seeking low initial software spend, device choice and connected selling and loyalty tools.
A compelling choice for basic stalls: free core software, a focused workflow and compatible-device deployment. Budget setup and payment services separately.
Compare SME digitalisation support with a direct POS subscription for a restaurant, café or hawker stall. Check the activity, eligible costs and complete quote before choosing.
EDGE replaces the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG), Enterprise Development Grant (EDG) and Market Readiness Assistance (MRA) for new applications from 30 September 2026. Existing submissions and projects continue through their applicable process. Official EDGE guidance.
If you are searching for a “new PSG grant,” the current scheme to check is EDGE. PSG is retained here as the familiar former scheme name, not a new programme accepting fresh applications. PSG transition notice.
This comparison budgets hardware separately for the packages assessed. That is not a universal hardware exclusion across every government grant activity. Check the approved scope, device supply, installation, support term and renewal fees. A kiosk software licence does not establish that a kiosk machine is supplied.
Yes, the advertised starting commitment can be lower. Compare Rewardly’s monthly subscription with the selected net package, then reconcile hardware, service scope and licence duration. Grant-funded software is not automatically the cheaper complete system. Explore the POS cost comparison.
The three separate loyalty and marketing listings show why additional software matters. Rewardly Professional includes LoyaltyOS, while optional specialist packages carry their own commitments. Compare functionality before adding another platform. Compare loyalty software costs.
EDGE uses reimbursement: claims follow completion and full payment. Budget for the payment schedule, uncovered costs and the time before reimbursement. Official reimbursement terms.
This comparison does not establish grant approval for either product. Their advertised commercial prices are presented without assuming a subsidy. Confirm current solution and activity eligibility with the official listing and approval terms.

Hardware supply was not established from any complete bill of materials in the reviewed government package tables. Atlas explicitly excludes kiosk hardware. Lunchbox’s current vendor offer mentions a hardware bundle, but that does not establish inclusion in its separate CBS S government package. LFSuite is a useful positive exception on service disclosure: DineConnect explicitly includes software/remote support and updates; duration and hardware coverage still require confirmation.
Do not add setup/training twice: the published subtotals above already include the listed implementation. Conversely, a “kiosk licence” or “onsite hardware installation” is not a physical kiosk, payment terminal, printer, cash drawer, router or replacement warranty.
These are documented offers and claims, not verified deployment quality. “Not verified” means the reviewed public evidence did not establish the capability; it does not mean the vendor lacks it. API openness requires documented endpoints, access rules, credentials, commercial terms, export rights and version policy—not just a named integration.

Sources: baseline links above and each vendor’s package/official links in the profiles below. AI benefit, accuracy, production availability and usage limits were not tested. Existing POS integration is not identical to hardware portability; payment-terminal certification can impose constraints even on BYOD software.
Feature statements below refer to the selected entry package unless a higher tier or vendor-wide capability is explicitly named. The government’s general solution feature ticks are not treated as proof that every feature is bundled in the cheapest package.
Features: QR ordering, own delivery/pickup, loyalty, analytics and Xero in A. Inventory appears in C/D/E; additional delivery integration in B/D/E.
Sales channels: QR; own delivery/pickup. Counter POS and KDS inclusion need confirmation.
Comparison: A useful ordering and loyalty comparison for Rewardly, but its entry package does not establish a complete counter POS replacement. Broader customer and delivery functions than Hawker POS’s documented scope.
Cost check: Additional services or training: $400 per day. Obtain licence period, POS dependency, terminal/printer bill of materials and support entitlement.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$6,500 / S$9,700 / S$9,700 / S$10,500 / S$11,300.
Features: QR/payment, inventory, customer management, promotions and analytics. Accounting and delivery are higher packages.
Sales channels: Vendor family: counter POS, QR, kiosk, iPad menu and wireless waiter ordering.
Comparison: Wider physical restaurant ordering options challenge Rewardly on operations. Rewardly has clearer public BYOD positioning; Hawker POS addresses a much narrower stall workflow.
Cost check: Onsite initial training is included; that does not establish ongoing onsite support. Match terminal, printer and payment-terminal costs separately.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$8,050 / S$9,400 / S$10,000 / S$11,350.
Features: A includes in-store self-ordering, CRM, analytics and inventory. D combines in-store, pickup and delivery; E adds Xero.
Sales channels: In-store plus own online pickup/delivery at higher tiers; courier integrations listed.
Comparison: A substantive Rewardly competitor for managed ordering and fulfilment. Compare Rewardly’s required channel bundle against D/E, not just Getz A. Hawker POS has no equivalent verified delivery orchestration.
Cost check: The $6,240 entry price is not the complete omnichannel package. Delivery monitoring/customer service wording is not a general POS support SLA.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$6,240 / S$7,560 / S$9,720 / S$11,880 / S$13,600.
Features: Base: QR/payment, menu, promotions, customer management, analytics, delivery integration and inventory. Fuller ordering and kiosk packages cost more.
Sales channels: Vendor family: POS, QR, kiosk and kitchen routing; base is mobile ordering.
Comparison: Broader restaurant workflow is a credible Rewardly alternative. Its entry price is an ordering subscription package, not a like-for-like Hawker counter terminal bundle.
Cost check: Do not halve the annual fee unless six-month cancellation/refund is contractual. Extra services and training are $100/hour; kiosk software is not proof of a physical kiosk.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$4,780 / S$6,780 / S$7,980 / S$10,780 / S$13,380.
Government package · Vendor
Features: Digital ordering, menu, customer management, promotions, analytics and inventory. QR and OrderHub appear in the base body despite higher-tier titles and separate add-ons.
Sales channels: Vendor family: POS, QR, kiosk, web/mobile ordering and kitchen/queue tools.
Comparison: A close functional Rewardly challenger with a low listed entry price. API availability is not unique to Rewardly. Much broader than Hawker POS, with greater implementation scope.
Cost check: Resolve base QR/OrderHub scope in writing. Additional QR $1,140/year; OrderHub $720/year; ordering $360/year; extra services/training $800/day.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$3,320 / S$6,380 / S$6,980 / S$7,700 / S$7,700.
Features: S: QR, basic CRM, promotions, menu and analytics. Inventory/Xero/Grab appear as add-ons within the subtotal. M adds kiosk; L adds advanced CRM and AI upselling.
Sales channels: Vendor family: Android POS, QR and kiosk; offline operation advertised.
Comparison: The strongest listed low-price challenge to Rewardly in this set; AI is not a Rewardly-exclusive differentiator. More capabilities than Hawker POS, with a substantially larger published package commitment.
Cost check: Vendor Starter and government CBS S are different offers: do not transfer hardware inclusion. Clarify bundled add-ons. Extra setup, migration or training blocks are $300 each.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$2,500 / S$3,500 / S$4,500.
Features: Standard: QR/payments, promotions, points, analytics and accounting. Delivery starts at Standard Plus; inventory in advanced tiers; kiosk explicitly in Advanced.
Sales channels: QR, delivery and kiosk vary by package; wider vendor ecosystem includes mobile POS and consumer ordering.
Comparison: Strong loyalty and AI-menu competition for Rewardly. Evaluate the actual AI workflow and selected tier. Hawker POS is simpler and does not document comparable customer/AI functions.
Cost check: Higher tiers do not list identical feature combinations; verify the exact mix. Additional services/training $800/day; support pricing and coverage term remain unclear.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$5,960 / S$7,600 / S$8,920 / S$9,360 / S$12,120.
Features: Base static QR, payment/POS integration, basic inventory/CRM, promo codes and analytics. Higher tiers include KDS, dynamic QR, advanced stock and loyalty.
Sales channels: POS, QR, kiosk and online ordering; Kings AI adds WhatsApp ordering at vendor level.
Comparison: A strong Rewardly competitor on API evidence, conversational ordering and kitchen workflows. Hawker POS does not document comparable integration depth. This is a different vendor from APPZPOS.
Cost check: Base body also lists modules priced separately: Lalamove $1,000, Xero $1,000 and advanced CRM $1,220 per licence. SMS fees explicitly excluded. Confirm scope before comparing.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$3,800 / S$5,928 / S$7,508 / S$7,288 / S$9,988.
Features: Basic QR: static/dynamic ordering, upsell, analytics, coupons/cashback and Xero. Advanced options expand payment/delivery/inventory functions.
Sales channels: POS and QR; delivery integration depends on tier. Local/cloud and offline operation described by vendor.
Comparison: Directly challenges Rewardly’s hardware-flexibility claim: BYOD is not unique. More documented loyalty/accounting scope than Hawker POS, at a larger package price.
Cost check: Two hours of onsite training are listed without a separate training price. Do not add an invented training charge. Confirm hardware compatibility and ongoing service costs.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$5,600 / S$6,100 / S$11,270 / S$11,770 / S$8,350.
Features: Base DinePlan server, QR, cloud management, customer stored value/vouchers, analytics and two delivery connectors. Higher packages add inventory, accounting and kiosk.
Sales channels: Vendor family: POS, QR, kiosk, kitchen/waiter/queue tools and online ordering.
Comparison: A serious operational alternative to Rewardly; mixed perpetual/subscription economics may differ over longer use. Hawker POS is not equivalent to its multi-module QSR scope.
Cost check: Remote support/upgrades are explicitly included for DineConnect, but duration, onsite service and hardware warranty remain unresolved. Extra services/training $560/day.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$6,480 / S$8,800 / S$9,760 / S$11,720 / S$14,160.
Features: Standard: ordering/payment software, menu, promotions, CRM, analytics and inventory. Advanced adds delivery/accounting; highest combines QR and kiosk.
Sales channels: POS product family; selected $8,100 package is either QR or kiosk. Both are in the higher package.
Comparison: Broad inventory/CRM and implementation compete with Rewardly. A higher headline package price alone does not prove worse value or higher matched TCO. Hawker POS has narrower scope.
Cost check: A kiosk-software line does not establish kiosk hardware supply. Do not substitute an unrelated EPOS retail or promotional hardware bundle. Extra services/training $800/day.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$8,100 / S$8,100 / S$10,600 / S$12,400.
Government package · F&B solution
Features: A: QR/payment, menu, promotions, analytics, basic CRM and Xero. B adds takeaway/delivery; C/E offer kiosk; D expands loyalty/inventory.
Sales channels: Dine-in QR, online takeaway/delivery and kiosk vary by package.
Comparison: A comparable digital ordering layer for Rewardly evaluation, but full counter POS scope needs confirmation. Hawker POS’s included cashier function should not be confused with QR-only scope.
Cost check: Do not read the $4,800 software subtotal as $4,800 per month. Obtain quantity and licence period. Additional services/training $800/day; kiosk licence add-on $1,200.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$5,600 / S$6,400 / S$6,600 / S$11,400 / S$13,200.
Features: QR, points/redemption, menu, promotions, analytics and inventory. Higher package titles add kiosk, delivery and accounting.
Sales channels: Vendor family: ViViPOS counter terminals, QR and kiosk; delivery connectors at selected tiers.
Comparison: A lower-entry-price Rewardly challenger on core operations and loyalty. Hardware openness cannot be ranked from terminal branding. Broader inventory/CRM scope than documented Hawker POS.
Cost check: Base body also lists kiosk/delivery despite higher-tier titles and add-ons. Confirm entitlements. Extra services/training $400/day; kiosk licence $3,300 and delivery connector $800.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$3,800 / S$5,300 / S$7,900 / S$8,600 / S$12,000.
Features: Base: choose QR or kiosk, basic customer profiles, inventory alerts and analytics. Higher titles add own delivery, marketplace integration, loyalty and Xero.
Sales channels: QR or kiosk; own delivery/pickup and delivery platforms at higher tiers.
Comparison: A strong Rewardly challenger on AI-assisted management and channels. Low entry price excludes kiosk equipment and does not establish both ordering channels. Hawker POS targets simpler counter operations.
Cost check: Base body also lists higher-tier modules; obtain signed entitlements. Extra ordering module $2,148/year, delivery connector $420/year, PRO customer module $2,388/year.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$3,648 / S$6,636 / S$7,056 / S$9,444 / S$9,792.
Government package · Vendor and AskAtlas
Features: Base digital ordering/payment, scheduled menus, promotions, basic inventory/CRM and analytics. Enterprise adds ingredient/recipe tracking, advanced CRM and delivery/Xero connectors.
Sales channels: POS product family, dine-in, takeaway, preorder and delivery; third-party connectors cost extra in base.
Comparison: A strong Rewardly competitor on hardware flexibility and ingredient inventory at the appropriate tier. BYOD is not unique. Hawker POS does not document equivalent stock or customer modules.
Cost check: Advanced inventory $1,200/year; CRM $2,000/year; food-delivery connector $960/year; Xero $600/year. SMS fees excluded. Onsite support availability is not a free-service guarantee.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$3,650 / S$10,160.
Government package · Compatible POS devices · GrabFood integration
Features: Base QR, delivery connector, menu, promotions, basic members and analytics. Higher packages add loyalty, kiosk, inventory and accounting; implementation/training listed.
Sales channels: QR, kiosk, online/delivery; vendor promotes integrations with existing POS systems.
Comparison: Strong integration-led competition to Rewardly’s ordering channels. Not directly comparable to free Hawker cashier software without including the underlying POS and hardware.
Cost check: Base is potentially an ordering overlay: retain/add the underlying POS cost. Full package lists $8,960 before and $4,860 after grant; reconcile the grant amount rather than assuming 50%.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$4,480 / S$6,140 / S$6,140 / S$7,740 / S$8,960.
Features: QR or kiosk subscription, Cirrus backend/inventory and INCONTACT CRM. Comprehensive adds an ordering licence plus delivery/accounting in its pricing structure.
Sales channels: QR or kiosk; delivery connector and QuickBooks sync require scope confirmation.
Comparison: A credible Rewardly competitor on customer and stock management. Annual commitments, devices and service costs need matching. Broader documented management functions than Hawker POS.
Cost check: Base body lists delivery/accounting also sold as add-ons ($1,080/$540 annually). Additional ordering licence $1,800/year. These three extras exactly bridge $5,416 to $8,836; confirm entitlements.
All listed tiers, in source order: S$5,416 / S$8,836.
Reference configuration: one outlet, one cashier device, one receipt printer, one kitchen printer or equivalent kitchen workflow, the same payment methods, installation, initial training and six months of required support. For a full restaurant comparison, add QR ordering, loyalty, stock and the same delivery/accounting connections. Price kiosk hardware and its licence separately where needed. For Hawker POS, use a basic-stall scenario; mark unmet restaurant requirements rather than silently treating them as supplied.
Six-month adoption cost = required hardware + one-time implementation + minimum non-refundable software commitments needed to operate through month 6 + required support/connectivity + transaction/platform fees + applicable non-recoverable taxes.
This measures the cost committed to adopt and operate for six months, not six-month accounting amortisation. If an annual licence must be bought, retain its full required commitment and show the 12-month benefit separately. Confirm payment timing before presenting a cash-flow chart. If cancellation or pro-rata refunds are contractual, use those terms instead. Do not turn a S$4,800 package subtotal into a monthly charge or automatically halve an annual licence.
The presentation shows published net package cost after the listed estimated grant, with gross cost retained in the ledger. Show actual approved subsidy and payment timing separately; neither eligibility nor reimbursement by month six is assumed. Preserve the quoted tax basis until GST treatment is confirmed. Do not apply an automatic 50% grant to every package or treat after-grant price as day-one cash needed.
Transaction costs: use the same six-month card/PayNow/online sales volumes, transaction counts and delivery mix for every vendor. Include percentage fees, per-transaction charges, gateway subscriptions, settlement/payout fees, marketplace commissions and messaging usage where relevant. Existing equipment can have zero new acquisition cash cost only after compatibility is confirmed; that is not “hardware included.”
Current result: Rewardly and Hawker software subtotals are calculable under the stated plan assumptions. The 17 competitors’ published entry package prices are known. Rewardly has the lower advertised six-month starting software spend versus every listed entry package after its estimated grant. Complete comparable TCO and total savings remain undetermined because scope, devices, service terms, licence periods and transaction charges are unresolved.
Rewardly: position around flexible deployment, a connected loyalty/payment experience and a low disclosed monthly software starting price. Prove the selected plan’s full module and service scope before claiming cost leadership. “Only open API,” “only AI,” or “competitors require proprietary hardware” is not supported by this review.
Hawker POS: position around free core software and a focused stall workflow on compatible hardware. It is a sensible candidate when advanced inventory, loyalty, delivery orchestration and enterprise integrations are unnecessary. A free licence is not a free fully installed, supported POS.
Priority competitors for deeper evaluation: Lunchbox for low entry pricing and packaged AI; AppsPOS for developer evidence, WhatsApp ordering and KDS; IDEKU and NPOS for BYOD; Atlas for AI-assisted management and ordering; Wecome for loyalty and named AI menu tools. This is an analyst shortlist for validation, not a tested quality ranking.
