Square for Restaurants Alternative for APAC Businesses
Looking for a Square for Restaurants alternative? Square is popular in the US, but APAC restaurants face challenges: limited delivery platform integrations, poor multi-currency support, and lack of local market expertise.
Klikit offers a better alternative — built specifically for Asian restaurants with native integration to Grab, Gojek, Uber Eats, Foodpanda, and TikTok Shop.

Why APAC Restaurants Choose Klikit Over Square
1. Native Delivery Platform Integration
Square only integrates with DoorDash and Caviar in the US. Klikit connects directly to Grab, Gojek, Uber Eats, Foodpanda, Wolt, and Demaekan — the platforms your customers actually use.
2. Built-in Order Aggregation
Managing multiple delivery apps means fragmented orders and operational chaos. Klikit's order aggregation pulls all your orders into a single kitchen display — no more tab-switching, no more missed orders.
3. Far Lower Cost
Square charges $60/month plus $50/month per additional location. Klikit starts at $25/month with multi-location included — 60% cheaper than Square.
4. APAC-First Support
Square's support team is US-based with limited understanding of Asian restaurant operations. Klikit has local teams in Manila, Jakarta, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, and Tokyo who understand your market.
5. Expand Across APAC
If you're expanding across the region, Klikit works seamlessly in the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Thailand, Taiwan, and Latin America — with the same system and dashboard.
