Best POS System for Pizza Shops in Canada & USA (2025 Guide)

Running a pizzeria is different from running a cafe or a steakhouse. You need specific tools to handle complex toppings, delivery logistics, and high-volume Friday nights.

If you own a pizza shop in Toronto, New York, or anywhere in between, you know the struggle. A customer calls in and wants a "Large Pepperoni, but half cheese only, and extra sauce on the pepperoni side."

Most generic POS systems crumble under these requests. That's why choosing a Pizza-Specific POS is crucial for your success. Here is what you need to look for in 2025.

1. Advanced Modifier Management (Half/Half)

This is the deal-breaker. Your POS must handle:

  • Half-and-Half Pizzas: accurately pricing different toppings on each half.
  • Crust Customization: Thin, thick, gluten-free, stuffed crust.
  • Topping Exclusions: "No onions" or "Light cheese".

AIPOS handles complex modifiers with ease, ensuring the kitchen gets the exact order and the customer gets the right price.

2. Integrated Delivery Management

Pizza and delivery go hand in hand. In 2025, you shouldn't be manually entering orders from Uber Eats or SkipTheDishes into your POS.

Look for a system that:

  • Aggregates Orders: All delivery apps feed into one screen.
  • Manages Drivers: Track your own drivers if you do in-house delivery.
  • Optimizes Routes: AI suggestions for the fastest delivery routes.

3. Inventory Tracking by Ingredient

How much cheese goes on a large vs. a medium? A smart POS tracks inventory down to the gram.

AIPOS Inventory allows you to map ingredients to menu items. When a large pizza is sold, it automatically deducts 300g of dough, 150g of cheese, and 100g of sauce. This helps you spot theft and waste immediately.

4. Kitchen Display System (KDS)

Paper tickets get lost or greasy. A digital KDS keeps your pizza line moving efficiently. It can route appetizers to the fryer station and pizzas to the oven station, ensuring everything comes out at the same time.
