## Differentiators (verified July 2026)
- 2.39% flat processing on every plan — lower than Square's best rate (2.4% + 15¢, which requires $149/mo/location)
- Native delivery dispatch (drivers, vehicles, map-drawn zones) — Square charges $1.50/order + courier fees
- Included with every plan: task management with read-&-sign, forms & checklists, expense management with live P&L, branded customer support portal, help center builder, swim-lane service queues — no major competitor sells these at any price
- No contracts (Lightspeed: 1–3 years; Clover: 36–48 months; SkyTab: 36 months)
