# POS Integration Overview
> Select the right integration path for your restaurant
Select your current POS system below to see setup requirements and timeline. If you don't have a POS or yours isn't listed, choose Manual Setup.
## Supported POS systems
Full integration with OAuth and KYC
Full integration with KYC
Full integration with KYC
## No POS or unsupported system
**KYC required**: Yes | **Setup time**: 2-3 days | **Menu sync**: Manual entry | **Best for**: Restaurants without POS
or with unsupported systems
## What is KYC?
KYC (Know Your Customer) is a verification process required for payment processing. It involves:
* Business registration verification
* Owner identity verification
* Bank account verification
* Tax ID confirmation
Quantic merchants skip KYC because payment processing is handled through Quantic's existing merchant accounts.
## Integration benefits
### Why choose POS integration?
Changes made to your menu in your POS system are reflected in Maple automatically, eliminating the need for manual
updates. Price changes sync automatically, and new items appear without delay, ensuring your menu is always up to
date.
Real-time inventory integration ensures that 86'd items are updated automatically, inventory levels remain accurate,
seasonal items are managed properly, and modifier availability is always tracked.
Orders are sent directly to the kitchen without manual entry. This reduces errors and speeds up order processing.
### When manual setup makes sense
Manual setup works well for phone-order-only operations, simple menus, low order volume, or restaurants planning to
add a POS system later.
Manual setup is also a fit if you use a legacy POS system, a custom solution, are waiting for a future integration, or
want to test Maple before fully integrating.
## Authentication methods
POS integrations use one of two authentication methods:
| Method | POS Systems | How it works |
| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **OAuth** | Toast, Square, Clover, SpotOn | You're redirected to the POS login page to authorize Maple. Tokens are managed automatically. |
| **Credentials** | SkyTab, Smile, Quantic, NCR Aloha, NCR Voyix, Tray, Chowbus | You enter API credentials or account details in the Maple dashboard. |
## Pay-in-store support
Not all POS systems support accepting unpaid (pay-in-store) orders:
| Supports pay-in-store | Does not support pay-in-store |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| Toast, Clover, NCR Aloha, NCR Voyix, Quantic, Tray, Chowbus | Square, SkyTab, Smile, SpotOn |
Delivery orders always require upfront payment regardless of POS system.
