Case study

Inflatable World — cutting weekly café management from 6 hours to 30 minutes

How an inflatable play venue in Cookstown, Northern Ireland, brought its Square café data together with SynqOS Café Manager — and found around £1,000 a month in extra sales.

The problem

Inflatable World runs a large café and kitchen alongside four party rooms that can run at the same time as public sessions, so demand swings throughout the day. Keeping enough stock without over-ordering, and manually reviewing sales, stock, product performance, staffing and reports, took at least 6 hours every week.

The fix

Café Manager works alongside the venue's existing Square system and brings the café's information into one place through its Dashboard, Stock Management, Menu Management, Offers & Bundles and Performance Reports. Stock alerts and reorder suggestions keep levels right, and Offers & Bundles spotted that sweet bakery items weren't selling alongside hot chocolate — an opportunity for new combinations. Price changes stay controlled in Square.
