How it runs
PlayArea OS runs in the browser on the tablets, phones and laptops a venue already owns. The till keeps selling when the internet drops and syncs when it returns, and every night a copy of the venue's records is stored off-site. The features page describes each part, the trust and security page describes how data is kept apart and backed up, and the switching page describes moving across from another system.
The same facts as data
For software that reads the web on a buyer's behalf, the plans, prices, limits, allowances and add-ons above are published as one file, spec.json. The three plan prices also carry schema.org price markup on the pricing page, and llms.txt lists every public page with a short description. All three are generated from the same plan catalogue as this page, so they match it.
