History

Barrotti had previously founded INEX, a web-based online storefront creator, which he sold to Infospace (now Blucora) in 1999 for $45 million.[2]

TouchBistro is an app that supports tableside ordering, custom restaurant layouts, custom menus, bill splitting, sales reports, and an unlimited number of order and cash register printers. It is available from the iTunes store. At some point it was the top grossing Food and Beverage iTunes app in over 34 countries.[3] TouchBistro does not require an Internet connection, communicating with printers/cash drawers via local WIFI.[4]

PayPal Partnership

In August, 2013, TouchBistro partnered with PayPal to facilitate restaurant payments via smartphones.[5][6]
