Frequently asked questions
What does WISK cost?
Published pricing is per location. Single Venue beverage or food is $249/month and the F&B bundle is $399/month. Multi-Outlet properties run $499–$1,250/month depending on band (2–10 outlets), and Enterprise (11+ outlets) is custom. A one-time setup fee applies to every plan: $750 for Single Venue beverage or food, $1,250 for the Single Venue F&B bundle, $1,500–$4,500 across Multi-Outlet bands, and from $7,500–$9,500 for Enterprise.
How long does implementation take?
WISK says most customers go live in about two weeks, starting with beverage because it has fewer SKUs, faster recipe entry and cleaner POS data. The setup fee covers onboarding, POS integration, product and ingredient catalogue setup and a first-inventory walkthrough. On-site implementation is available for hotels and complex multi-outlet properties.
Does WISK connect to our POS system?
Yes. WISK lists 60+ integrated POS partners, including Toast, Square, Lightspeed, TouchBistro, Revel, Micros Simphony, Clover and Brink, and there is no additional cost for POS integration. You select your provider during account setup; if your POS is not listed, WISK may offer alternate integration methods.
Is there a free trial?
No. WISK does not offer a free trial. It backs the product with a 60-day money-back guarantee covering two full billing cycles on your own venue data. Demos are free and typically run about 30 minutes on your venue's numbers, with no commitment.
What support is included?
Every plan includes email support and access to FAQs and troubleshooting resources. Multi-Outlet plans add priority support with a 1-day SLA and quarterly business reviews; Enterprise adds a dedicated customer success manager and 24/7 support. Support is also reachable by phone and live chat.
Can we cancel or pause our subscription?
Cancellation is not instant self-serve: an account admin submits a request from the Subscription page and the billing team confirms it once processed. A temporary pause can be arranged through support so your setup stays intact. Your rate is locked for the signed term and plan or pricing changes are never applied automatically.
