Running a pub or bar in Glasgow
Glasgow's live music calendar gives pubs and bars a trading rhythm shaped by performances as well as regular customers. The Barrowland is a ballroom converted into a live music venue, while The OVO Hydro is another major name in the city's music scene. For a bar serving concertgoers, customers may arrive together before a show or return afterwards, creating concentrated demand rather than a steady evening flow.
A pre-show round at the counter calls for a different payment arrangement from drinks served to seated groups. Teya Pro takes contactless, chip and PIN and mobile wallets, with a built-in receipt printer for customers who need a slip. Teya Lite is pocket-sized for moving around the floor. The Teya app and portal let you review sales and transactions when comparing a concert evening with an ordinary Glasgow trading night.
Rounds before the concert
Customers heading to the Barrowland stop for drinks before the performance. At the counter, Teya Pro accepts contactless cards, chip and PIN, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Its built-in printer gives you the option of a paper receipt, while Wi-Fi with 4G fallback provides connectivity options for taking payments during service.
Payments away from the bar
After a show at The OVO Hydro, a seated group orders another round and asks to pay where they are. Teya Lite can travel with the member of staff serving them. Its pocket-sized design suits movement around tables, with Wi-Fi and 4G available and digital receipts instead of paper slips.
Reviewing a music night
A Glasgow bar owner wants to understand how a concert evening differed from a regular night. The Teya app and portal show sales and transactions for review after service. Staff can also be set up, giving the owner a way to arrange access for people who need to use the payment tools.

Questions from Glasgow pubs & bars
Which machine suits table service in a Glasgow bar?
Teya Lite is pocket-sized and designed for moving around, with Wi-Fi and 4G and digital receipts. For a bar serving groups before Glasgow concerts, Teya Pro is another option if you want printed receipts, on-screen tipping or Split Bill at the table.
Is support available when our Glasgow pub trades at night?
Teya provides 24/7 customer support, so support is available outside daytime trading hours. That is relevant for Glasgow pubs serving customers after music performances. The Teya app and portal also let you see sales and transactions when reviewing the evening's payments.
