Square is making another bid for the restaurant and bar scene with its latest product. Today, the mobile register launched Open Tickets, which allows customers to keep an open tab. The product is said to be rolling out this week. “‘Keep my tab open.’ Music to a bartender’s ears. More often than not, it means more sales — and bigger tips. But managing tabs can be a pain,” the company wrote in a blog post. The new feature is Square’s latest love note to the food and beverage industry. Open Tickets is a small product update, but it’s a noteworthy play for a market it covets.
