YATO: the all-in-one platform for hospitality

Simplifying and enhancing every stage of the guest journey in the hospitality sector. This is the goal of YATO, the company within the Mashfrog Group ecosystem that also lends its name to the newly launched platform designed to meet the needs of both customers and hotel/restaurant managers in a win-win approach.

YATO is a complete and integrated suite, designed for the hotel and restaurant industry, seamlessly interfacing with Oracle Opera and Simphony systems, positioning itself as a strategic ally to tackle today's challenges and prepare for those of the future.

An innovation that creates tangible value

YATO addresses a structural issue in the industry: the fragmentation of operational processes, often slowed down by manual tasks, regulatory constraints, and outdated technologies. The platform introduces a “smart” level of automation that enables smooth and integrated management of complex operations such as check-ins, payments, and reporting—even via pay by link. The result is an immediate boost in efficiency, accuracy, and the quality of the guest experience.

An all-in-one solution

The growing complexity of managing check-in/out, payments, document collection, and compliance with PSD2 regulations demands smart solutions. YATO addresses this need by offering automation that reduces operational stress, minimizes errors, and ensures compliance—making life easier for both staff and guests.

One platform, four cores

YATO is made up of four main modules:

• Web Platform Integration: automates the sending of payment links and guest pre-registration, reducing manual tasks and margin for error.
• Hospitality Mobile App: allows staff to manage key activities from anywhere, from document scanning to key generation, ensuring speed and accuracy.
• Restaurants App: digitizes the dining experience, enabling orders and payments directly at the table—including crypto—for faster, more efficient service.
• PayOnCrypto: taps into new customer segments by enabling cryptocurrency payments with automatic conversion to fiat currency, with no impact on accounting or cash flow.

A flexible, mobile, and future-ready technology

YATO is natively mobile and cloud-ready. It fully supports migration from physical infrastructure to Oracle cloud services, ensuring continuity and zero operational downtime. Its modular approach also enables continuous evolution of the platform, customizable to client needs, with a focus on payments, compliance, F&B management, and more.

Tangible benefits for guests and operators

Adopting YATO means saving time, boosting productivity, and increasing revenue. The numbers speak for themselves: 42% fewer working hours, 50% less table wait time, 20% more tips, and a 40% increase in crypto payment conversions. A digital transformation that enhances both staff performance and the customer experience.

Maximum security and regulatory compliance

Finally, the platform includes an automatic compliance module for transmitting data to authorities, ensuring real-time alignment with Police and ISTAT regulations. The protection of value in crypto payments and the blockchain-based infrastructure provide an additional level of reliability and transparency for all transactions.
