How to Use Backup Settings in the Table Tap Go Server

The Backup Settings section of the Table Tap Go (TTG) Server allows you to create a backups of your system’s configuration and data.
Regular backups help protect your system against data loss and ensure fast recovery in case of hardware failure, corruption, or accidental changes.

Step 1: Access the TTG Server Management Page

  1. On the TTG Server desktop, open the Table Tap Go Server Management Page, or visit:

     
    http://localhost:8585

  2. Log in with your Admin credentials or Admin Card.

Only Admin users have access to backup tools.

Step 2: Open Backup Settings

  1. From the main menu, click Server Configuration.

  2. In the left-side tab list, select Backup Settings.

  3. You will now see options for creating, saving, and restoring backups.

Step 3: Options in the Backup Settings

  1. Local Backup Directory Path - This is were the backups are stored. By default they are in the C:/Program Files(x86)/Table Tap Go Server/Backups.
    1. You can change to another drive or location just put the path here such as D:/Backups

  2. Number of Backups to Keep - This assigns how many backup you want to keep. If you want to save space lower the number of backups.
  3. Backup Interval (Minutes) - How often the system will automatically make backups.

 

What’s Included in a TTG Backup

A TTG Backup typically includes:

  • Product Database

  • Card Data (customer, staff, admin)

  • Online/Prepaid card balances (if applicable)

  • Keg Levels & Keg Management settings

  • System Configuration (cards, taps, notifications, tap times, etc.)

  • Backgrounds, Happy Hour images, and slideshow configuration

  • Client/Device mappings

  • Pour and system logs (based on version)

Backups store all essential settings needed to restore your TTG environment.

Step 3: Create a Manual Backup

  1. On the left side menu select Maintenance Operations.

  2. Select Create Database Backup.

  3. This will create a new backup in the destination set in the above setting Local Backup Directory Path

  4. You can zip these folders and move to another drive or location on the computer 

Always store backups in multiple secure locations to prevent accidental loss.

Step 4: Restore from a Backup (If Needed).

  1. Open the windows Services window and find the Table Tap Go Server service



  2. Stop the service.

  3. Navigate back to where the backups are stored such as C:\Program Files (x86)\Table Tap Go Server\backups

Restoring a backup will overwrite your current system configuration.

Step 5: Recommended Backup Schedule

To keep your TTG Server protected, we recommend:

  • Weekly backups for standard operations

  • Daily backups for high-traffic venues

  • Before any system updates

  • Before adding new products or tap lines

The system does automatic backups so additional backups are only needed if you want them or to move to another location.

Step 6: Verify Your Backup

After creating a backup

  1. Perform a test of the system such as making a card and pouring.
