What the platform does
Three guest surfaces, three staff surfaces, one operator dashboard. Every state change rides a real-time bus so the floor, the kitchen and the manager see the same truth at the same moment.
QR scan, no install. Works on any phone โ Apple, Android, browser of choice.
QR at the table opens the menu instantly. Single-use redirect keeps the URL clean and prevents token replay.
Categorised, dietary-tagged, media-rich. Live sold-out status. Recommendations shown contextually.
Cart with notes. Auto-cancel window before the kitchen starts. Per-seat attribution for split-bill later.
Whole bill, per person or per item. Cash or card noted; tips supported. Each guest pays from their own phone.
Post-paid prompt. โฅ4โ guests get a nudge to Google / external review. Below-4โ keeps the feedback in-house for the operator.
