They scan. They order. You braai. Customers open your menu on their own phone, order platters by the weight and rounds for the table, and the order lands at the grill and on every staff phone by Telegram, with the table number. See how the QR code menu works
On a Saturday the grill cannot hear the table and the table cannot find a waiter. A QR order arrives at the grill with the table number and the note, every time.
When the butcher puts the price up you should not need a new chalkboard or a reprint. Change it on your phone and every table sees the new price at once.
Customers pay from their phone through your own Yoco, iKhokha, SnapScan or Zapper account, or at the counter. Rounds for the table go on one bill.
A card on every table with your own code. No app for the customer, nothing to install for you, and a menu you change from your phone when the meat price moves. Free for the menu; table ordering from R300 a month.

The features that matter most for your business.
Sell a 500g, 1kg or 2kg platter with the sides as options, so the customer picks pap, chakalaka or salad and the kitchen reads it on the ticket.
Every order as a Telegram message to the whole team: free, five minutes to set up, as many staff as you like in the group, with the table, the items and the total. WhatsApp alerts too. Pro plan.
A button on the phone calls a waiter to the table, and the table settles its bill from the phone or at the counter.
Branded table cards, stickers and A-frames as a print-ready PDF from the dashboard. Print them at the corner shop; a code never stops working.
