QR Code Ordering
Do guests need to install an app to order?
No. Guests scan the QR code at their table and order right away in their phone's browser.
How do guests pay?
Guests see their table total on the table's orders page and pay at the restaurant's counter.
Can guests see where their order is?
Yes. The table's orders page shows each order's status, such as waiting for confirmation or served.
Can guests order more from the same table?
Yes. Guests can order more at any time, and every order adds to the same table total.
Can dishes have options such as size or toppings?
Yes. You can set required choices and optional add-ons, each with its own extra charge.
Which languages does the menu support?
Up to 6: Thai, English, Chinese, Japanese, Russian and Arabic. The restaurant turns on the languages it needs, and guests pick theirs from the language button.
How does the kitchen get orders?
Orders appear on the kitchen screen for their food category. Any tablet can be a kitchen screen, and one kitchen can have several.
Does staff have to confirm every order?
No. You can turn on automatic confirmation so guests don't wait for staff, and you can pause ordering at any time.
Does it work for several branches?
Yes. Manage every branch from one account; each has its own menu, tables, staff and reports, and you can compare sales across branches.
Can it issue tax invoices?
Yes, for VAT-registered businesses. Set your business details and document numbering in the branch settings.
Insurance Agent Planner
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Use it in your phone's browser, and on a computer with the same account.
How do premium reminders work?
Due dates come from each policy's start date and payment cycle. Policies coming due appear on the home screen and are flagged in the policy list.
Can I keep track of prospects?
Yes. Use the full or quick prospect form to save nickname, phone, LINE, lead source and notes for your pitch.
Which policy types can I record?
Life, health, accident, critical illness, income protection, investment-linked and others, plus riders.

Online Queue & Booking
Do guests need an app or an account?
No. Guests scan the QR code or tap the link, enter a phone number and get in line in their phone's browser.
What kinds of business is it for?
Any business where people wait, such as restaurants, barbers and salons, clinics, spas and classes. The difference is in the settings, not a different system.
What if a guest isn't there when called?
Guests who haven't checked in are skipped and the next one is called. After the number of skips you set, the booking is marked as a no-show.
What do I need for the calling screen?
Any smart TV with a browser, a tablet or a computer with a screen. Open the display page and enter the 6-digit code it shows in your shop settings.
Does it take payments?
No. Service prices are shown to guests for information only; you take payment the way you do today.
