📝 Punch Orders Table-side

Waiters add items from the menu on the phone while the customer is ordering. No writing, no reading back.

🧑‍🍳 Order Goes Straight to the Kitchen

A KOT prints the moment the order is sent. The waiter can go straight to the next table.

➕ Add Items Anytime

Dessert or another round? Add it to the open table order and it goes on the same bill.

👥 Separate Staff Logins

Give each staff member their own PIN, so you know who took which order.

Show the bill and a UPI QR for the exact amount right at the table, or split it between guests.

What is a waiter ordering (captain) app?

A waiter ordering app — also called a captain app — replaces the waiter’s notepad with a phone. The order is entered once at the table, sent to the kitchen as a KOT, and kept on the table’s running bill. Nothing has to be rewritten at the counter.

Why restaurants switch to table-side ordering

  • Turn tables faster — waiters spend less time walking between tables, the counter and the kitchen.
  • Fewer wrong orders — items are picked from your menu, not written by hand.
  • Nothing goes unbilled — every item ordered is on the bill automatically.
  • Less training — new staff learn the app in a few minutes.

What you need

Any Android 8.0+ phone for each waiter (older phones work fine), and a Bluetooth thermal printer in the kitchen for KOTs. Handheld POS terminals like Sunmi and Pax with built-in printers work too.
