Take an order

  1. Pick the order type: Takeaway or Delivery (and Foodpanda in Pakistan).
  2. Tap a dish. If it has sizes or choices, the till asks for them before it goes in the order.
  3. Check the order on the right. Notes for the kitchen go in Order notes.
  4. Press Pay.

Delivery and phone orders

For Delivery, type the customer's phone first: a regular's name and address come back by themselves. Otherwise fill in the name, house and street and the area, and the area's delivery charge is added.

Managers and Admins also get suggestions as they type, and can search by house number. Cashiers find a customer by the full phone number.
