Showing Kenya — M-Pesa, card or cash, VAT wording.

For restaurant owners

Run a full house without losing an order, a table or a shilling.

Diners scan the QR on the table, order from their own phone and pay by M-Pesa, card or cash. The kitchen gets it instantly. You get the numbers, already added up.

Nothing to download for your diners. Runs on the phones and tablets you already have.
Paying the bill by M-Pesa
How one table runs

Scan to settled, without you in the middle.

Same five steps for a table of two on a Tuesday and a full room on a Friday.

01
01
Scan

The diner scans the QR on the table. No app to download, no queue at the counter.

02
02
Order

They browse photos and order course by course, in their own time.

Kitchen

The ticket lands on the kitchen screen with the timer already running.

Pay

From their own phone, when they are ready. Nobody waits for a waiter to bring the bill.

Your numbers

Takings, stock and staff figures update themselves. Nothing is re-typed.

What you get

Five things, and none of them need a manual.

Kitchen display

The kitchen stops guessing what is late.

Every ticket carries its own clock and turns amber, then red, as it ages. Courses hold until the floor releases them, so nothing goes out cold or early.

  • A timer per ticket, not a guess per table
  • Courses held and released deliberately
  • Mark a dish 86 and it leaves the menu instantly
Kitchen station
Floor view

Your staff read the whole room from one tablet.

Tables, tabs and course states on a single screen. Whoever picks the tablet up can see which table is waiting and what for.

  • Open tabs with the running bill on each table
  • Release the next course when the table is ready
  • Sections assigned at sign-in, so nobody covers the wrong tables
Floor view
Takings and stock

The day closes itself.

Sales, payment method, stock movement and staff performance land in one place as they happen — not at midnight, and not in a notebook.

  • Takings by hour, by table, by staff member
  • Stock counted down as each dish sells
  • Records in the format your accountant already wants

Payments

Paid before the plate is cleared.

M-Pesa goes straight to your own till or Paybill. Cards on the diner’s phone, card terminals and cash sit on the same tab, and the day close matches every one of them.

  • The bill shows your till, the name M-Pesa will show and the exact amount
  • Staff confirm each code on your own M-Pesa before the kitchen sees the order
  • A code used before is refused
A code waiting at the till
Loyalty and coupons

Regulars earn on what they actually paid.

Points are earned after coupons and only once the bill is paid, and redeemed at checkout from a minimum you set. Every receipt shows the points and the rate, and the diner’s full history sits in their account — no app needed, and the account is optional.

  • You set the earn rate and the point value
  • Every change approved by someone you choose, applied from a date, never backwards
  • Staff cannot spend a diner’s points without the diner’s code

Who it is for

Four people, one system, four different days.

Nobody has to learn the whole thing. Each person sees only the part of it they need.

The diner

Scans, orders, pays, leaves. Never downloads anything and never waits for the bill.

Waitstaff

Reads the room from one tablet: who ordered, what is cooking, which table is waiting.

The kitchen

Two things to learn: read the ticket, tap ready. The timer does the rest.

The owner

Closes up with the day already counted, instead of counting it until midnight.

Built for here

Your M-Pesa money never touches us.

Straight to your till

Diners pay your own M-Pesa till or Paybill. The money never passes through Tumikia, and we add nothing to it.

Every code checked

The diner enters the code from their SMS. Staff confirm it on your own M-Pesa before the kitchen sees the order, and a code used before is refused.

Cards, settled in 2 days

Card payments on the diner’s phone have 3-D Secure on every one, and settle to your M-Pesa or bank within 2 business days.

No app for diners

A camera and a browser. That is the entire requirement on their side.

eTIMS integration coming. VAT is calculated on every bill by your location’s VAT mode. eTIMS integration is coming, and isn’t switched on yet.

We will call you back, set it up with you on your own menu, and leave you running.
