Mobile Ordering Features
Built for the way customers actually want to order — from their phone, on their terms.
QR Code Table Ordering
Place a QR code on every table. Customers scan with their phone camera, the menu loads instantly in their browser — no app download required. They browse, customise, and pay without waiting for a server. Orders go straight to the kitchen display. Table number is embedded in the QR code so the kitchen knows exactly where the food goes.
Push Notifications
Send targeted push notifications to customers who have downloaded your app. "Lunch deal: any main + drink for £8.99 today only" — sent at 11:30am when people are deciding where to eat. Segment by order history: send a coffee offer to morning regulars, a dinner deal to evening customers. Average open rates of 65% versus 20% for email.
Mobile Payment Processing
Customers pay on their phone with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or card. Payment is processed before they leave the table — no waiting for a card machine. For takeaway orders, payment is taken at the point of order. Split bills between multiple phones at the same table. Tips can be added digitally with preset percentages or a custom amount.
Kitchen Display Integration
Every mobile order appears on the kitchen display system within seconds. The kitchen sees the table number, all items, modifications, and special instructions. Courses can be held and fired when the table is ready. The prep team works through orders in sequence. No printed tickets getting lost, no re-keying from a tablet.
Customer Analytics
Track order patterns, peak times, popular items, and average spend per customer. See which menu items are ordered most through mobile versus at the counter. Identify your top 100 customers by frequency and spend. Understand which push notifications drive the most orders. Data-driven decisions replace guesswork — and the data comes from your own customers, not a marketplace.
Multi-Venue Management
Manage multiple locations from a single dashboard. Each venue has its own menu, pricing, and availability. Push a menu change to all sites simultaneously or customise per location. Compare performance across venues — which site has the highest mobile adoption, the best average order value, the fastest kitchen times. Central control with local flexibility.
Why Mobile Ordering Works
Serve More Customers With Fewer Staff
QR code ordering removes the bottleneck of waiting for a server. Customers order when they are ready, not when a server is available. A 60-seat restaurant that previously needed 4 floor staff can operate with 2 when 70% of orders come through mobile. The staff you keep are focused on hospitality, not order-taking.
Increase Average Order Value
Mobile menus with photos, descriptions, and suggested add-ons consistently increase average order value by 15-25%. Customers browse at their own pace and add extras they would not have ordered if a server was standing over them. "Add a side?" prompts at checkout convert at higher rates than verbal upselling.
Drive Repeat Business
Push notifications put your restaurant in customers' hands at the moment they are deciding where to eat. A well-timed notification to 1,000 previous customers can fill a quiet Tuesday evening. No advertising spend, no marketplace commission — just a direct message to people who already know and like your food.
Eliminate Order Errors
The customer types their own order including modifications and allergy requirements. The order goes directly to the kitchen display exactly as submitted. No interpretation, no abbreviation, no forgotten items. The kitchen makes what the customer ordered, every time. Fewer complaints, fewer remakes, less food waste.
Mobile Ordering Is Not the Future — It Is Now
72% of UK consumers have ordered food from their phone in the last month. The behaviour shift that started during the pandemic is now permanent. Customers expect to scan a QR code and order from the table. They expect to order ahead and collect. They expect to pay without waiting.
For restaurants and cafes, mobile ordering is not an optional add-on — it is core infrastructure. It reduces staffing pressure, increases order accuracy, and drives higher average spend. Venues that adopted mobile ordering report 15-25% higher average order values because customers browse, add extras, and spend more when there is no time pressure.
The Posso mobile ordering platform works without an app download for the QR code channel and with a branded app for push notifications and loyalty. Both channels feed into the same POS and kitchen display. One system, two ordering channels, seamless operation.
