QR code ordering for restaurants and food halls
Guests scan the QR code on the table or the counter and order with their own phone, with no app to download. With Ferculon, the best restaurant POS system in Mauritius, every QR order reaches the kitchen, the right bill and the right waiter.
How to order using a QR code
Scan the QR code to order in five steps, the same on any iPhone or Android phone.
- 01
Scan the QR code
Point the phone camera at the code on the table or the counter and open the link.
- 02
Open the menu
The menu opens in the browser. No app to download and no account to create.
- 03
Add a name and number
So the restaurant knows who ordered. At a table, a code on WhatsApp confirms the number.
- 04
Send the order
Choose the dishes, add a note for the kitchen and send. It reaches the kitchen in seconds.
- 05
Order more, or ask for the bill
At a table, order another round, call a waiter or ask for the bill from the same page.
Restaurant QR code ordering that works with your team
QR orders run through the same kitchen display, bills and waiter app as every other order.
Every order on the right bill
Each table has its own QR code, and every round a guest sends joins the bill the waiter already has open.
Straight to the kitchen, or a waiter first
Choose whether QR orders go to the kitchen display at once, or wait for a waiter to check them first.
The right waiter is told
Only that table’s waiter hears that it has ordered, called for someone or asked for the bill.
Sold out means sold out
Dishes the kitchen marks sold out are greyed out on the guest’s phone while the page is open.
Last orders and opening hours
QR ordering stops at your last orders time and while you are closed, and your team can still take orders.
Codes you control
Print a QR code for every table from your floor plan, and reissue one so the old code stops working at once.
Food hall QR ordering
At a food hall or food court, guests scan the QR code on your counter or the tables around it, order from your pick-up menu and pay at the counter. Nothing is cooked before it is paid, and the guest gets a WhatsApp message the moment it is ready.
- One QR code for your counter and the tables around it
- Orders reach the kitchen once they are paid
- A ready message on WhatsApp
- Unpaid orders cancel themselves
Questions about QR code ordering
