QR Code Ordering Software for Restaurants
QR code ordering turns every table into a self-service point of sale. Diners scan a table-specific code, view your full menu with photos and descriptions, place orders directly, and the kitchen is notified instantly — no staff intervention needed and no app for your customer to install.
Key Benefits
No app to download
Guests use their phone camera to open a mobile-optimised menu in seconds. Zero friction means higher adoption and more orders.
Fewer order errors
Customers pick exact items and modifiers themselves, so misheard orders and missing modifications are dramatically reduced.
Faster table turns
Ordering starts the moment guests sit down. The kitchen receives tickets instantly, cutting wait time between seat and serve.
Per-table codes
Every table gets its own QR so orders arrive with the correct table number automatically — no manual mapping required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do customers need to download an app?
No. QR ordering works through the phone's browser after scanning the code. There is nothing to install.
Can I control which tables offer QR ordering?
Yes. Each table is created in KiwiNova Dine and gets its own code — you decide which tables to enable.
Does it work offline?
QR ordering requires an internet connection on the guest's phone, but your kitchen display works on your normal network.
