Kitchen tickets, real-time
One platform, eight surfaces

Every part of service, on one system.

From the table QR to the kitchen line to the owner's dashboard — each surface deep-links so you can share exactly the part your team cares about.

What it changes on the floor

Faster turns. Fewer errors. More tips.

Faster table turns

Guests order the moment they sit down — no waiting for a server to bring a menu, take an order, or run a card. Tickets hit the kitchen in under a second.

Fewer order errors

Guests enter their own choices, modifiers, and allergy filters. What they tap is what the kitchen sees — no relayed mistakes.

More tips, bigger checks

On-screen prompts and one-tap re-orders lift average tip and basket size, and each guest pays from their own phone.

Hardware, shipped & supported

Modern hardware we ship and support.

Server handhelds, kitchen displays, cashier stations, and printers — modern smart POS hardware we ship and support Canada-wide, with free setup and buy-or-lease options.

How the hardware works
How it works

Three taps from sitting down to paid.

01
Scan the table QR

Your guest points their camera at the code on the table. The full menu opens in their browser — no app, no login, no waiting for a server.

02
Order & split together

Everyone at the table adds to one shared cart, filters by allergy or diet, and splits the bill evenly or by item — each guest pays from their own phone.

03
Tip & pay in seconds

Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a saved card. The kitchen gets the ticket in under a second, and the receipt lands by email or SMS.

FAQ

Questions about the POS, answered.

Do my guests need to download an app?

Never. They scan the QR code on the table and the menu opens right in their phone's browser — order, split, tip, and pay with nothing to install and no account required.

How do guests pay?

Apple Pay, Google Pay, Visa/Mastercard, or a securely saved card. Card data is tokenized and never touches Waitery servers.

Is it really bilingual?

Yes. Guest, kitchen, and receipt languages are configured independently in English or French, per location — built for Canada from day one.

What does it cost?

$14 CAD per location per month for the full platform — and setup is free. Add-on modules are à la carte from $19/mo. Hardware is purchase or a 48-month lease.

Do you provide the hardware?

Yes — handhelds, kitchen displays, cashier tablets, and printers, shipped and supported by Waitery with a 1-year warranty. Buy outright or lease over 48 months.

Is it built for Canada?

Yes — Waitery is bilingual EN/FR with per-province sales-tax handling (GST/HST/PST/QST) and Canadian payment methods. For specific regulatory requirements in your province — such as Quebec's Law 25 or Revenu Québec billing rules — talk to our team about your setup.
