uzapoa

For restaurants, cafés and shops in Tanzania

Uza poa — online, dukani, mezani.

One system for the counter, the table and your online store. Every sale comes off the same stock and lands in the same order list.

Three ways to sell. One stock count.

A sale in the shop, an order online and a table's order all come off the same stock and land in the same order list.

  1. 01

    Online

    Your own store with your logo, colours and photos. Delivery or pickup.

  2. 02

    Dukani

    A POS for the counter: quick sales, receipts, shifts and cash-up.

  3. 03

    Mezani

    Guests order from a QR code or a table tablet. A waiter approves, the kitchen sees it.

POS

A till that keeps up with the queue

Built for a tablet at the counter: big product tiles with photos, the ticket on the side, and one tap to switch between takeaway, dine-in and delivery.

  • Cash, mobile money or pay on collection
  • Printed or WhatsApp receipts
  • Shifts with opening float and cash-up
  • A live board of every order: new, preparing, ready
  • A kitchen screen with the orders to prepare

QR ordering and digital menu

Guests scan, order together, and the kitchen gets it

A printed code on every table opens your menu on the guest's phone. No app to download.

  1. 1

    Scan the table's code

    Each table gets its own card with your logo, in English and Kiswahili.

  2. 2

    Everyone adds to one cart

    Guests type their name, so the whole table sees who added what, as it happens.

  3. 3

    A waiter approves, the kitchen cooks

    Nothing reaches the kitchen until a waiter has checked it. Every round goes on the same table bill.

The same menu on phones and table tablets

  • Photos, options and add-ons on every dish
  • Call-a-waiter button
  • Sold out once, sold out everywhere
  • Replace a table's code at any time and the old card stops working

Online store

Your own online store, in your colours

Customers choose delivery or pickup and their area first, so they only see what you can deliver and what it costs.

  • Your brand colour, logo and product photos
  • Delivery fee, minimum order and cash on delivery per area
  • Pay on delivery, at pickup or by mobile money
  • Three themes, changed in the store designer
  • English and Kiswahili, chosen by the customer

Branches

Every branch, one account

Each branch has its own address, opening hours, pickup and delivery areas. Orders go to the branch that serves the customer.

  • Stock counted per branch
  • Choose which products each branch sells
  • Customers pick up from the branch they choose
  • Receipts with each branch's own header and footer

Products and stock

Stock that matches the shelf

A sale at the counter, an online order and a table order all come off the same count, so an item that sells out is sold out everywhere.

  • Variants like sizes and packs, each with its own price and SKU
  • Choose where each product sells: online, POS, table menu
  • Low-stock alerts on the dashboard and your phone
  • Every adjustment recorded with who made it
  • Suppliers, purchase orders and what you owe
  • Import and export products by CSV

  • Owner

    Everything, including billing, staff and branches.

  • Manager

    Orders, products, stock, reports and the till. Not staff or settings.

  • Cashier

    Sells at the till, runs shifts and approves table orders.

  • Waiter

    Looks after tables and approves what guests order.

  • Kitchen

    Sees the orders to prepare, and nothing else.

    Counts stock, receives deliveries and orders from suppliers.
