Showing Kenya — M-Pesa, card or cash, VAT wording.

How it works

Four screens. That is the whole system.

One order passes through all four of them. Here is what each person is looking at while it does.

01
What the diner sees

Their own phone, and no app.

  • Scan the QR on the table and the menu opens in the browser.
  • Photos and short clips, so they order what they can actually see.
  • Order by course and keep adding to the tab through the meal.
  • Pay the restaurant’s own M-Pesa till and enter the code, or pay by card or cash.
  • Earn points on what they paid and see every point on the receipt — the account is optional.

02
What the kitchen sees

Tickets with the clock already running.

  • Each ticket appears the moment the diner sends it.
  • Timers turn amber, then red — the pass sees late before the table does.
  • Held courses wait until the floor releases them.
  • Mark ready and the item moves to the pass board.

03
What the floor sees

The room on one tablet.

  • Every table with its tab and its course state.
  • A waiting M-Pesa code highlighted, blinking and chiming until someone confirms it.
  • Take a payment, split a bill, close a tab.
  • Sections assigned at sign-in, so nobody covers the wrong tables.

04
What you see

The numbers, without asking anyone.

  • Takings by hour, by table and by staff member.
  • Stock deducted by recipe on every sale, at weighted-average cost, with waste recorded.
  • Menu, prices and availability changed once and live everywhere.
  • A daily digest with walkouts and waste already flagged.

Built for here

Your M-Pesa money never touches us.

Straight to your till

Diners pay your own M-Pesa till or Paybill. The money never passes through Tumikia, and we add nothing to it.

Every code checked

The diner enters the code from their SMS. Staff confirm it on your own M-Pesa before the kitchen sees the order, and a code used before is refused.

Cards, settled in 2 days

Card payments on the diner’s phone have 3-D Secure on every one, and settle to your M-Pesa or bank within 2 business days.

No app for diners

A camera and a browser. That is the entire requirement on their side.

eTIMS integration coming. VAT is calculated on every bill by your location’s VAT mode. eTIMS integration is coming, and isn’t switched on yet.

Put it on one table and watch it.

We will call you back, set up your menu with you and leave you running.
