Pay-first ordering

Guests pay before the food is cooked. Their order is held — the kitchen does not see it — until the counter takes the money.

The numbers on the picture match the steps.
  1. 1

    A pay-first table turns red with "unpaid KOT" when it has an order waiting for money.

  2. 2

    Tap Collect on the card. The amount is exactly what the invoice will say, GST and round-off included.

  3. 3

    Pick the method and take the money. The invoice is raised, the KOT prints and the cook starts — in one tap.

Example

A highway dhaba runs pay-first. T3 orders ₹560 at the counter tablet; the cashier taps Collect, takes cash, and the tandoor gets the KOT seconds later.

Good to know

  • Switch it on in Restaurant settings. One regular can still be seated as pay-after.
  • It removes walk-outs completely — nothing is cooked before it is paid.
