A floor plan, open tabs and split bills for table service

For cafés, restaurants, pubs and bars with table service. Arrange your tables like the room and each one shows, live, whether it is free, cooking, waiting to pay, calling for staff or asking for the bill. Orders build up on the table's tab until it pays, and the bill can be split when it does.

01

The floor plan

Drag your tables into the shape of the room. During service each table is coloured by what is happening there: free, cooking, to pay, calling staff or wanting the bill, so a manager can see the whole floor at a glance.

Guests can use the call-staff and request-the-bill buttons on the table's QR menu, and the request appears on the floor plan and the dashboard with the table number. With more than one venue, each location has its own floor plan.

02

Open tabs

An order taken on the waiter app, or a till sale marked pay later, stays on the table's tab. Open tabs lists every table with orders still owing and what each owes.

When the party moves, or two tables join, Move tab takes the orders to the new table. When they are ready to pay, settle the whole table in one tap as cash or card.

In the waiter app, put each line in a course and on a seat. The kitchen gets course 1 straight away; course 2 is held until the waiter, or anyone on Open tabs, sends it.

  • ✓Every table with orders still owing, in one list
  • ✓Move a tab between tables
  • ✓Settle a whole table as cash or card in one tap
  • ✓Courses held and sent when the table is ready
  • ✓After closing time, the Today page reminds you to settle open tabs
03

Split the bill

The split-the-bill helper on Open tabs works out each person's share, and the till can take a bill in several parts until they add up to the total.

Guests can open the table's running bill from the QR code on their table and use its equal-split calculator to see what each of them owes before they come to pay.

04

Plans and honest limits

The floor plan, open tabs and the waiter app are in the POS plan at £39 per venue a month. On Order & Pay they are the "Waiter app, tabs and floor plan" add-on at £8 a month, which needs the till add-on too.

Guests can see and split the table bill on their phone, but cannot yet pay their own share online: payment is still taken at the till.

Questions

Straight answers, before you start.

Visit the help centre →Ask us on WhatsApp
Can I run tabs for tables in a pub or bar?+

Yes. Orders taken on the waiter app or rung up as pay later stay on the table's tab. Open tabs lists everything still owing, and you settle a table as cash or card when it pays.

How do I split a bill?+

Use the split-the-bill helper on Open tabs, or take the payment on the till in several parts until they add up to the total. Guests can also see an equal split on their phone from the table's QR code.

What happens when a party moves tables?+

Use Move tab on Open tabs. The orders move to the new table, which also works when two tables join.

Can guests pay their share from their phone?+

Not yet. Guests can see the running bill and an equal-split calculator from the table's QR code, but each share is still paid at the till.
