Servire: The POS system for your hospitality business
Get started

Self-Ordering for hospitality: guests order and pay themselves.

With Servire Self-Ordering your guests place their own orders: at the table by QR code, for pickup through your order page, or at the kiosk terminal on site. Payment runs online through your own Stripe or SumUp account, or at the terminal's card reader. Every order lands on the kitchen display, is TSE-signed under Section 146a AO and flows into the same Z report as everything else. Self-Ordering is part of the Servire Max plan at 99 € per month, which is announced and not yet available.

Self-Ordering is in development and part of the Max plan at 99 € per month. Leave your details and we will let you know as soon as it is available. No subscription, no commitment.

01 · QR ordering at the table

Guests order right at the table

The guest scans the code on the table, sees your current menu and places a binding order. It is assigned to the right table and reaches the kitchen at once.

  • One code per table

    Every table gets its own code, so the order lands on the right table automatically

  • Your current menu

    Photos, variants, extras, allergens and deposits come live from the till, and sold-out items disappear on their own

  • Paid up front

    At the table it is always paid in advance, online through your own Stripe or SumUp account

  • Tips if you want them

    You set the steps, the guest picks one while paying. Tips stay cleanly separate from revenue

  • Live status

    After ordering the guest sees in five steps where their food currently stands

02 · Pickup & pre-ordering

Order ahead and collect, without queueing

Guests open your order page, pick a collection time and pay online or on collection. The kitchen starts at the right moment.

  • Pay online or on collection

    You decide whether guests pay in advance or only at the counter

  • Collection times at your pace

    Lead time, time slots and a cut-off before closing are yours to set

  • Pickup number and code

    Every order gets a sequential number and a six-character code for the handover

  • An email when it is ready

    The guest gets a confirmation and a message as soon as the order is ready for collection

  • Accept manually or automatically

    If you prefer, your team confirms every order manually, with a time estimate or a reason for declining

  • Not collected, handled for you

    Orders you never accept are declined and refunded automatically, orders never collected are cancelled automatically

03 · Kiosk terminal

Self-service at the terminal on site

A touchscreen in the entrance where guests tap their own order and pay at the card reader. The software behind it is the Servire Hub, so you need no separate till device.

  • Runs on the Hub

    In the browser or as an app for Windows, macOS and Linux, on the touchscreen of your choice

  • Payment at the card reader

    Guests pay at the Stripe Terminal card reader, for example the BBPOS WisePOS E

  • Pickup number and ticket

    After payment the terminal shows the pickup number, and the ticket runs through your existing printer

  • Loyalty card at the terminal

    Guests scan their loyalty card with a handheld scanner or the camera and collect points as they go

  • 12 languages

    Guests pick their language right on the start screen

  • A start screen you shape

    Your own image, your own text, and you choose whether items show a picture, a name, or both

Guest pays contactless with a smartphone at the card reader

04 · Payment

Your account, your payment methods

The money goes straight into your own Stripe or SumUp account. Which methods you offer is yours to decide, per venue.

  • Stripe or SumUp

    Both providers are supported equally, and you link the account you already have

  • Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay

    Plus Klarna and SEPA direct debit if you want them

  • Separate prices for online

    A price category lets you charge different prices online than in the venue

  • Deposits shown properly

    Deposits run as their own line at zero percent and stay separate in reports and exports

  • Refunds from the Web desk

    You refund in full or in part with a reason, and bank chargebacks are also recorded

05 · Setup & management

Everything in the Web desk, no technician

Print QR codes, set times, pause orders, look at the numbers. All in the browser, without anyone having to come by.

  • QR codes as a PDF

    For every table at once, sorted by area and ready to print

  • Reissue the codes

    One click invalidates every old code, in case a table stand goes missing

  • Pause orders

    When it gets too busy you switch intake off for a while without shutting everything down

  • Switch channels separately

    Table ordering and pickup can be turned on and off independently

  • On your own website

    The order flow and the menu can be embedded, and you decide which pages are allowed to do so

  • Reports & order list

    Key figures for Self-Ordering and a filterable list of every order

I spent 5 minutes showing my temp how to open a table. Half an hour later she was serving on her own, no manual, no training session.
