Menu, orders, tables
Your menu online, orders in the kitchen, tables booked.
A menu with options and allergens, online ordering for pickup or delivery paid by card or on collection, a live kitchen board, and table bookings that count covers rather than tables. On your own site, with no marketplace between you and the guest.
The kitchen board
Orders arrive on a board that tells you how long each has waited.
A paid order lands as received. Accept it, start cooking, mark it ready, hand it over or send it out for delivery; each step is a button, and the guest's order page follows along. Pause ordering with a reason when the kitchen is slammed, and the quoted time stretches with the queue.
Nine order states
From received to completed, with reject and cancel where they belong.
A quoted time that adapts
Prep time plus the queue, batched the way a kitchen actually works.
Sound and a live feed
New orders ping the board; a poll backs up the stream when a tablet sleeps.
Tables
Bookings that count people, not tables.
Tell it how many people you can seat at once and how long a table is held; it takes bookings up to that, in sittings you choose, with a largest party you allow online. Guests confirm by email so an unverified request holds nothing. Approve each one yourself or let them through.
Covers and turn time
Seats at once, minutes per table, sittings every so many minutes.
Email-verified requests
A booking counts only once the guest has clicked the link.
Tonight's book
Covers booked, who is awaiting a yes, and an export for the door.

Frequently asked questions

No. Online ordering runs on your own site and your own Stripe account. You pay your Cliux plan; Stripe charges its card fee.
Yes. Turn on pay-on-collection and the order arrives unpaid with a note to settle at pickup. Card online can stay on beside it.
Your menu is a page on your site, so any QR generator pointed at its address works. Cliux does not generate the QR code itself, and there is no dine-in ordering from the table yet.
No. Orders come in on the Cliux kitchen board, which runs on any tablet or laptop in the kitchen. There is no integration with a point of sale or a delivery marketplace.
Not yet. Table bookings are confirmed by email and, if you choose, by your approval; no card is taken.
