Sound familiar?
Paper lunch lists were never the vibe.
Chasing cash, decoding handwriting, parents on the phone to the office. Your canteen team has better things to do.
Lunch money in an envelope with a note you can't read
Customers order off your menu ahead of time. Itemised. Clear. No more "but I sent R20 on Monday".
The office phone: "Did my child get lunch?"
Every order shows who it's for — customer, child, or staff. You can actually answer that one.
A spreadsheet and reply-all email chaos
Invite people by email. Pre-orders land in one dashboard. Sorted.
How it works
Three steps. Then you're live.
- 1
Load your menu
Items, prices, which days they're available. Cash on collection, EFT, or tab — your call.
- 2
Send the invites
Customers accept by email, then they can order. No strangers stumbling in from the internet.
- 3
Run it from your phone
See who ordered what. Accept, prep, mark ready. Before the bell rings.
Features
The useful stuff
No commission. No public listing. Your menu, your people, your rules.
Your canteen, online
Invited customers open your page and order in the browser. No app. No marketplace. No drama.
One dashboard for everything
Pre-orders arrive neat and complete. You're not playing detective with scribbled lists.
Tabs for the regulars
Trusted customers can run a tab. You decide who, and when they settle up.
Cash, EFT, or tab
Your payment details at checkout. Your reference. Your rules.
A contact button, if you want it
Customers can message you after ordering. The order itself still goes through your canteen page.
Order tracking
Customers get a link to see progress. Fewer "is it ready yet?" messages. For everyone.
For the canteen team
Your menu. Your school. Your orders.
Load the menu, invite your customers, and get pre-orders with names and grades when someone's ordering for their kid. Clean. Clear. Before the rush.
For customers
Got the email from school?
Accept the invite, set up your account, order lunch in your browser. No app download. No fuss.
