Every order reaches your kitchen already paid.

With YallaTapTab, guests at your counter or food court scan a QR code, order from their phone and pay before the order reaches your screen. No cashier queue, no app to download and no hardware to buy.

Arabic and English · Payments through Paymob · No new hardware

The kitchen keeps up. The counter doesn't.

The queue walks away

At rush hour, people at the back of the line count heads, give up and go to the next stall.

Your cashier is the bottleneck

One person takes orders, handles payments and answers menu questions, all at once.

Takeaway gets chaotic

Orders pile up on the pass, staff call out names, and guests ask whether that one is theirs.

From scan to pickup in four steps

  1. Scan

    The guest scans the QR code on the table or counter, or opens your takeaway link from Instagram.

  2. Order

    They browse your menu in Arabic or English, with photos and options.

  3. Pay

    They pay by card, wallet or Apple Pay, depending on the country, so orders from guests' phones reach your screen already paid.

  4. Pick up

    Takeaway guests get a pickup number, and their phone chimes when your team marks the order ready.

Built for the rush

  • Pay first, cook second

    In Pay first mode, nothing guests order from their phones reaches the kitchen until it's paid, so there are no walk-outs and no bills to chase.

  • A takeaway link for Instagram

    Guests order and pay before they arrive, and collect with a pickup number that starts again each day.

  • Second rounds without the queue

    A table can order dessert or another coffee from the same phone, and each round is paid on its own.

  • A live order queue

    Orders from guests' phones appear on any screen once paid, with a sound alert, and your team moves each one from received to preparing to ready.

  • Loyalty without cards

    Guests earn points or stamps on their phone number, and spend a reward on a later bill.

  • Feedback while they're still there

    Every guest is invited to rate the visit. A low rating stays private, so your manager can fix the problem before the guest leaves.

Walk-ins and phone orders too

Not every customer orders from their phone. In Standalone mode, your team enters counter and phone orders on the waiter screen, and they join the same pickup queue.

  • They share the day's pickup numbers with orders from guests' phones
  • Paid at the till straight away, in cash or on your card machine, or when the customer collects
  • The customer gets a printed slip with their pickup number
  • Orders left ready and unpaid for too long are flagged, so no-shows don't slip by
  • They need Standalone mode, so they aren't available alongside a connected POS

Live without an IT project

You don't need new hardware or a POS integration, and nothing has to be installed on guests' phones.

  1. We load your menu

    Your items, photos and options, in Arabic and English.

  2. You print your QR codes

    Print them from the dashboard for your tables and counter, and add the takeaway link to Instagram.

  3. Any screen becomes your order queue

    A tablet or computer with a browser at the pass. That's all your team needs.

Questions from counter and food court operators

Can guests order takeaway?
Yes. YallaTapTab gives your restaurant a takeaway link and a QR code for the counter, with no table needed. Guests ordering from their phone add their name and pay first. Each order gets a pickup number that starts again every day, and when your team marks it ready, the order page on the guest's phone chimes, vibrates and shows it's ready.
Can a Pay first table order again?
Yes. In Pay first mode the table stays open after paying, so guests can order another round and pay for it the same way. They follow each order's kitchen status on their phone until your team closes the table or it's left idle.
What if the kitchen can't take an order after it's paid?
Your team is alerted straight away and can send the order again or cancel it. If no one acts in time, YallaTapTab cancels the order and refunds the guest automatically, so you never keep money for food the kitchen didn't get.
Do guests need to download an app?
No. Guests scan the table's QR code with their phone camera and YallaTapTab opens in the browser. There's no app to download and no account to create.
Which payment methods are available?
YallaTapTab payments run through Paymob, and the methods depend on the country. In Egypt: cards, mobile wallets, valU and Sympl. In Saudi Arabia: cards, Apple Pay and STC Pay. In the UAE: cards and Apple Pay.
Do guest orders go to the kitchen?
Yes. With a connected POS, orders placed through YallaTapTab go into it like any other order, with options and notes. In Standalone mode, they appear on the orders page of the YallaTapTab dashboard, where your team follows them and marks them ready.
Do I need new hardware?
No. YallaTapTab only needs printed QR codes on your tables, and the dashboard runs in any browser. An 80mm receipt printer is optional, for kitchen tickets and, in Standalone mode, customer slips.
Can my menu be in both languages?
Yes. Each menu item in YallaTapTab can have an Arabic and an English name and description, and guests see the one that matches their language.

See it running with your own menu

We'll set up a demo table with your menu and walk your team through a full meal, from the QR code to a paid bill.
