Cafes

Skip-the-queue ordering for cafes

The line is the job. People queued to speak to the barista. A QR on the counter or the window and they are not standing there saying oat and extra shot.

People queued to order

Busy coffee shop. Queue to speak. Takezi is built for that. QR on the counter, the window, or a second order-here spot. They scan, pick the coffee, pay on the phone — Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card through your Stripe or Square — and step aside. No guest app. They are out of the line.

The ticket hits the machine

The barista sees the ticket on the pickup queue. Coffee comes up. They grab it. Staff run the pickup queue on a phone or tablet. Guests never install anything. That is the whole staff motion.

One ready ping

They paid and moved. Stepped aside. Sat down. When the cup is up they get one ping — tracking page first, WhatsApp if they have it, SMS as backup. One message. Extra SMS after the cap is about 5 cents. No order cap.

Not table QR. Not me&u. Not Toast.

This is skip-the-queue takeaway, not dine-in table service. Not a coffee POS. Not loyalty. Not a marketplace. No food commission. Australia only. A$99 (600 SMS / 1,000 WhatsApp) or A$249 (2,200 SMS / 6,000 WhatsApp). Paid from day one, cancel anytime. Optional 7-day taste: card on file, 20 SMS and 50 WhatsApp, then A$99.
