Beneficios Principais
QR ordering eliminates the biggest wait
The single most effective way to reduce wait times is QR code ordering. Guests scan a code at their table and order immediately — no waiting for a waiter to bring the menu, take the order, or process payment. Data from FoxiFood restaurants shows this eliminates 10-15 minutes per table visit. For a busy restaurant doing 100 tables per day, that is 1,000-1,500 minutes of cumulative waiting time eliminated daily.
Faster table turnover means more revenue
Reducing wait times by 10-15 minutes per table directly translates to faster table turnover. A restaurant with 30 seats that turns tables 15 minutes faster can serve 1-2 additional seatings during peak hours. At an average check of 25 EUR, that is 750-1,500 EUR in additional daily revenue during busy periods.
Digital payments speed up checkout
The traditional bill process — guest requests bill, waiter prints it, guest reviews it, provides card, waiter processes payment, returns card — takes 5-10 minutes. With FoxiFood, guests pay directly on their phone when ordering or at the end of their meal. Bill splitting, tipping, and receipt delivery all happen digitally in seconds.
Real-time order management
Digital orders go directly to the kitchen display — no handwriting to decipher, no trips between dining room and kitchen. The kitchen receives orders in real time, can prioritize by table and timing, and updates order status automatically. This reduces preparation delays and ensures food arrives at optimal temperature.
Staff can focus on service, not logistics
When ordering and payment happen digitally, your staff is freed from the most time-consuming tasks. They can focus on what matters — greeting guests, answering questions about the menu, ensuring food quality, and creating a great dining experience. Restaurants report that staff satisfaction improves when the repetitive order-taking pressure is removed.
