Features
Everything your food business needs, in one place
One system replaces the cash drawer notes, paper slips, stock notebook and month-end spreadsheets. Built for owner-run kota shops, takeaways, restaurants and cafés.
A fast, simple till
Take an order in a few taps on a phone, tablet or laptop you already own.
- Pick sizes, add extras and notes (“no onion”, “name: Sipho”)
- Take cash or card, now or later
- Give discounts with a reason, approved by a manager
- Find any order from any day, and print or resend its receipt

Tabs and tables
Run a table or a bar tab: keep adding rounds, and pay once at the end.
- Open a tab for “Table 4” or “John”, and add each round as they order
- Every round reaches the kitchen on its own ticket, with the table name on it
- Show the bill at any time, and print it or send it on WhatsApp
- Take payment in any mix of cash and card, and the tab closes itself
- A warning at closing time if any tabs are still open
A kitchen screen, not paper slips
Orders reach the kitchen the moment they are placed, and nothing gets lost.
- Every order appears with its extras and notes
- One tap moves it from New to Preparing to Ready to Done
- Cancelled orders are struck off so nobody cooks them
- Works on any phone or tablet in the kitchen

Print it or WhatsApp it
Give every customer a proper receipt, in the way they prefer.
- Print a neat till-roll receipt from the till or the orders page
- Or type the customer’s number and send the receipt on WhatsApp in one tap
- Your name, address, phone, VAT number and a thank-you message on every receipt
- Receipts for refunds and discounts show them clearly
Cash-up that catches mistakes
Know the same day if a till is short, not at month end.
- Open each till with a float and close it with a blind count
- ClearServe compares your count with what it should hold and flags the difference
- Record cash taken out or put in, with a reason
- Cash refunds come out of the open till, so the count stays right
Stock that follows every sale
Know what you have, what you used and what to order, without a stock notebook.
- Add ingredients fast: start from a list for your kind of business, or let ClearServe suggest them from your menu
- Receive deliveries, count the shelves and log waste, each with a reason
- Every sale takes the right ingredients off stock
- Get warned before you run out, and stop selling what you cannot make
See what really makes money
Find out what each dish costs you and what you keep.
- Recipes work out the cost of every item from what you paid for the ingredients
- See your best sellers, your busiest hours and which items earn too little
- Margins stay true: past orders keep the cost they had at the time
- A summary of how the business did lands in your inbox each morning

Know who did what
Every person has their own login, so there is no more guessing where the money went.
- A staff report shows each person’s sales, discounts, cancellations, refunds, money taken and till counts
- Discounts and refunds need a manager to approve them, and it is all recorded
- An activity log shows who signed in and what they did, and when
- Roles for owners, managers, cashiers, kitchen and stock staff, each seeing only what they need
Keeps selling when the internet doesn’t
Load-shedding and weak signal should not stop a sale.
- Orders and payments are saved on the device and sent by themselves when the signal returns
- Nothing is lost and nothing is counted twice
- The kitchen screen keeps showing orders saved on the device
- Install it on the home screen and it opens like an app
Reports you will actually read
Start with a question and find the answer in a tap.
- Daily sales: what you took, how customers paid, what sold, and when you were busy
- An owner dashboard with alerts for low stock, low margins and tills that did not balance (Standard)
- Download Excel or CSV files to send to your accountant (Standard)
- Choose today, the last 7 or 30 days, this month or your own dates
Safe, separate and backed up
Your business data is yours, and it stays that way.
- Every business is kept completely separate from every other, inside the database itself
- Optional two-step sign-in, and accounts lock after repeated wrong passwords
- Encrypted backups every night, copied off the server and checked
- Every update is tested before it goes live
