Self-Ordering Kiosk
Guests order and pay at a touchscreen.
A touchscreen where guests choose dine-in or takeaway, browse your menu, customise dishes and pick a combo, then pay by UPI or at the counter. The order goes to the kitchen and the guest gets a token number.

What it does
Let the queue order itself
At lunchtime in a busy café or food court, the queue is made of people who already know what they want. They wait to say it to the one person at the counter, who is also taking payments, answering questions and calling out ready orders.
The Jamanvar kiosk gives those guests their own screen. They pick a language, choose dine-in or takeaway, browse the menu by category or search it, add options to a dish, and see the combo deals you've set up. They pay by scanning a UPI QR on the screen, or choose to pay at the counter.
Every order gets a token number and goes to the kitchen, and the receipt can be printed or sent to the guest by email or WhatsApp. If the internet drops, the kiosk keeps taking orders, switches payment to the counter, and syncs once the connection is back.
A good fit for cafés, quick-service counters and food courts, where most guests already know what they want.

Where it fits
Restaurants that get the most out of it
- 01
Cafés and quick-service counters
When most guests already know their order, a kiosk takes the waiting out of the queue and frees the counter for payments and pickups.
- 02
Food courts and takeaway counters
Takeaway-only kiosks skip the table step entirely: choose, pay and collect with a token.
- 03
Restaurants with patchy internet
The kiosk keeps taking orders offline, with payment at the counter, and syncs when the connection returns.
Where it fits in the flow
Where the kiosk sits in the flow
- Taking the order
- Guests choose dine-in or takeaway, build their order with options and combos, and pay by UPI or choose to pay at the counter.
- Kitchen display and KOT routing
- The order goes to the kitchen, and the guest collects it with the token number shown on screen and on the receipt.
