Module 11 · Lesson 4
POS, Café & Online Ordering
"A full register, a kitchen that runs itself, and commission-free online ordering from the business's own website."
Video narration script (ready to record)
This is the point of sale — built for real counters.
Ring up anything: services, retail, food with full modifiers — sizes, add-ons, required choices — discounts, comps, and split payments. Take cards on a real terminal, take cash with a managed drawer, or complete a sale entirely with the customer's rewards.
For a café or kitchen, orders don't get shouted — they appear on a kitchen display the moment they're paid, and tickets print automatically on kitchen printers. When the order's ready, the customer gets a text.
Customers can also skip the line two ways. A self-serve kiosk at the counter — they tap through the menu, pay, and the kitchen gets it like any other order. And online ordering from the business's OWN website: real menu, real modifiers, scheduled pickup times — and no marketplace commission taking thirty percent off the top.
Every sale — counter, kiosk, or online — lands in the same reports, earns the same Boonora rewards, and ties back to the same customer. One register brain, every way to order.

Talking points
- Do the marketplace mathA restaurant doing $3,000/month through a delivery marketplace at ~30% is giving away ~$900 — our online ordering is theirs, on their site.
- Sell the kitchen loopOrder → kitchen screen → printer ticket → "it's ready" text. Owners picture their rush hour immediately.
- Rewards at the registerEvery ring-up enrolls or recognizes a Boonora member — the register is where the network grows.
