How MenuBase works with your POS
MenuBase is a full ordering and payment POS. Customers order and pay from their phone by QR (TnG, GrabPay, Boost, DuitNow QR, FPX, card), the sale records instantly, the kitchen ticket fires, and the AI adds the perfect upsell to every check. It can be your POS.
Prefer to keep the till you already run? MenuBase runs alongside it as your front-of-house ordering and upsell layer, so your floor team stays free for hospitality. Either way, you are live the same day.
