This app is designed for the restaurant that is already a client of menulab. It allows the restauranteur to program their own NFC tags. Currently compatible with NFC 213 & 215 tags. We will be bringing full encryption soon with NFC 424. The customer taps their phone to an NFC-enabled point (or for older phones scans the QR code) to bring up your menu instantly. Customers select items and choose additions and variations to make the perfect order. Once the order is placed, you are notified instantly. Customers pay upon ordering or tap again at the end of the meal to bring up the bill. They choose to pay in full, split the bill evenly or pay by item.
