The profitable winter bar

Get more done with fewer hands
Challenge
During peak periods, finding good staff becomes harder every year: students are taking exams, flexi-job workers are scarce, and permanent staff are already working overtime. The consequences are quickly felt in your business: longer waiting times at tables or the bar, teams under pressure mainly putting out fires, and service that runs less smoothly precisely when you want to excel. And all this while you really only want one thing: to serve customers quickly and well, with a team that can keep up.
Solution
Beyond Ordering helps you optimize your operations with a QR ordering solution. Customers simply order and pay via their smartphone.
Here's how it works:
- Your customer scans the QR code, chooses their favorite drinks (and snacks), and pays online immediately
- The order is automatically split (bar, kitchen, ...) and can be prepared and delivered
Without extra steps. Without extra running around. And without wasted time.
Important: you always retain flexibility. Customers can still order from the waiter and pay cash if you wish.
Result
With QR orders, you immediately make your team more efficient:
- Waiters focus on service, not on taking orders
- Guaranteed faster flow, even during peak times
- Fewer errors thanks to automatic processing
- Less staff needed, without loss of quality
In short, you create calm on the floor and behind the bar.
Turn speed into additional revenue
The Challenge
During peak times, customers often want to order faster or treat themselves to another round, but in practice, they give up due to wait times or crowded floors. Servers can't always get to every table on time, leading to missed ordering opportunities. The result? Fewer spontaneous extras, less upsell, and revenue that stays below its potential — precisely when you could be earning the most.
The Solution
With Beyond Ordering, customers order instantly via QR, precisely when they feel like it. This eliminates barriers like waiting for a server or having to get their attention again. What's more, you can strategically use your menu with promotions and combo deals. This makes it easy to add an extra drink, sharing item, or upgrade with a single click.
The Result
Because customers order faster and more independently, the number of ordering opportunities increases, and the average order value rises. You miss fewer "spontaneous second rounds," upsells happen naturally through promotions, and customers experience it as convenience rather than sales pressure. The effect is clear: better flow and higher revenue, without extra work for your team.
