Challenges restaurants, cafés & cloud kitchens face

Real friction we hear from owners and professionals — PocketGST is built to remove the busywork.

  • 01

    Slow billing during peak hours

    Lunch and dinner rushes cannot wait for complicated POS flows. Every extra minute loses tables and walk-ins.

  • 02

    GST rate confusion

    Restaurant service, takeaway, and packaged items may sit in different slabs — easy to mis-apply tax under pressure.

  • 03

    Double work with paper KOTs

    Kitchen tickets on paper, then re-entering the same order into billing — mistakes and delays add up.

  • 04

    Mixed sales channels

    Dine-in, takeaway, and aggregator orders are hard to separate when you only have one cash tally at day-end.

  • 05

    Heavy POS subscription costs

    Full restaurant POS stacks charge monthly fees and hardware you may not need for straightforward GST billing.

FAQ

Industry questions

Offline use, pricing, templates, and limits (e.g. e-way bills on the GST portal).

What GST rate applies to restaurant food?+

Rates depend on service type and current law (often 5% for restaurant service on food — confirm with your CA). Set the rate per line item in PocketGST.

Can I separate Swiggy/Zomato from dine-in sales?+

Use multi-business profiles (Pro): one profile per channel. Reports then show sales separately for each.

Does PocketGST integrate with Zomato or Swiggy?+

No. PocketGST is a billing app, not a restaurant management platform. Use it to generate GST bills after you receive orders.

Can multiple staff use PocketGST?+

Each phone stores data locally. Many outlets use one billing phone at the counter; waiters pass orders, cashier bills in the app.
