The honest part

Running a restaurant in 2026 is brutal. SmakSpace is built around the parts that hurt most.

Vendor lock-in

Lightspeed doubled the bill.

And then made cafés switch to their payments or pay 1.5% more on every transaction. SmakSpace is one flat NZD subscription. You pick your EFTPOS — no surcharge from us, ever.

Marketplace cut

"Uber Eats is killing us."

Marketplace commissions can quietly take 30%+ of an order. SmakSpace direct orders go through your own QR menu and ordering page — no per-order cut on direct sales. The customer relationship and the margin stay yours.

Stacked subscriptions

"Five apps that don't talk to each other."

POS, bookings, loyalty, online ordering, kitchen display — usually five vendors, five logins, five bills. SmakSpace consolidates all of it into one NZ-built platform. One team to email, and a person replies within one working day.

Leaving Quandoo

Quandoo has closed.

Quandoo stopped managing bookings on 30 September and the platform is now offline. Send us your Quandoo export or booking list and our team keys your upcoming bookings in for you and loads your customer list on request; no-show flags carry on for every booking you take here.

AI Free · AI menu import

Upload a photo of your menu — chalkboard, laminated card, anything.

Everything in one place

One quiet, dependable system. Built for the way restaurants actually run.

One menu, every channel

Update once — your QR table and direct online ordering update instantly. Uber Eats & DoorDash menu sync rolling out via partner programs (early access). Stop double-entering specials at 3pm.

QR ordering, table-aware

Customers scan, order, and pay from the table. Tickets go straight to the right station. No app download, no queue at the till.

Kitchen display included

Course pacing, prep timers, item notes & modifiers. No separate KDS subscription, no Bluetooth pairing dance.

Loyalty that builds itself

Digital stamp cards, birthday drops, win-back email campaigns — using customer data you already own. Stop renting customers from Meta.

Use your own NZ EFTPOS

Keep your existing in-store terminal — Smartpay, Worldline, whatever you run today. Orders placed online or by QR take card through your own Stripe, Windcave or PayPal account; kiosk orders are paid at the counter. No surcharge from us for using your own.

Reports your accountant will thank you for

Connect Xero and paid orders sync as invoices automatically — or use NZ-GST-correct CSV exports. No spreadsheets, no journal-entry overtime.

No app to download.

They scan, they order, they pay. Built to feel quick and friction-free. And every order builds a profile you own — not a marketplace.

Things operators ask before they switch.

Yes. Your in-store EFTPOS terminal (Smartpay, Worldline, Verifone, etc.) continues to work for in-person payments — nothing in SmakSpace changes that. For online orders we integrate with Stripe, Windcave and PayPal gateways. We don't charge a surcharge for using your existing setup. Confirm specifics during setup.

Three differences. (1) Flat NZD pricing — never quietly changing to USD or doubling. (2) You pick your EFTPOS, no payments-processor lock-in. (3) Built and supported in NZ time by a small team you can actually reach.

Onboarding is designed to take 48 hours: we load your menu for you — keyed in from our CSV template, or drafted by our AI from a photo of the printed menu — and you can take your first direct order by day 2. On request we load your customer list for you during onboarding and seed loyalty points for your regulars; historical sales stay in your old system, so export them before you cancel. You can run both systems in parallel for as long as you want.

Yes — our team does it by hand, and that is on us. Send us your Quandoo export and we key your upcoming bookings into SmakSpace and load your customer list for you; historical covers stay in the export for your records, and no-show flags work on every booking from day one. Quandoo stopped managing bookings on 30 September 2026, so the sooner your diary is in one place, the better.

Yes — two ways. Connect your Xero account and paid orders sync to Xero as invoices automatically. Or use the GST-correct CSV exports — revenue, orders, top items and customer metrics per period — for the manual journal workflow. Per-payment-provider settlement columns, surcharges-by-line and tip columns are on our roadmap.

Marketplace menu sync to Uber Eats and DoorDash is in early access — both platforms require formal partner-program approval before live menu pushes are enabled for a specific store, and approval is not guaranteed for every venue. Join the waitlist on our Uber Eats menu sync page and we will confirm your eligibility and expected rollout window once partner approval lands for your store. In the meantime, we recommend keeping a thin marketplace presence for discovery and using a printed QR insert to convert those guests into direct customers. Other NZ delivery providers are on our roadmap.

Yes, on Professional and Enterprise plans. Course pacing, prep timers, item notes and modifiers. No per-screen surcharge.

Self-serve CSV export anytime — orders, revenue, customers and top items. No exit fees. Month-to-month from day one. Aligned with NZ Privacy Act 2020 (IPP3A) on consent and data portability.
