01 · The story

The story.

The brief

A bar counter is loud, fast and often offline. The till has to work with one hand, keep every tab straight and close the night without an argument.

What we built

  • Two ways to run it: online by subscription, or installed on the counter with no internet at all.
  • Tabs by table, paid by M-Pesa prompt or cash, with printed and digital receipts.
  • KRA ready: VAT included in every price and an eTIMS code on the receipt.
  • Stock that warns you when a drink is running low, with search, add and restock.
  • Shifts that balance: opening float, closing count and the difference, every night.

Where it is now

Built as one shared core with two products: the online system and the offline install.

02 · The design concept

Nothing but the order.

Ink on white, like a printed receipt. No colour fights for attention at 1 am: just the drinks, the tab and one black button to pay.

Signature · Low-stock whisper

A small note in the corner, never a pop-up: “4 products need restocking”, so the counter keeps moving.
