QR codes on the tables
QR Order & Payment
Guests order and pay without lining up at the bar, and bartenders focus on the drinks.
Townely for bars, pubs and rooftops.
Guests order and pay by phone at the table, bartenders work on one system, and reservations and events land in one calendar. It also works for beach bars and seasonal venues.
Challenges
Sound familiar?
Lines at the bar
At peak times, guests wait for their order and for the bill, and some skip the next round.
Settling up for a big group
Several people, one bill and lengthy calculations at the table.
A season measured in weeks
Beach bars and rooftops have a short season. Staff, deliveries and reservations have to be up and running right away.
DJ nights
Events bring in guests, but they require tickets, guest lists and entry control.

Questions
Frequently asked questions.
Can guests pay the traditional way?
Yes. QR code payment is a convenience, not a requirement. Guests can always pay their server by card or cash.
Does Townely work on rooftops and beaches?
Townely runs in the browser, so you need devices with internet access. Before the season, check the signal in every area of your venue.
How long does setup take at a bar?
48 hours without online payments, up to 7 days with online payments. The same goes for cocktail bars, clubs and restaurants.
