How it works

A shop day, in order.

Not a feature list. This is the sequence the work actually happens in, from an empty shop to a reconciled till.

01

Your shop exists the moment it is created.

We add the restaurant and its address works immediately — yourshop.stellik.com, with its own sign-in, its own staff and its own menu. Nothing is shared with any other restaurant on the platform, and nothing about your shop is reachable from anyone else's address.

02

Build the menu once.

Categories, items and photos. Prices can vary by size — medium and large, or three sizes, or none at all — without anyone writing code, because a size is a row rather than a column. Mark an item vegetarian, give it a chilli rating, and set anything that is really an add-on as an extra.

Owners edit the menu themselves. It is not a support ticket.

03

Take the order.

Tap the item, tap the size, add extras to the line rather than to the order — so cheese goes on that pizza and prints indented underneath it. A large with cheese and a plain large are separate lines with separate quantities, and taking the cheese off merges them back together.

The basket lives in the session, not the browser tab, so a reload mid-order loses nothing.

04

Two copies, one job, already parted.

Customer copy then shop copy, separated by a page break — which is what makes a thermal printer feed and cut so the two come off the roll already separated. A jammed print is not a lost order: the day's list has a Reprint button on every line.

05

A login and a shift PIN are not the same thing.

Staff on a busy counter share one device and hand it over mid-service. Nobody types an email address between customers.

A login

Email and password. Decides who may reach the shop at all — typed once per device, per session, and rarely after that.

A shift PIN

Four to eight digits. Decides who is operating an already-signed-in tablet. Tap your name, type your number, and your name is on the work until you hand it over.

A PIN grants nothing. It cannot sign in, cannot outlive the device session, and cannot be used at a shop the tablet is not already signed in to. All it decides is whose name goes against the work.

Which is the point — until the names are real, nothing built on top of them is worth anything. A shop with no staff added is untouched by any of this.

06

An order is never deleted.

It keeps its row, its lines and its number, and stays in the day struck through with a reason and a name against it. A reversed sale reads as reversed, not as absent.

Before the receipt printed

A mis-tap being corrected. Logged, and nobody needs to hear about it.

After the receipt printed

A receipt may be in a customer's hand and money may have changed hands. It prints a VOID slip and joins the owner's review queue, with an unread count in the nav — because a queue you have to remember to open is a queue that goes unread.

Today only

Once a shop day is over, its totals are what the owner reconciled cash against. Correcting an older mistake is a conversation with the owner, not a tap on a tablet.

It does not wait for the owner

A customer in a car park cannot wait for someone who is asleep, and a control that stops the shop trading gets worked around within a week. The control is that the owner finds out, with a name attached, and has to say they have seen it.

GROSS

Everything rung up today.

CANCELLED

Its own column. Never quietly subtracted out of sight.

NET

What the till should hold. Count it against this.

Under it

Small enough to explain in one page.

A shop tablet on a bad connection is the device that matters, so the whole thing is built to be small and to keep working. Every figure here is measured, not estimated.

What to buy

Answer two questions and we will tell you what to buy.

We do not sell hardware and take nothing from anyone who does, which is why this tells you what to avoid as plainly as what to get. These are classes of device — check current models before ordering.

Where is the order taken?
Which way do you want to spend?

An Android tablet and a portable 80mm Bluetooth printer.

The cheapest setup that actually works. Check the printer publishes an Android print service before you buy — budget brands often do not, and without one printing is painful from day one.

An Android tablet and a name-brand portable 80mm printer.

Epson's TM-P80 class or similar. Better paper handling, a real print service, and a battery that survives a full service. The difference shows up on a Saturday night, not on day one.

A spare Android phone in kiosk mode, plus an 80mm printer.

Chrome's --kiosk-printing makes printing fire silently to the default printer, so an old phone held on the print station page drives the counter printer with no dialog and nobody touching it.

An 80mm Ethernet printer and a small always-on box.

A network printer speaking raw ESC/POS, driven by something like a Raspberry Pi Zero. It is a machine the roaming employee does not control and cannot intercept, which is the point.

Whatever you pick: it must be Android and not an iPad. Silent printing over Bluetooth is something Chrome on Android supports and iOS does not and will not — the one decision that is expensive to reverse.

A printer at the counter is a machine the roaming employee does not control and cannot intercept.

Once VOID slips print there, cancelling a paid sale stops being something that happens quietly in a car park and starts leaving paper at the shop. It is the strongest control in the whole design and it costs about one second-hand phone.
