Square for Restaurants alternative
A Square for Restaurants alternative for ordering and operations
Kitchra isn't a till — it's the commission-free ordering site and back-of-house platform that runs alongside whatever register you use, Square included. Keep taking payment your way; add your own branded ordering, the kitchen screens, and the stock, staff and finance tools for one flat monthly price.
Ordering + back office, beside your register
Square for Restaurants is a point-of-sale with built-in payments. Kitchra is different: your own branded ordering site plus the kitchen, stock, staff and finance layer — running alongside Square, not replacing it. Keep ringing sales where you do today and add commission-free online ordering and the operations behind it.
0% commission, flat monthly
One flat monthly price and 0% commission on your online orders — no per-order cut. Guests order ahead and pay you directly at pickup or delivery, so there's no processing fee on those orders either. Predictable, not a percentage of every sale.
The tools Square charges extra for
Kitchen display and prep, stock on hand with variance and waste, the staff rota and time clock, tips, supplier invoices, guest CRM, loyalty and gift cards, and your real P&L — the operational back of house, included in one plan instead of assembled from add-ons.
Your customer list, not a processor's
Every online order captures the guest into a list you own and can export, with loyalty and opt-in text/email to bring them back. You're the owner of the relationship — not renting access to your own customers.
