Custom Eatcard integration development
Appfront builds integrations with Eatcard, the hospitality platform for ordering, payments and more: QR ordering at the table, an ordering website, self-order kiosks, a till, reservations and a kitchen display. Eatcard works with point-of-sale systems. For hospitality businesses that also want the data in their own systems, for example for stock, loyalty, accounting or reporting across locations, we build the integration.
What is an Eatcard integration?
Eatcard is a hospitality platform that brings together ordering and payment: guests order and pay via a QR code at the table, through an ordering website or at a self-order kiosk, and orders appear in the till and on the kitchen display. There are also reservations and reports. Eatcard works with various point-of-sale systems, so orders reach the till automatically.
Many hospitality businesses have systems of their own alongside Eatcard: for stock and purchasing, for a loyalty programme, for accounting, or for reporting across several branches. The data from Eatcard is then exported and processed by hand. A product that changes on the menu is updated in three places. And anyone who wants to see revenue from all branches side by side merges files every week.
We build custom solutions because hospitality businesses differ: which systems you use alongside Eatcard, which data needs to flow in both directions, and how many locations you have. We will look at which integration options Eatcard offers for your situation in the first step, together with you and Eatcard. We do not promise an integration that Eatcard does not permit.

How we build your Eatcard integration
We start with your business: which systems you use alongside Eatcard, which data is currently handled by hand, how many outlets you have, and who needs to see what. Then we review with Eatcard which route is available. We build first what removes the most manual work, often the revenue transfer to accounting or the sales feed to stock. After that we expand, outlet by outlet, so the business is not disrupted.

Why choose Appfront for your Eatcard integration?
A product that has to be adjusted in three places, and a revenue overview that is merged every week, cost time that belongs in the business. We build around that: data in your own systems, outlets side by side, and a route that Eatcard supports.
Less manual work
No exports and merging.
One view
All outlets side by side.
Reconciled
Through a route that Eatcard supports.
Security and privacy in an Eatcard integration
The integration processes data on orders, revenue and, in some cases, guests. Access credentials are stored encrypted and used only by the integration, and every message is logged. Guest data is used only where this is permitted.
The integration runs in a European data centre, with encrypted storage and daily backups.
Frequently asked questions about an Eatcard integration
Questions hospitality businesses ask before getting started.
Eatcard is a hospitality platform for ordering and payment: QR ordering at the table, an ordering website, self-ordering kiosks, a till, reservations and a kitchen display, in one system.
Yes, including with various till systems, so that orders flow into the till automatically. If that is the only integration you need, a custom one isn't necessary. A custom integration is for your other systems, such as stock, loyalty, accounting or central reporting across multiple locations.
Through the connectivity options that Eatcard provides. In the first step, together with you and Eatcard, we'll look at which route suits your systems and which data can flow in each direction.
Yes. Orders and revenue from all locations come together in one overview, so you can compare by day, by location and by product, without merging files. For example, you can see which products sell well at one site but not another, or how QR ordering performs alongside ordering at the bar.
If Eatcard allows it for your setup, products and prices can come from your own product management. That way a change only needs to be made once, and the same menu is used across all locations.
The integration raises an alert and records what went wrong. The message is retried or set aside for review, so no order or revenue goes missing from your systems. At the end of the day, the integration can compare totals, so any discrepancy is spotted straight away.
For hospitality businesses with multiple locations or their own systems for stock, loyalty or reporting, and for software vendors who want to connect their product to Eatcard. For a single outlet using only Eatcard and a till, the standard integration is often enough.
