  • Built mobile-first — runs in the owner's phone browser, no installs

Who should pick which

Pick Petpooja if…

Deep inventory management for multi-kitchen operations matches your top priority.

Pick ZaikaQR if…

You want a fast, commission-free, multi-language QR menu for dine-in customers and you'd rather set it up yourself in 30 minutes than schedule a sales call.

Frequently asked questions

Should I switch from Petpooja to ZaikaQR?

If you run a single restaurant or small chain and you mostly need a QR menu + dine-in ordering, ZaikaQR is a much lighter, cheaper alternative. If you run 10+ outlets with deep inventory needs, Petpooja's full POS may still be the right fit.

Can ZaikaQR handle GST?

Yes — GST is built into the cart and order totals. We don't do full GST e-invoicing yet (Petpooja does), but for most restaurants the cart-level GST line is what their CA needs.
