Quick Order

Overview

Quick Order is a pay-first dine-in ordering flow: each table gets a QR code, customers build and customize an order from their phone, and the system issues a pending-payment invoice. Nothing reaches the kitchen until the cashier validates payment — keeping the flow fast for customers and verifiable for the business.

Problem

Dine-in ordering needed a flow where customers order from the table while payment stays verifiable by the cashier before serving.

Solution

A QR table-ordering flow: customers build and customize an order, receive a pending payment invoice, and the cashier validates payment before the order proceeds.

Responsibilities

• Designed the order-to-payment flow end to end
• Built the Vue ordering interface
• Built the Laravel API and invoice workflow
• Modeled the relational schema for orders, items, and payments

Key Features

• Table QR flow
• Menu customization
• Pending payment invoice
• Cashier validation workflow

Technology

• Vue
• Laravel API
• Relational database
• Responsive web

Technical Decisions

• Payment before kitchen: A pending invoice validated by the cashier prevents unverified orders from reaching the kitchen.
• QR per table: Table-scoped QR codes remove account friction — customers order immediately without signing up.
