For Cafes

Less line at the counter. More time on the espresso machine.

Nom turns every table into an ordering station. Guests scan, browse the menu, customize, and pay from their phone. Your barista pulls shots instead of taking orders.

Why does this matter for cafes?

Mornings at a cafe are spike traffic. When a single barista is taking orders, ringing up GCash, and pulling shots, the line gets long and orders get wrong. The bottleneck is order capture, not coffee.

Nom moves the order from the counter to the customer's phone. Once an order is placed it goes straight to the bar, with sizes, milks, syrups, and special instructions exactly as the customer entered them — no transcription error.

Payment runs in parallel. GCash and Maya proofs upload before the espresso is ready, so you serve and they leave without a second touchpoint.

How do customers order?

  1. Walks in, sits down, scans the QR on the table
  2. Browses the menu with photos, sees that the matcha latte is marked vegan and dairy-free
  3. Picks oat milk, adds an extra shot, adds a custom note for the barista
  4. Pays via GCash — the proof of payment auto-fills the reference number from the receipt screenshot
  5. Sees real-time status: Confirmed -> Preparing -> Ready -> Served

How does Nom fit cafes?

Time-based menu availability

Breakfast-only items disappear at 11am automatically. Weekend specials show up only on Saturday and Sunday. No menu surgery every morning.

Customization that the bar actually reads

Sizes, milks, syrup pumps, extra shots, dietary swaps — all structured. The kitchen ticket prints in order with the modifications highlighted.

Loyalty for your regulars

On Growth and up, regulars earn and redeem points on every order. Running several branches? On Enterprise, the balance they earned in BGC works in Makati too.

Honest tipping

Guests can leave a tip with one-tap chips for 10/15/20 percent or skip entirely. Tips go straight to the team. Nom takes no cut.

Allergen-safe filtering

Guests with allergies set their profile once. Items with conflicts are marked at the top, and checkout double-checks. Big 9 allergens supported plus vegetarian and vegan.

Senior Citizen and PWD discounts

Staff apply the Senior Citizen or PWD discount on a POS order with the customer's name and ID number. Nom does not issue BIR receipts, so keep your accredited POS for official receipts.
