Day 1 You can have the QR code Live Menu and the ordering infrastructure (staff mobile app + kitchen app) up and operational. That's as fast as how the menu items and staff informations can be entered into the system, and then the QR code be printed to be placed on your tables.

Week 1 The manager platform requires a few days/weeks of order data collection to output meaningful insights, and mapping the menu ingredients with your inventory items requires also a few days of team work with your chef and kitchen team. So typically you can start to leverage the full advantages of doing Menu Engineering, Yield management and Automated Inventory Flow from week 2 and beyond.

And we will be helping you during these first days, and all the time by the way. We can be reached anytime with the platform support chat for any questions and setup help that you may ask.

Nope, and that’s by design.

We built Fluwerio to feel like the apps your staff already live on: intuitive, fast, and zero learning curve drama. Most teams are running full-speed within the first 2–3 shifts, usually with a collective “Wait… that’s it?” moment on day one.

They do it by just scanning a QR code from within the platform, or by directly copying the secure URL with their access code. Their browser will automatically open a secure session with the staff or kitchen apps.

That avoids them the lengthy process of downloading apps from app stores, setting up login and passwords, having to do updates etc...

Instead, they immediatelly get the latest version of the apps ready to use by a swift QR code scan, without having to memorize accesses and passwords every morning.

Nope, it’s built for the real world and fully running within a browser. So your cooks get their app that works on whatever hardware you already have:

-> Old laptop in the corner? Perfect.
-> Shiny big new touchscreen? Even better.
-> Someone’s phone or tablet? Still works like magic.

Orders pop up crystal-clear, they click "Preparing" -> "Ready", and the floor instantly knows exactly when to run the plate. No more shouting, no printers dying mid-rush, no "Where’s Table 8’s steak?!"

It’s the same system your waitstaff use, just flipped for back-of-house speed. Zero extra hardware required, zero excuses accepted. Your kitchen will love it on shift one. Promise.

Nope, you can skip them altogether if you are running a solo show or a small team. The platform has everything already to run the full operation: menu, orders, deliveries, reservations, insights.

We don't handle payments processing nor receipts printing. Fluwerio is to be used alongside your current POS software to enhance it instead.

Fluwerio is primarily designed to help restaurants like yours to sustain growth and profitability with MENU ENGINEERING and YIELD MANAGEMENT by leveraging insights from your operational data.

We get it: taxes, VAT, payroll, and the full accounting puzzle can feel like a deal-breaker when you're evaluating new tools. But here's the good news: instead of building in rigid accounting features that might not match your local rules or setup, we keep things flexible and universal.
For the basics, revenues and expenses recorded within fluwerio can be easily exported in CSV, and ready to drop straight into your favorite accounting software or your accountant's spreadsheets.

The result? Restaurants like yours adopt Fluwerio faster, integrate it with what they already trust, and focus on what matters: super effective menus, happy guests, and growing profits.

100 % yes, and it’ll feel like it was born there. You write your menu exactly how your guests speak: Spanish in Madrid, Portuguese in Lisbon or Rio, Italian in Rome, German in Berlin, French in Paris, and of course the local English flavor in NY and London or Sydney ... whatever your customers read, that’s what they’ll see.

Dish names? Your words.
Descriptions? Your vibe.

Even the buttons ("ALL", "FAVORITES", "DICOUNTS", "My Order") are rendered in the local language the second a guest scans: you define the exact translations by yourself!

No clunky Google Translate feel. No "Bacalhau à Brás" followed by broken English. Just a perfectly native menu that makes every visitor think "Finally, someone who gets us."

Set it once, forget it forever: watch guests order faster, tip better, and actually read your chef´s love letters

Absolutely, you can. And we provide something even better: an online variant for just that purpose, ie. a fully embedable menu that will perfectly fit within your existing website design, and in your language! That will give your visitors the full menu experience: check availabilities right now, see highlights and discounts.

Of course, our customers are actively participating in the shaping of the whole platform, and we encourage newly onboarded users to do so. Feel free to reach out and we'll be happy to explore specific ideas together with you, especially regarding the platform usability. And even better, our PRO and PREMIUM users can commission us to build features for their specific needs. The improvement of Fluwerio is a never ending endeavor.
