Most 'About Us' Pages Are Lies.
So here's the truth. We saw a stupidly inefficient system. We knew we could build a better one. We figured restaurants shouldn't have to pay for it. The end.
Our Story
Let's skip the fluffy “every idea starts with a problem” intro. Our problem was simple—and you've lived it a thousand times: the end of a great meal shouldn't feel like a hostage negotiation.
It doesn't matter if you're wrangling kids at brunch or trying to look professional at a business lunch. It always ends the same: the awkward wave, the hunt for the card machine, the math quiz over who owes what; all while you're just trying to leave.
This isn't on the staff or the service - they are doing their best; it's a system failure no brigade of servers can fully patch. Even the best‑run restaurant still puts guests through the same dance of waving, splitting, and shuffling cards because the technology is stuck in the past.
The “aha” moment wasn't some grand vision. It hit just before Christmas 2023, at a place where paying took only three minutes—and that felt magic compared with the usual ordeal. The feeling was so good we stayed another ten just to talk about what do we, the guest, actually want. We started thinking from first principle. The best thing a restaurant can do when you're ready to leave is help you disappear—swiftly, friction‑free—while your wait‑staff focus on hospitality, not cashier duty.
If that gap between “Shall we get the check?” and “See you next time” feels like a black hole of wasted time to you, you're not alone.
Why we built the Digital Fox
We've spent decades building fintech that millions use every day—apps where a single tap moves mountains. So when we looked at restaurants, spaces designed for connection, it drove us nuts that the final, most crucial step was still stuck in the dark ages.
We saw the slick payment solutions overseas and how much value they are bringing to the restaurants. Then we looked at what was available in Europe: clunky, complicated, uninspired tools that felt like bad copies of someone else's homework.
That wasn't just an opportunity; it was an insult. We knew Europe deserved better than a second-rate version of a playbook written for another continent. So we decided to build something specifically for Europe's unique, chaotic, and brilliant hospitality culture—without compromise. This isn't about geography; it's about standards. We respect the innovation (and the deep capital pools) across the pond, but we refuse to accept that the best ideas can't be born and built right here.
So we went all‑in—bet the house, literally. If you bring enough talent, grit, and relentless execution, you can rewrite the rules. We're not building something that's "good enough for Europe." We're building the best payment experience in the world. Period.
Fix One Thing, Improve
Everything.
Give staff back 10 minutes per table
Time they can spend creating real moments of service, not chasing payments. That’s where their craft shines.
Lift tips by 80% for waitstaff
Because we know from our very own experience how hard waiting tables can be and what that extra income means.
Help operators turn tables 30% faster
Not by rushing guests, but by making the goodbye as smooth as the hello.
This Isn't a Disruption. It's a Hostile Takeover.
Let's be clear. We're not here to "join the conversation" in hospitality tech. We're here to end it and start a new one.
The current standard is unacceptable, and we're replacing it. Our method is simple: we find the dumbest, most inefficient parts of running a restaurant and we systematically eliminate them with better technology. We're not chasing fads; we're building an arsenal of tools that give you an unfair advantage.
If you're running a restaurant, consider us your new R&D department. Tell us your problems, and we'll turn them into our next project. If you want to be part of the team that finally drags this industry into the future, kicking and screaming if necessary, let's talk.
We're building tomorrow's way, today. Because we're impatient.
Meet The Engine.
We're not a "family." We're a small, lethal team of builders. No VPs of Synergy, no layers of management. Just a flat hierarchy of people who are obsessed with fixing what's broken. If a problem exists, it's everyone's job to kill it—whether it's with code, an ops fire, or a support ticket. We don't care about titles or tenure. We care about results. This is the engine that drives the whole operation.
