Foodlay Desktop POS | Offline Desktop Application Add-on

Foodlay Desktop POS — Offline Restaurant POS App

Foodlay Desktop POS is an offline-first desktop POS application for restaurants, cafes, and food businesses. It runs as a native app on Windows, macOS, and Linux, keeps the full product catalog and every order in a local SQLite database, and keeps taking orders at full speed even when the internet goes down — pending orders sync back to your server automatically the moment the connection returns.

⚠️ Requires the Foodlay Admin & Web Panel (separate purchase). This item is the desktop POS client only. It connects to a running installation of the Foodlay Admin & Web Panel — the Laravel-based server product, which is a separate purchase and is not included in this package. Without that server, the POS cannot log in or load products. The documentation includes a dedicated “Connecting to Your Server” guide covering every configuration value with concrete examples.

Key Features

• Offline-first ordering — take orders, apply coupons, park carts, and print receipts with no internet; orders queue locally and push automatically when you’re back online
• Multi-branch — the cashier picks a POS-enabled branch after login; each branch has its own menu, prices, and categories
• Fast product grid — category filter, real-time search by name or SKU, variant and add-on selection dialogs, discount badges
• Full cart workflow — takeaway or home delivery, live totals with tax and discounts, delivery address capture
• Parked carts — put an order on hold with a label (“Table 5”), serve the next customer, resume any time; parked carts survive restarts
• Offline coupon validation — coupon codes are validated locally against the synced coupon list (expiry, minimum order, active state)
• Customer lookup — live server search when online, recently-seen cache when offline, walk-in guest mode
• Payments — cash with change-due calculation, card (last-4 capture), customer wallet, or send-a-payment-link through a third-party gateway (Stripe, SSLCommerz, or others configured on your server). Gateway fees are separate and are not included in this item — see the notice below.
• Thermal receipt printing — any ESC/POS printer (Epson, Star, and compatibles) over network, USB, serial, or Windows printer queue
• Order history & sync monitor — per-order sync status (synced / pending / failed with server error message) and one-click “Push Pending”
• 5 UI languages — English, Bengali, Spanish, Arabic (full RTL), Hindi
• Keyboard-first — complete shortcut set for high-volume counter use
• Automatic branding — store name and logo sync from your admin panel; accent color themes per till
