What it costs at your size
Venditas costs ₹3 per paid order. Petpooja’s prices below assume the plans are yearly, per outlet, as software listings describe them, and are shown per month. All figures are before taxes, for a restaurant open 30 days a month.
| Paid orders a day | Venditas | Venditas, guests pay | Petpooja Base | Petpooja Growth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | ₹900 | ₹0 | ₹1,000 | ₹1,667 |
| 25 | ₹2,250 | ₹0 | ₹1,000 | ₹1,667 |
| 50 | ₹4,500 | ₹0 | ₹1,000 | ₹1,667 |
| 100 | ₹9,000 | ₹0 | ₹1,000 | ₹1,667 |
To be straight about it: at around 11 paid orders a day, ₹3 per order costs the same as Petpooja’s Base plan, and at around 19 a day it costs the same as Growth, the plan that adds the captain app, kitchen display and QR ordering. Above that, a yearly plan costs less, unless your guests pay the ₹3 as a platform fee, in which case Venditas costs the restaurant nothing. Use the pricing calculator with your own numbers.
What Venditas does its own way
- One price, nothing to unlock. The captain app, kitchen screen, QR ordering, stock from recipes, tips and reports are all in the same ₹3.
- Staff screens in Hindi and Marathi. Each staff member picks their language. See billing in Hindi.
- A watch list with names. Every cancelled item, discount, reprint and bill change after printing shows who did it. See stopping billing leaks.
- A phone agent add-on. It answers your restaurant’s calls in Indian languages and puts phone orders straight on your counter screen. See the phone agent.
- No yearly commitment. Pay monthly, by UPI, for the orders you actually bill.
