Everything you need to run a service
Manage tables and service
See every table at a glance, including which are open and how long they’ve been occupied. Open a table, add to the order throughout the meal, move items or orders between tables, and close the bill when customers pay.

Track every staff action
Every discount, void and refund is linked to a staff member. Use PIN permissions to control who can approve them and see it by shift.
:format(webp))
Send orders to the kitchen
Courses, modifiers and special requests are sent to the correct kitchen or bar printer automatically. With Prep Stations, food orders go to the kitchen and drinks go to the bar.

Take payment at the counter or the table
Add a Khumo 2 to take orders and payment at the table, that directly syncs with your Counter. Accept cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay with Neo Touch.

A Friday service on Yoco Counter
From the first order to the final payment.
11:30: Doors open
Last night’s cash-up is already reconciled, so you start on a clean till.
12:15: Table six orders in two rounds
Add the second round to the open order rather than ringing up twice.
19:40: Full house
Starters print at the kitchen, the wine prints at the bar, and nobody carries a docket across the floor.
20:20: A six-way split on a table open since lunch
Split by item or by amount at the table on a Khumo 2, tip prompt included.
22:50: Cash up
Every void, discount and refund is already against the staff name that approved it. Export your sales report and close the day.

Yes. On the Pro plan, Yoco Counter includes full table management. You can set up your floor plan, assign tables, open tabs, add to running orders, transfer items between tables, and settle at the end of the sitting. Your front-of-house staff can also take orders and payments tableside using a Khumo 2 handheld device.
When paired with a Yoco Printer, orders placed on the Counter are sent directly to the kitchen or bar printer the moment they are confirmed.
With Prep Stations (available on the Pro plan), you can route food orders to the kitchen printer and drink orders to the bar printer automatically, so each station only sees what it needs to prepare.
Yes. Yoco Counter lets guests split by item or by amount, so each person can settle their share at the table without manual calculations.
Yoco Counter starts at R2,999 (save 40%), including the 12-inch HD touchscreen, Neo Touch card machine and free point of sale software.
Transaction fees start at 2.30% (ex. VAT) on the Core plan and go lower on Plus (from 2.10%) and Pro (from 1.95%). No setup fees, no connectivity fees, no contracts.
Add a Yoco Printer for kitchen order slips from R1,949. Free delivery within 3 business days.
Table management, tableside ordering and Prep Stations are available on the Pro plan at R499/month. You can start on the free Core plan and upgrade to Pro when you are ready. The first month of Pro is free.
Yes. Khumo 2 is a handheld point of sale device your waitstaff can carry to the table. It runs the same point of sale software as the Counter, so orders placed tableside appear on the Counter screen and are sent to the kitchen printer automatically. Staff can also take card, tap, and QR payments directly at the table.
Yoco Counter accepts Visa and Mastercard (debit and credit), Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay via tap, chip and PIN, QR codes and mobile wallets through the Neo Touch card machine.
Most payments reflect within 2 business days, but often sooner. If you need funds immediately, Yoco offers instant payouts so you can access your money right away. You can see your transaction history and payout timelines in the Yoco App.
Yoco Counter connects via Wi-Fi or through a built-in multi-network SIM with 4G backup. If your Wi-Fi goes down during load shedding, the device switches to mobile data automatically so you can keep taking orders and payments.
For longer outages, you can also run a Khumo 2 alongside Counter on the same account as a backup device, with its own 18-hour battery and multi-network SIM.
Yes. On the Pro plan, you can set staff PIN permissions for discounts, voids and refunds. Every action is logged against the staff member, so you have full visibility in your reports.
Your Yoco Counter arrives pre-loaded with everything you need. Most restaurants are up and running the same day. Build your menu in the Yoco App while you wait for delivery, then unbox, connect your printers, set up your tables and start taking orders.

There were no cables, no clunky hardware. It’s just easy. If I message our rep on WhatsApp, she replies immediately – that kind of support makes all the difference.
Michael, co-owner at Sparkys
It’s easy to use…anyone can do it. With the app, I track the day from anywhere. It makes me feel like I’m truly in business.
Ollie, owner at Ollies Café
We kept asking ourselves, how did we not have this sooner? It’s completely changed things, running the food truck is so much simpler now.
Braidy, Vegan Streetfood
On a practical level, the integration between Yoco and Light Speed Tablet is great. The backend functions are really useful when you need to easily pull up a report, it’s incredibly user-friendly. It’s been smooth sailing - I love working with Yoco.
Emma Daye Vith
I like that Yoco is integrated with our POS system. I love that it’s always working, whether we have loadshedding or not. I LOVE the people that work there and I’m always impressed by the customer service.
Pieter Aucamp, manager at New York Bagels
There’s the obvious simplicity and efficiency of having our point-of-sale system communicate directly with our payment devices. Limiting manual input with the POS directly pushing bill amounts to our Yoco devices mitigates errors and makes life easier, but the direct integration of POS and Yoco payment devices is valuable well beyond this ease and time-saving.
