What offline means

What keeps working when the internet drops, and what does not.

What keeps working
Taking orders, settling bills and printing tickets, over USB or Bluetooth in Chrome, or through the browser’s print window.
What does not
Network printers need the internet. Everything else queues.
Coming back
Everything replays in order, once. Every operation carries a client id, so a replayed batch is recognised and never charged twice.
Two tills offline
Each keeps its own local numbering, and the queues merge on return with no duplicates.
Counts
Stock counts work offline, and offline clock-in punches are kept.
Card payments
delEat has no payment processing of its own, so a card payment is as reliable as your own acquirer’s terminal.
Plan and price
Offline mode is on every plan, from AED 149 per outlet a month on a 2-year term.

How it works

Trades, queues, replays once.

Trade with no lineThe device runs the same order maths the server does, from the same rules.
Print from the deviceESC/POS bytes are built on the device, so the kitchen ticket still comes out.
Replay onceEvery operation carries a client id, so a replayed batch is recognised and ignored rather than charged twice.

Questions

The questions people ask first.

What still works on a restaurant POS with no internet?

On delEat: taking orders, settling bills and printing tickets over USB or Bluetooth in Chrome, or through the browser’s print window. Network printers need the internet. Everything queues and replays in order when the line returns.

Will an order be charged twice when the internet comes back?

No. Every operation carries a client id, so a replayed batch is recognised and ignored rather than charged twice.

What if two tills go offline at once?

Each keeps its own local numbering and the queue merges on return with no duplicates.

Do card payments work offline?

delEat has no payment processing of its own. A card payment is as reliable as your own acquirer’s terminal, which you choose.

Which plan includes offline mode?

Every plan. Tab costs AED 149 per outlet a month on a 2-year term, 169 billed yearly or 199 billed monthly, with 30 days free and no card.

Do stock counts work offline?

Yes. Counts work offline and sync when the line returns.
