Contactless Ordering Era and QR Code Preference

The pandemic process has led to permanent changes in consumer habits. The most prominent change in restaurants and cafes has been the gaining importance of the concept of "contactless". Customers now care about hygiene and safety as much as taste. At this point, contactless ordering and QR code technologies come into play.

Customer Expectations Are Changing

Research shows that the vast majority of customers do not want to touch physical menus in restaurants. Accessing the menu from their own phones via QR code gives them both a hygienic sense of security and a feeling that they are in control.

Why is QR Code Preferred?

1. Hygiene and Safety

The biggest factor is undoubtedly health. Using their own personal device instead of a menu booklet touched by hundreds of people offers the customer a sterile experience.

2. Speed and Practicality

Waiting for the waiter to bring the menu, chasing the waiter again to order... These processes become history with the QR code. The customer scans the code as soon as they sit at the table, accesses the menu, and makes their decision.

3. Visual Experience

Systems with modern interfaces like ZekMenu offer the customer an Instagram-like visual feast. Seeing detailed photos of the products increases the desire to order.

4. No Pressure

The pressure of making a hasty decision with the waiter's question "May I take your order?" disappears. The customer can examine the menu as much as they wish and decide comfortably.

What Does the Business Owner Gain?

Increased customer satisfaction directly reflects on the business turnover. Thanks to the contactless ordering system:

• Table turnover rate increases.
• Order errors decrease.
• Staff efficiency increases.

The contactless ordering era is not a temporary trend, but the new standard of restaurant management. Respond to this expectation of your customers with ZekMenu's user-friendly QR and contactless ordering solutions, and get one step ahead in the competition.
