Does Tallium work for a small café as well as a full restaurant?

Yes. A single coffee counter pays $79/mo and gets the same POS, stock, and accounting a large dining room uses. You only add outlets as you grow, so the cost matches your size.

Can it handle dine-in, takeaway, and delivery on one screen?

Yes. Staff pick the order type at checkout, and each is recorded with the correct 5% VAT. Everything flows into the same daily takings and the same books.

Will it keep working if the internet goes down during service?

The POS has an offline mode, so you can keep taking orders and printing receipts. When the connection returns, those sales sync into your accounts automatically.

Is Tallium ready for the FTA in Dubai?

Tallium calculates 5% VAT on every sale and produces a VAT 201-ready summary, and it tracks profit toward the 9% Corporate Tax threshold. Always confirm current rules on the FTA website before you file.

Do I need separate software for my accountant?

No. Your accountant can work from the same reports and VAT summaries Tallium produces, so there's nothing to export and re-import. It's one system for the front of house and the back office.

The daily headaches we remove

The till and the books never agree

A separate POS means someone re-keys every day's takings into a spreadsheet or accounting app. Numbers drift, and reconciliation eats your evenings.

Food cost is a guess

Without recipe-level stock, you only learn your margins after the supplier invoices pile up. By then the waste has already happened.

VAT filing stress every quarter

Dining, delivery, and service charges all need the right 5% treatment. Getting the FTA VAT 201 wrong is a real worry for busy owners.

No clear view across shifts or branches

If you run a second outlet in Marina or Deira, comparing performance means juggling exports and WhatsApp messages from managers.

How Tallium fixes it

One tap from order to ledger

Every sale posts straight to your accounts and to your VAT return automatically. The takings you see at close are the numbers in your books.

Recipe-linked stock control

Link dishes to ingredients so each sale draws down stock in real time. You see live food cost and get alerts before you run out of a key item.

FTA-ready VAT and Corporate Tax

Tallium calculates 5% VAT on every ticket and builds a VAT 201-ready summary, plus a running view of profit for the 9% Corporate Tax line.

AI insights across every outlet

Ask plain questions like which day is slowest or which dish carries the best margin, and get answers pulled from your live sales.
