The challenge

The cost of running canteens on coupons and spreadsheets

Most corporate canteens still depend on manual counts and vendor-reported numbers. Finance sees the cost only when the invoice arrives.

01

Queues and blind ordering

Employees line up without knowing the menu, their entitlement, or what they have already used this week.

02

Headcount disputes

Vendors bill on estimates. Facilities argue the count. Nobody has a trusted record of who actually collected a meal.

03

Month-end surprises

Canteen cost cannot be split by cost center. Accruals are guesses and invoice matching is manual and late.

Customizable and configurable

One product, your policies

SimplyMeal is policy-driven. Credits, menus, eligibility, cost centers and billing rules are configuration, not code. We tailor the product to how your company runs its canteen.

Employee credits

Credit amount per client, daily issue, and an expiry rule you choose: same day or weekly carry-forward.

Calorie tracking

Calories per item from the vendor menu, rolled up per employee and per vendor.

Vendor menus

Vendor uploads a standard menu and daily specials. Admin approves before it goes live.

Vendor POS machine

QR scan, walk-in sales, offline mode and token printing at every counter.

Employee feedback

Ratings and comments per meal and per vendor, feeding a vendor scorecard.

Cost-center metrics

Spend by employee, department, cost center, location, vendor and occasion.

Vendor invoices

Vendor uploads invoices against the month's scanned meals. Differences are flagged line by line.

Accrual support

Month-end accrual from collected meals, matched to invoices, exported to your ERP.

How it works

From occasion to scanned meal in five steps

1

Pick the occasion

Breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner, midnight meal. Each has its own ordering window.

2

Choose from the vendor menu

Per counter and per vendor. Veg and non-veg tags, calories and price.

3

Order for self or guest

Paid by meal credit, wallet or UPI. Guest orders go to a cost center.

4

Scan at the vendor POS

Unique QR per order. The POS machine at the counter verifies it once.

5

Tracked and reported

Every scan becomes a billable event with employee, vendor, occasion and time.

Employee credits

Daily credits with an expiry rule you choose

Some companies want unused credit to lapse the same day. Others let it roll within the week. Both are a setting in SimplyMeal, per client, per grade, per shift or per location.

OPTION A

Same-day expiry

Credit issued each morning. Whatever is unused lapses at midnight. Simple, predictable spend per day.

OPTION B

Weekly carry-forward

Unused credit rolls to the next day within the week, then expires at week end. No cross-week accumulation.

  • ✓Which occasions the credit applies to
  • ✓Top-up by employee wallet or UPI when credit runs out
  • ✓Guest meals charged to a cost center, not to the employee credit
  • ✓Full, partial or percentage subsidies with daily and monthly caps
  • ✓Policy changes take effect on a date you choose, with full audit trail
For vendors

Upload menus and invoices, serve with a POS

Every vendor counter gets a POS machine supplied with SimplyMeal, plus a web portal for menus, orders and invoices.

  • Scan the employee QR, block duplicate pickups, print tokens
  • Walk-in sales by UPI or card on the same device, offline capable
  • Standard menu published once, daily specials with admin approval
  • Live counts per item for the current occasion
  • Upload the monthly invoice and see it matched to scanned meals

Cost-center metrics and accrual support

Scanned meals are the source of truth. Month-end accruals, invoice matching and cost-center allocation follow from them.

  • Meals and spend by employee, department, cost center, location, vendor and occasion
  • Credit usage: issued, used, carried, expired
  • Vendor accrual = scanned meals × contracted rate, per vendor per month
  • Invoice versus accrual variance at line level, with approval trail
  • CSV and Excel exports for ERP posting, scheduled reports by email
Illustration

12,000 scanned meals × ₹100

= ₹12,00,000 vendor payable. Employee share ₹4,80,000, company share ₹7,20,000, split across cost centers automatically and matched to the vendor invoice at month end.

Integrations

SSO, HRMS employee sync, UPI and wallet payments, RFID or QR scanners, email and WhatsApp notifications, ERP cost-center and GL mapping.
