Menu Tiger lets guests scan a table code, order and pay, with no commission on orders. But the free plan stops at 75 orders a month, the POS is a $30 add-on on the middle plans, and the kitchen screen and table management sit on plans at $46 and $119. A busy restaurant will end up well above the entry price. - **Value for money: C.** Paid plans start at $17 a month, between the $12 middle and the $25 dearer quarter for this category. The POS adds $30 and printers $20 on top. - **Free plan and trial: C.** A free plan with 1 store and 75 orders a month. A restaurant with real traffic passes 75 orders in a few days. - **Features: C.** QR ordering, online ordering, reports, POS and a kitchen display. The kitchen display needs Advanced and table management needs Premium, and the listing flags mismatched limits on the pricing page. - **Ease of use: C.** A web app where you build the menu yourself, and no store rating is on record. Expect to set up items, tables and printers first. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no integrations listed. Everything runs in a browser. These are ToolGPA's own grades.

The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/qr-codes ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace Menu Tiger you would be making checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 26 of the 37 other QR code generators grade higher. It costs $204 a year. - You could make: QR codes and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. - You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
