What Alivo gives you back

Time.

The last time you sat at a great bar with great friends, what ruined the moment? Flagging staff down. Waiting for the card machine. Splitting the bill.

Alivo gives you back the minutes you came here to spend. Scan once, order when you feel like it, pay when you leave. That is the whole thing.

You didn't come out to do admin. You came out to be here.

For venue owners

Your best hour, every hour.

Running a busy venue shouldn't mean running behind the bar. Alivo lets your customers order from their table, builds their tab automatically, and handles payment when they are done. No walk-outs. No split-bill gymnastics. No staff chasing tables at closing time.

1

Stop losing money to walk-outs.

When a guest orders, their card is secured up front. If they leave without paying, Alivo captures the tab automatically. You stop writing it off as the cost of doing business.

2

Free your staff to do what they do best.

Orders come through the system. Staff pour drinks and greet people. Nobody runs between tables and card machines. Your team is on the floor, not behind a screen.

3

Turn tables faster, without rushing anyone.

Guests pay when they are ready with one tap. No calling the waiter. No waiting in line. Tables clear themselves the moment the guest is done.

Launching in Durbanville. First live session: late 2026.
