Quick answers about SterkChef
What is SterkChef?
SterkChef is a multi-tenant restaurant operating system that combines POS, kitchen display (KDS), self-service kiosk, takeaway, mini-POS, waiter tablet, courier app, QR ordering and a backoffice in one synchronised platform. It is offline-first and fiscal-compliant in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Germany, Spain, Italy and Turkey.
Does the POS keep working without internet?
Yes. POS, KDS and kiosk run fully offline for up to 72 hours. Orders, tickets and receipts queue locally in IndexedDB and sync silently to the server when connectivity returns. No sale is lost during an outage.
Which countries does SterkChef support out of the box?
Belgium (FDM / GKS), the Netherlands (Peppol), France (NF525), Germany (TSE), Spain (VeriFactu / TicketBAI), Italy (RT + SDI) and Turkey (ÖKC). Fiscal device, VAT rates, invoice numbering and e-invoicing format switch automatically when you open a new branch in another country.
Which languages does SterkChef ship in?
Seven: Turkish, English, Dutch, French, German, Spanish and Italian. Staff can each use the screen in their own language; date, time, currency and number format follow the locale automatically.
What hardware does SterkChef run on?
Standard restaurant hardware: thermal receipt printers, payment terminals and certified fiscal devices for each supported country. POS, KDS and kiosk ship as native desktop apps via Tauri 2 on Windows, macOS and Linux; courier and waiter run on iOS and Android via React Native; web ordering runs in any modern browser.
Is SterkChef GDPR-compliant?
Yes. CRM data, loyalty profiles and HR records are stored with explicit consent, retention windows are configurable per country, and personal data is never written to client-side logs.
How fast can a restaurant go live?
A single-branch venue is typically live in one business day: menu import, tax classes, fiscal device pairing and staff accounts can all be configured from the backoffice the same morning.
Does SterkChef support multi-branch and franchise operations?
Yes. The platform is multi-tenant and multi-branch by design. Menus, taxes, staff and price lists can be cloned across sites in a few clicks, and the backoffice compares branch KPIs side by side.
