Café & coffee shop POS · Saudi ArabiaCafé and coffee shop POS for Saudi Arabia, with a ZATCA e-invoice on every cup
Specialty coffee, karak, desserts — a café bills fast and bills often. MC-POS Cloud keeps the queue moving and signs every bill for ZATCA.
Quick answer
The MC-POS café POS gives a Saudi coffee shop a tap-to-bill menu with cup sizes as variants and syrups or toppings as add-ons, Fast Billing for the morning rush, a KOT to the barista or the kitchen, loyalty points and a QR menu for the tables. Every bill is a ZATCA Phase 2 simplified invoice, signed on the till with the QR code and reported within 24 hours — even when the Wi-Fi drops. Bills print in Arabic and English with 15% VAT.
A counter without table service can run on the Advanced plan; a café with tables and a kitchen uses the Restaurant Full Suite. The law is in our ZATCA Phase 2 guide.

What a Saudi café needs from its POS
Fast Billing
A big-button menu for the rush: tap the drink, pick the size, take the money. Keyboard billing on the desktop too.
Sizes and add-ons
Small, medium, large as variants; extra shot, oat milk, syrups as add-ons with their own price.
ZATCA on every cup
Every bill is a simplified tax invoice signed with the ZATCA QR and reported within 24 hours — the till does it on its own.
KOT to the barista
Drinks print at the bar and food at the kitchen, each with the customer's note.
Loyalty and codes
Points on every bill, redeemed at the counter; discount codes for a launch or a slow afternoon.
QR menu at the table
Guests scan, order and pay later at the counter; the order reaches the till with a sound alert.
Beans, milk and cups
Stock in kg, litres and pieces, used up as you sell, with low-stock alerts and purchases from suppliers.
Offline
Billing, KOT printing and ZATCA signing keep working without internet; everything syncs later.
One business, every device: the counter, the owner's phone and the back-office computer share the same data — Android, iPhone, Windows, macOS and the web. See all MC-POS Cloud features.
ZATCA for cafés, in short
- Every bill is a simplified tax invoice. Under Phase 2 it is signed on the till, carries the ZATCA QR and is reported within 24 hours.
- The bill is in Arabic. MC-POS prints Arabic and English together.
- Each counter is its own unit. A second till is onboarded with its own OTP.
- VAT is 15%. Set drink prices with VAT included; the bill still shows the VAT.
The waves and dates are in the ZATCA Phase 2 guide.

Can I sell cup sizes and add-ons?
Yes. Sizes are variants with their own prices and add-ons such as an extra shot or oat milk carry their own price; both print on the bill and the KOT.
Does it have a loyalty programme?
