A sticker that opens a PDF is not a restaurant system. This page shows the difference.
Printed menus cannot change prices without a reprint. Free QR tools usually open a PDF. MenuScan is a live QR menu with GST billing, POS, kitchen tickets, and WhatsApp alerts from ₹250/month.

Fine for a one-page cafe list. Painful the moment oil prices, GST, or a festival special changes.
Useful for a static PDF. They do not take orders, split tables, or talk to the kitchen.
A live menu plus the floor tools Indian restaurants actually run on: GST, POS, KOT, WhatsApp.
Demo first if you want. Trial if you are ready.
