What a Lahore restaurant actually needs from a POS

Running a restaurant in Lahore puts specific pressure on billing. These are the four things we hear about most, and how MezbanPOS handles each.

1. Billing that survives internet outages

Fibre cuts, router resets and load-shedding happen most at the worst time: Friday night, a full hall on MM Alam Road, or the iftar rush. A purely cloud POS stops taking orders the moment the connection goes. The MezbanPOS Pro desktop app runs on your restaurant's local Wi-Fi, so the counter, the kitchen display and the day's reports keep working with no internet. When the connection comes back, everything syncs to the web dashboard so you can check sales from home.

Tip: put the POS computer and your Wi-Fi router on a UPS, so the counter stays up through load-shedding too.

2. Punjab sales tax done correctly on every bill

Restaurants in Lahore charge Punjab sales tax on services, collected by the Punjab Revenue Authority (PRA), not FBR. Since 1 July 2026 the rate is 16% when a customer pays cash and 8% when they pay by card or a digital wallet. That means the tax on a bill depends on how it is paid, which is easy to get wrong by hand at a busy counter.

PRA also expects computerised invoices that show your registered business name, address and PNTN, a clear breakdown of the pre-tax amount and the tax, and an invoice number customers can verify.

MezbanPOS applies the correct PRA rate automatically based on payment method and submits invoices to PRA in real time.

If you are also registered with FBR, FBR invoice integration is available as a paid add-on.

Tax rules change. Confirm your own obligations with PRA or your tax adviser; this page explains how the software helps, not what you owe.

3. One system for dine-in, takeaway and delivery

Most Lahore restaurants run all three from one counter. MezbanPOS handles dine-in with table assignment, takeaway and delivery from the same screen, with split bills and cash or card payments. Orders go straight to the kitchen display with a sound alert, so the tandoor and the karahi station see new orders without a runner carrying slips.

4. Delivery without the commission

If a large share of your orders comes through delivery apps, the commission adds up every month. The MezbanPOS Online Ordering add-on gives you your own ordering page for Rs 12,000 a month flat, with zero per-order commission. Orders arrive directly in the POS and kitchen display. See online ordering.

MezbanPOS works the same way anywhere in the city, whether you run a cafe in Gulberg or DHA, a family restaurant in Johar Town or Model Town, a food-street stall near the Walled City, or a takeaway in Bahria Town, Wapda Town or Township.

MezbanPOS Pro is Rs 5,000 per month for one restaurant, with no per-terminal fee and no per-transaction fee. FBR integration is a paid add-on. Every new account starts with a 30-day free web trial and no credit card is needed.

Will billing stop when the internet goes down?

Does my Lahore restaurant need a PRA-integrated POS?

Restaurants in Punjab collect Punjab sales tax on services for the Punjab Revenue Authority (PRA): 16% on cash bills and 8% on card or digital payments since 1 July 2026. PRA expects computerised invoices with your PNTN, a tax breakdown and a verifiable invoice number. MezbanPOS applies the right PRA rate by payment method and submits invoices to PRA in real time. Check your own obligations with PRA or your tax adviser.

Can I run more than one counter or a kitchen screen?

Yes. One MezbanPOS server on your local network supports unlimited POS counters and kitchen display screens, with no extra fee per device.

Yes. The MezbanPOS Online Ordering add-on is Rs 12,000 per month flat with zero per-order commission. Orders arrive straight in the POS and kitchen display.
