Foodics or TajerGo, in short

Inventory and the khata ledger start on the free plan, and Starter with kitchen display is AED 99 per branch a month. The cheapest Foodics bundle that lists inventory as included, Basic, is AED 375 a month billed annually. Foodics remains a strong choice when its app marketplace or live aggregator connections carry your service.

Why switch

Why UAE operators switch from Foodics to TajerGo

One checkable fact per card, with the page that shows it working.

  • Inventory and khata from AED 0

    Foodics lists inventory as an optional add-on on its AED 199 Starter bundle and includes it from Basic at AED 375. TajerGo includes inventory basics and the khata ledger on the free plan.

    Restaurant inventory
  • Supplier bills flow into recipe cost

    A supplier bill with a price rise is prepared for your review, then the new cost reaches the recipe and the margin. The Foodics UAE pricing page does not list a supplier bill workflow.

    Recipe costing
  • Published per-branch pricing

    TajerGo Starter is AED 99 a month or AED 990 a year per branch, and you can stay monthly. Every Foodics UAE bundle is billed annually, from AED 199 a month.

Where TajerGo and Foodics part ways

Foodics starts from the till and grows by bundle and marketplace app, with inventory joining at Basic. TajerGo starts from the supplier bill: its lines are prepared for a person to approve, the cost reaches the recipe, and the owner report shows the margin. If your pain is the till, the two look alike; if it is the stock room, they do not.

What the Foodics price page settles

All three UAE bundles are billed annually, and the tier boundary is the part the headline hides. At Starter, AED 199 a month, inventory and table management are optional add-ons; they are included from Basic, AED 375 a month. Loyalty, API access, delivery aggregators and Foodics BI are included only on Advanced, AED 556 a month, or bought as add-ons. Kitchen display and accounting apps are not listed on the UAE pricing page. Ask for the bundle that carries your modules, per branch, with tax, hardware and add-ons as separate lines.

Run the same test on both

  1. Take a supplier price increase and follow it through recipe cost and the owner report, then settle a customer credit balance.
  2. Price the plan that supports those tasks at every active branch.
  3. If a Foodics Marketplace app is essential to your service, list it and confirm a supported replacement before you migrate.

Where Foodics fits

Who Foodics suits

  • Groups that want a broad regional ecosystem and the Foodics Marketplace of connected apps.
  • Operators who need live delivery aggregator connections now, included on the Advanced bundle.
  • Teams that budget a year at a time: every Foodics UAE bundle is billed annually.

Who TajerGo suits

  • Owners whose money leaks in the stock room and on supplier bills, not at the till.
  • Restaurants that want inventory and a khata credit ledger on the free plan.
  • Buyers who want a monthly per-branch plan, with annual billing as a choice.

When staying with Foodics makes sense

Stay with Foodics if a marketplace app is load-bearing for your service, if you need live aggregator connections this quarter, or if your annual term still has months to run. Plan the move for the renewal date so you never pay twice.
