Most POS systems make you work around them. Luqma works the way your restaurant does.

Luqma POS is restaurant management software built in Dubai for UAE cafés, restaurants and food businesses. Unlike generic international POS products, Luqma is built around UAE operations: local VAT, Arabic and English, support that answers in hours.

Your menu, always in control.

Full menu management with categories, modifiers, photos and pricing. One source of truth across your cashier, kitchen and reports. No spreadsheets, no workarounds.

Every device, one system.

Cashier, server tablet and KDS share one source of truth. Orders flow through in real time. No re-keying, no manual hand-offs, no lost tickets.

The numbers tell the truth.

Menu performance, item-level margins, sales by brand and channel. The reports show what's working, and what's quietly losing money.

Three apps. One source of truth.

Built for UAE restaurants of all sizes. Every screen designed for the people actually using it: cashiers, servers, cooks, managers.

For the cashier

Order in seconds. Every order type in one place.

  • Single, even, and itemized-by-guest bill splits
  • Hold queue, refire, modifier-level pricing

We were running three brands out of one kitchen with two POS systems and a spreadsheet. Luqma replaced all of it. Switching brands at the cashier is a one-tap thing now.

Menu engineering finally tells me which items earn their place. Two items we thought were stars turned out to be quietly losing money. We fixed them in week one.

Everything you want to know before you call.

What is the best POS system in UAE for restaurants?

Luqma is built specifically for UAE restaurants, cloud kitchens and multi-brand F&B operators. Unlike generic international POS products, Luqma handles UAE 5% VAT natively, supports Arabic and English, is hosted inside the UAE, and is supported by a Dubai-based team who answer in hours, not days.

Does Luqma POS work in Dubai?

Yes. Dubai is our home base. We support restaurants, cloud kitchens and cafés across Marina, JBR, Downtown, DIFC, Deira, Silicon Oasis, Business Bay and all Dubai districts. Our office is at D-Tech, Dubai Silicon Oasis and on-site training is available in Dubai.

Does Luqma POS work in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and other emirates?

Yes. Luqma is 100% cloud-based so it works in all 7 UAE emirates: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain. Onboarding is remote and takes less than a day. You don't need an on-site engineer; our Dubai team handles everything over a call.

How much does a POS system cost in UAE?

Luqma starts at AED 149 per branch per month (Basic), which includes cashier app, server tablet, kitchen display system, digital menu and reporting. The Professional plan is AED 299/mo and adds inventory, QR table ordering and split bills. Enterprise pricing is custom for chains with 5+ branches. All prices exclude 5% UAE VAT. No hidden fees.

Is Luqma POS good for cloud kitchens in UAE?

Luqma was purpose-built for cloud kitchens. One screen runs unlimited brands. Each brand keeps its own menu, prices, hours and reports. Orders from every brand route to the right kitchen station automatically. Operators running 2, 5 or 10 brands from one kitchen use Luqma as their single source of truth.

Does Luqma integrate with Talabat, Deliveroo and Careem in UAE?

Aggregator integrations with Talabat, Careem, Noon Food, Deliveroo and Keeta are available on request for Enterprise customers. They are also rolling out as standard add-ons. Contact our team to discuss your aggregator needs.

Does Luqma POS support UAE VAT?

Yes. Luqma POS supports UAE 5% VAT calculations. VAT is applied automatically on every transaction, shown separately on receipts, and itemised in Z-reports and daily summaries.

How long does it take to set up a POS system in UAE with Luqma?

Most operators go live within 1 day. Your menu is imported, staff are trained, and the kitchen display is live, all in a single onboarding session over call or on-site (Dubai only). The system is cloud-based so there is no lengthy hardware installation or IT setup.

What is the best POS system for a small café in the UAE?

For a small café in the UAE, look for a POS that offers fast billing, item customisations, UAE 5% VAT support, receipt printing, payment tracking, sales reports and basic inventory management. A simple cloud-based system such as Luqma covers all of these needs without the complexity of an enterprise POS, and is built and supported in Dubai, so VAT calculations and local onboarding are handled from day one.

What should I look for in a restaurant POS system in the UAE?

A restaurant POS in the UAE should support fast order taking, 5% VAT, receipt printing, payment tracking, sales reporting and, depending on the operation, inventory and kitchen management. Luqma combines these restaurant operations in a cloud-based POS designed for UAE cafés, restaurants and food businesses.

Does Luqma POS have a reservation system for restaurants in UAE?

Yes. Luqma's Reservations feature is included in the Professional plan (AED 299/mo). It lets you manage table bookings with guest details, time-slot control and automatic confirmation, so you never double-book a table or lose a walk-in. All reservation data links directly to your POS, so the floor is always in sync with the kitchen.

How does restaurant table reservation management work with Luqma POS?

Luqma's reservation module lets front-of-house staff create, view and edit bookings from the same device they use for orders. Each reservation captures guest name, party size and time slot. The system blocks double-bookings automatically and sends confirmation to guests. When the party arrives, the booking converts to an open table in one tap. No re-entering order details.
