Loop by District
Introduction
Loop by District enables restaurants to offer seamless table payments to their guests by integrating directly with Foodics POS.
This integration allows customers to scan a QR code placed on their table, view their live bill fetched from Foodics, and pay instantly using digital payment methods. Payments sync back to Foodics automatically, helping restaurants reduce staff workload and improve operational efficiency.
District currently powers payment experiences for leading restaurants across India and UAE, enabling fast, secure, hardware-free table payments.
