Monthly Subscription vs One-Time Restaurant POS Software
A one-time POS licence often hides hardware and upgrade fees. SpoonCub Standard is ₹399 a month or ₹3,999 a year.
One-time software feels cheaper until the version stops, the printer dies, or the 'AMC' bill arrives. Subscription is honest about a yearly cost and risky if the vendor vanishes.
One-time
- A large payment up front.
- You may still pay for support and updates.
- Common with traditional POS machines.
SpoonCub subscription
- Standard is ₹399 a month or ₹3,999 a year. It is not a lifetime key.
- A 7-day trial starts after email verification. Pay later from the staff app. No card is taken on this website.
- If you stop paying, access stops. That is the trade.
Which one to run
Pick one-time only if you want a machine you own and a local vendor who will visit. Pick the monthly or annual plan if you want a phone workflow and a known price.

Dhaba, cafe, bakery, or parcel only
The product does not care if you serve thali, espresso, or pav. It cares that staff take table tickets. Small Indian shops with seating are the audience.
