Table reservations and pickup orders for restaurants and cafés

This card is for restaurants, cafés and dessert shops that want reservations, guests and pre-orders in one place with WhatsApp. Govia runs tables, groups, the waitlist, pickup orders and loyalty, issues the simplified tax invoice, and works alongside your point-of-sale if you already rely on one.

Pick your business

  • Restaurant

    Guests book from your link and confirm with a WhatsApp code, the system picks the smallest table that fits or joins two for a group, deposits are paid by link, and the host sees every guest's allergies.

  • Café & Desserts

    Each order carries its priced options and the day's call number, pickup orders arrive from your public menu with their invoice, every coffee stamps the customer's card, and pre-orders are secured with a deposit.

Why Govia

  • Bookings confirm themselves

    Guests book from your page, confirm with a WhatsApp code and get a reminder the day before, so fewer tables sit empty.

  • Group deposits before arrival

    Group bookings of eight or more ask a per-guest deposit, paid by link before the booking is confirmed.

  • Know your guest

    Allergies, VIP status and past no-shows show on the table before they sit down.

  • One platform for the business

    Reservations, occasions, pre-orders, invoices, team and reports in one Arabic-first system.

  • Arabic first, in your trade’s words

    The whole system runs in Arabic, right to left, and names things the way your business does: client, patient, member or tenant.

  • Automatic WhatsApp messages

    Booking confirmations, appointment reminders and verification codes reach your customers on WhatsApp without anyone typing them.

  • Local payments

    Payment links with mada, Apple Pay and cards, plus instalments with Tabby and Tamara through Tap.

  • Tax invoices with QR

    ZATCA-ready tax invoices with QR (generation phase), issued with every payment.

  • On Riyadh time

    Appointments, reports and reminders run on Riyadh time and the Saudi working week, wherever the system is opened.

  • An assistant that answers and prepares

    Ask it about your numbers and screens and it answers, then prepares the action for you to approve with one tap.

Questions before you start

Does it replace my POS?

Govia takes table and pre-orders, issues the invoice and closes the till, but it does not run detailed kitchen inventory or aggregate delivery apps. If you rely on a POS, Govia covers reservations, groups and guests alongside it.

Does it need installing?

No. It runs in the browser on a tablet, phone or computer with no special hardware.

Does it send WhatsApp reminders?

Yes. Booking confirmation, a reminder the day before and a message when a booking changes or is cancelled, automatically.

Can guests pay with mada and Apple Pay?

Yes. With the payment gateway on, guests pay a deposit or invoice from its link by mada, Apple Pay or card.

Are the invoices ZATCA compliant?

Govia issues ZATCA-ready simplified tax invoices with a QR code (generation phase).
