The kitchen display your tablets were waiting for
The Ordare KDS app is a native kitchen display for iPad and Android tablets. Every order lands the moment it's placed and moves from received to ready with a tap – no printer, no paper, no POS hardware.
It's $129/year for Ordare customers. Sign in with your Ordare account, mount a tablet in the kitchen, and you're live in minutes.
Available on the App Store and Google Play
How it works
Every order lands on one board

What it does
Everything the line needs to keep tickets moving – and nothing it doesn't.
Real-time tickets
Every order lands on the board the instant a guest places it.
Tap to advance
Move each ticket from received to in-process to ready with a single tap.
Live order timers
See how long each order has been working, so the oldest never slips.
Full order detail
Quantity, size, and every modifier – spelled out, with the guest’s name and order number.
Routed to each station
Drinks to the bar, food to the kitchen, and more – decide which products land on each station’s board, right inside Ordare.
New-order chime
An audible alert on every new order, even after the tablet has sat idle.
Cancellations flagged
If a guest cancels, the board alerts your line right away – so it never gets made.
Ready for multiple locations
Running more than one shop? Each location can run as many boards as it needs, each showing only that location’s orders.
Runs on any tablet
Any iPad or Android tablet you already own – nothing to buy from us.
Tune it to your kitchen
Every screen sets up right from the tablet – no trip back to a computer. Pair it to a location and dial it in for that station.
- Dark or light, to match your space
- A new-order chime you can turn on or off – and test
- Choose exactly which categories each screen shows
Flat-rate pricing
One price. Every screen. Every location.
