TL;DR
MMENU is a strong front-of-house QR ordering layer that can sit on top of an existing POS. LOOP is the full stack: POS, KDS, inventory, loyalty, AI, plus its own QR ordering — so there's no second vendor to reconcile.
LOOP vs MMENU — QR Ordering vs Full F&B Platform
Last updated:
PEKO ecosystem
LOOP runs the venue. PEKO brings the customer back. Two products, one company.
PEKO — the AI customer-retention platform (heypeko.com) from the same company as LOOP. PEKO handles retention; LOOP handles operations.
| LOOP — operations | PEKO — retention |
|---|---|
| Inventory & recipes | Churn prediction |
| Shift & staff management | Automated win-back |
| Table layout | Member portal |
| Kitchen display (KDS) | Loyalty tiers |
| E-invoice (TT78) | Receipt OCR enrolment |
| Aggregator queue (GrabFood / ShopeeFood / Be) |
LOOP and PEKO each work on their own. Run both and the data syncs into one single AI brain, so nothing is entered twice. PEKO is not a POS and does not replace one — it also runs alongside any other POS.
Choose LOOP if
- ✓You run 2+ outlets and want one operator who can speak commands instead of clicking.
- ✓You want AI demand forecasting per daypart (target MAPE 14–22%), not gut-feel.
- ✓You're on SEA payment rails (VietQR, PromptPay, QRIS, DuitNow, PayNow, QR Ph).
- ✓You're already on PEKO loyalty (or planning to) — 50% lifetime LOOP discount.
Choose MMENU if
You need MMENU-specific capabilities and don't need AI operations.
| Feature | LOOP | MMENU |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Full POS + KDS + inventory + loyalty + AI | QR ordering & digital menu layer |
| QR self-ordering | Native, deducts inventory automatically | Core strength |
| Kitchen routing (KDS) | Native, multi-station | Depends on connected POS |
| Inventory & food cost | Recipe-level, real-time | Not in scope |
| Vendors to manage | One | MMENU + your POS + your inventory tool |
Bottom line
Already have a POS you like and just need QR ordering: MMENU is a clean overlay. Replatforming or starting fresh: LOOP is one less vendor, one less integration to maintain.
Why teams pick LOOP
- One contract, one support line, one data model.
- QR orders deduct ingredients in the same moment the kitchen receives them.
- No reconciliation between an ordering layer and a POS at month-end.
Frequently asked
- Can I keep my MMENU QR codes if I move to LOOP?
- The physical QR stickers and table tents can stay — LOOP regenerates the destination URLs so the printed codes keep working, and customers see LOOP's ordering experience instead.
- Does LOOP include loyalty?
- LOOP handles operations. For AI-driven customer retention, PEKO is the sibling product from the same company — it runs alongside LOOP or alongside any other POS. Together they cover operations and retention.
- Can PEKO handle inventory and staff scheduling?
- No — PEKO is the retention layer. LOOP covers inventory, recipes, shifts, table management and kitchen display in the same ecosystem.
