# Welcome to KwikEat

> What KwikEat Desktop, KwikEat Merchant and the Print Connector are, and which ones you need.

KwikEat is made for take-away and delivery restaurants: pizzerias, snack bars, chip shops, Chinese and Indian take-aways, sushi bars. There are three parts. You don't need all of them.

| | What it is | Who needs it |
|---|---|---|
| **KwikEat Desktop** | The till and order system on the PC in the shop: taking orders at the counter and on the phone, the order board, printing receipts, End of day. Also works without internet. | Every shop that takes orders at the counter and on the phone |
| **KwikEat Merchant** | The web portal for your online orders (merchant.kwikeat.com): your web shop, the menu, the settings and who works there | Anyone who wants to receive online orders |
| **KwikEat Print Connector** | A small program that prints the online orders of KwikEat Merchant on a printer in the shop | Only for KwikEat Merchant **without** KwikEat Desktop |

:::tip
Using KwikEat Desktop and a web shop? Link them: online orders then simply arrive on the Desktop order board, and Desktop prints them. You don't need the Print Connector then. See [Linking Desktop to the web shop](https://kwikeat.com/manual/webwinkel-koppelen).

## Moving from AnyOrder

KwikEat Desktop is the successor of AnyOrder. You bring your menu, customers and couriers along in one go: see [Installing and first start](https://kwikeat.com/manual/installeren#moving-from-anyorder).

## How this manual works

- The contents are on the left, with a **search box** at the top. Just search for a word: *deal*, *postcode*, *cash*, *kitchen ticket*.
- The **menu** has a chapter of its own, with lots of examples: [Building your menu](https://kwikeat.com/manual/menu-de-basis).
- Keys look like this: `F2`. KwikEat Desktop works fully with the keyboard, and with touch too.
