How Empire Lodge keeps control of bar sales and cash
Empire Lodge AirBNB Residential runs rooms, a restaurant, a pool and two bars — the Garden Bar and the VIP Bar. With money moving through several tills every day, the owner needed to know that every drink sold was paid for.
The problem
In busy bars, cash and stock can go missing quietly: drinks served without a bill, sales reversed after payment, and cash totals no one can check against stock.
What TARVINA changed
Every drink is on a bill
Waiters send orders to the cashier, who routes drinks to the bar. Nothing is poured without a recorded order.
Measured by the shot
Bottles are tracked as 25 shots, so stock counts show exactly what should be in the bar.
No quiet changes
Refunds and reprints need a second manager's approval, and every change is kept in the audit history.
Cash counted every shift
Each till's cash-up compares expected and counted money, including entry tickets sold at the gate.
Staff clock in first
Staff must clock in with their PIN before they can sell, so every sale has a name and a shift.
Daily reports
The owner sees bar, front desk and kitchen totals for each trading day, by till and staff member.
