GatewayThe foundation

One Gateway
for every product, channel, and order.

The single foundational layer that aligns menus, orders, delivery, and data across your entire digital ecosystem, without replacing your POS.

One control layer between your POS and
every channel above it

Gateway is the operating system that connects the POS, aggregators, ordering systems, and delivery providers into one reliable layer. It doesn't replace your existing infrastructure. It standardises what flows through it.

Built and refined over 12+ years of real-world integrations across multiple POS systems, aggregators, and delivery providers in 7 African markets. The integration patterns, edge cases, and failure scenarios that would be new problems for a first-time build are already solved problems in Gateway's architecture.

Gateway sits in the middle

Synchronising your POS with both your owned channels and third-party aggregators, so every order lands in one place, reconciled and reliable.

Common questions about YUMBI Gateway

Gateway is YUMBI's foundational integration and control layer. It connects your POS system to every ordering channel, from aggregators and first-party apps through to voice, dine-in and delivery, all through a single control point. Menus are managed centrally, orders inject directly into POS, and built-in failover protection ensures trading continues even if the POS goes down.

No. Gateway doesn't replace your existing infrastructure. It standardises what flows through it, connecting the POS you already run to every channel above it.

If the POS drops, orders instantly route to YUMBI's fallback solutions, so your kitchen keeps trading while the POS is offline and orders reconcile once it's back.

Yes. Import POS data once, add photos, and set central PLU rules to protect margins, then push unique menus and pricing to each channel without manual intervention.

Aggregators (built, not yet in live operation), first-party web and app ordering, call centre, dine-in, and delivery providers, including hybrid dispatch to Uber Direct, Skedadel, and Delivery Tribe.
