Quick answers

What beta users usually ask.

Do guests need a BaristaUp account?

No. Guests use the private QR link from the host and can place an order without signing in.

Can guests see live updates?

Yes. After checkout, the guest status page shows the pickup number, queue position, and ready state.

What happens when the bar closes?

New orders stop, but existing orders stay visible so the barista can finish or cancel them deliberately.

Is BaristaUp built for cafes?

No. BaristaUp is a lightweight tool for personal home-coffee sessions with friends.
