In short

Yes, Plathea is a fiscal cash register — without a telematic recorder

Plathea issues the commercial document (the electronic receipt) and invoices through a software solution compliant with art. 24 of Legislative Decree 1/2024, operational from 1 January 2026: it stores and transmits the takings to the Italian Revenue Agency with no telematic recorder and no fiscal printer. All you need is a connected device — tablet, smartphone or computer.

The customer scans the QR code on the bill and pays from their own phone, without waiting; and you can sell online straight from your venue. Payments are handled by Stripe, paid out to your account.

The cash register handles the fiscal side; the payment stays on your bank POS. No obligation to change terminal, consistent with the 2026 POS integration.
Why Plathea

No hardware, everything in a single flow

Traditional cloud cash registers stay tied to a fiscal printer or a telematic recorder: hundreds of euros between device, installation and periodic inspection. Not Plathea — it is pure software, the cash register is already inside the app.

And above all it is a single flow: receipt, food cost, inventory, bookings, CRM and AI all talk to each other. Not a cash register on one side and the platform on the other, but one system, with public, stated pricing and no quote.

Transparency

What a cash register without hardware (really) means

Since 2020 the fiscal receipt is called the commercial document: the fiscal value lies in the electronic transmission, not in the paper. Plathea uses a certified software solution (art. 24 of Legislative Decree 1/2024), not the free manual procedure of the Italian Revenue Agency: the document is issued automatically from the bill, without typing the data by hand. If the customer wants a paper copy, an ordinary printer is enough, not a fiscal recorder.

Plathea's digital fiscal cash register is available and live: you activate it today as an add-on on any paid plan, in three sizes (S, M, L), and it is included in the Business plan (size L). Issuing never stops: it is a fiscal obligation, the system always issues.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the digital cash register

Does Plathea need a telematic recorder?

No. Plathea issues the commercial document and transmits the takings to the Italian Revenue Agency through a software solution compliant with art. 24 of Legislative Decree 1/2024. No telematic recorder or fiscal printer is needed: a connected device is enough.

What is the difference between receipt, commercial document and electronic receipt?

Since 2020 the receipt and the fiscal voucher have been replaced by the commercial document. "Electronic receipt" is the common way of referring to the electronic storage and transmission of the takings. Plathea issues the commercial document in electronic form.

Is Plathea's cash register compliant with the 2026 rules?

Yes. It is based on the software solution set out in art. 24 of Legislative Decree 1/2024 and in the Italian Revenue Agency measure of 7 March 2025, operational from 1 January 2026, and it manages the integration with payment instruments required from 2026.

Can I keep my bank POS?

Yes. Plathea handles the fiscal side (receipt and invoice); the payment stays on your POS. You do not have to change terminal or bank.

How much does Plathea's cash register cost?

It is an add-on in three sizes: S €30, M €60, L €100 per month (excluding VAT), with receipt and invoice volumes included. Size L is included in the Business plan. Unit prices are stated in the clear; the full price list is on the Pricing page.

What happens if I exceed the included receipts?

Issuing never stops. Within 5% of the size you go over for free; beyond that, you draw from prepaid packages with no expiry or pay the overage at a stated price — and in any case never more than the next size up would cost.

Does Plathea handle table invoices and meal vouchers?

Yes. You can issue the electronic invoice from the bill for businesses and individuals and manage meal vouchers and mixed payments (cash, electronic, vouchers) on the same document.

Can the customer pay by themselves at the table?

Yes. The bill carries a QR code: the customer scans it and pays from their own phone, without waiting for the bill or for the card terminal. You can also sell online. Payments are handled by Stripe, which pays out to the restaurant's account; for fees and payout times, Stripe's own pricing applies. The table QR carries no Plathea commission; on online sales and on takeaway and delivery orders Plathea keeps 3% (minimum €0.50, VAT excluded).

When is the cash register available?

It is available now: you activate it as an add-on on any paid plan, and it is already included in the Business plan. You use the rest of the platform in the same way. The till needs a plan: on the free profile it cannot be bought or used.
