LunchPlanner Microsoft Teams App

Canteen Management – POS (SumUp) • Nearby Eats

LunchPlanner is a Microsoft Teams app for managing multiple canteens and coordinating team lunches. Because it integrates with Teams, the entire user base is automatically included. SumUp POS integration digitizes payment flows for preorders and checkouts. As an alternative to the canteen, the Nearby Restaurant Search lets teams quickly find options and run votes to decide where to eat.
