INTRODUCTION Many high-standard level restaurants or resort and cafes make an application to enhance the quality of restaurant and service of their management to the attraction of people to a restaurant. By usage of such applications and services to captivate the customers or guests and make membership of them. By using such an app customers can give feedback or rating to the service of a restaurant. Nowadays membership can be done on mobile by scanning the QR code at the restaurant and guests can use the benefit of membership. But sometimes QR scanning takes a long time to scan and while scanning there may be an occurrence of mismatch with code and burring. To avoid such problems there is new near-field communication (NFC) technology that is time-saving and affordable to everyone and this technology needs NFC-enabled smartphones [1]. To place an order of food in a restaurant or cafe NFC technology is used because it provides more security and order are maintained properly in the database. Customers have to first download the app and see all menu details and chose one food item and place the order. And while giving bill payments the owner can observe the service and management provided by that customer and take mails and contact numbers of guests so that they will get notification of offers for the increased sale of restaurants or resorts.

Guest can pay their bills using a debit card or pay online by scanning a QR code or also installing a bill at the receptionist [2]. The objective of the proposed work is that today, the wireless transmission technology that smartphones include most often is NFC, which is implemented in handsets enabled with NFC with which users can do the payment, and see notifications of the message, for example. More restaurants give coupons to their customer after dinner when they are going to leave so guests gain benefits and combo offers and
