Common questions

Does Estia take a cut of my payments?

No. 0% Estia commission — payments run on your own Viva account with your own keys. You pay only the provider's fees.

How does pay-at-table work?

The guest asks for the bill from their phone and pays via IRIS/card/wallet on the spot (Full plan) — or simply alerts staff and pays as usual.

Can the guest choose when to pay?

Yes — you can let each guest choose: pay online now, or at the end at the table.
