Receipts and delivery notes everywhere
The supplier leaves the note on the bar, the receipt ends up in the till and half of it is missing at month end. Without the paperwork, cost control is impossible.
Bars and cafés
Less paperwork behind the bar
Staff, purchasing, inventory, sales, expenses and documents in an app designed for the pace behind the bar.
In a bar or café, management happens between services. Hostelella brings together clock-in, shifts, chat, purchasing, orders, receiving, inventory, sales, expenses and documents so the day does not depend on paperwork and scattered conversations.
On Ella plans you can automate document reading, build schedules and ask about operations using authorised data. The app proposes and you review before confirming sensitive actions.
Plans start at €9.99 + VAT per venue/month and the first trial activates Ella Pro for 7 days with no card. Ella Director remains available as an optional professional service.

What eats a bar's profit
The till doesn't balance
POS sales, cash expenses, tips… balancing the till by hand every night steals hours and still leaves gaps nobody can explain.
Orders from memory
You order “the usual” by phone or WhatsApp, without comparing prices or recording quantities. Every improvised order is margin walking out the door.

Frequently asked questions
Questions from behind the bar
I don't have time to learn new software. Is it complicated?
Onboarding is guided and you can start with one part of operations. Configure the venue, invite the team and activate more functions when you need them.
Is it useful if I only want to control the till and receipts?
Yes. Start with the daily till and automatic receipt reading, for example, then switch on orders, shifts or chat when you need them. Plans start at €9.99 + VAT per venue/month.
How do supplier orders work?
Pick the supplier, set the quantities and the order goes out by email with your team in copy. Everything is recorded, and when the delivery note arrives it's matched against what was ordered.
What does the management service actually do in a bar?
The most valuable thing: buy better. We review your purchases, compare suppliers and negotiate prices; we also organise shifts and bring you the numbers every month. The free assessment tells you how much margin there is to recover.
