Frequently Asked Questions
Is My Restaurant Strategist better than Slurp for new restaurant owners in Malaysia?
For the planning and pre-opening phase, yes. My Restaurant Strategist provides AI business plan generation, MYR-based startup cost calculators, SSM/MOH/Halal licensing guidance, and financial projections that Slurp does not offer. Slurp is excellent once your restaurant is open and you need a POS system with SST compliance and e-invoicing.
Can I use My Restaurant Strategist and Slurp together?
Absolutely — that is the recommended approach for Malaysian F&B owners. Use My Restaurant Strategist during your planning phase (6–18 months before opening) for business planning, location analysis, and financial projections. Then add Slurp for POS, SST compliance, and daily operations when you start serving customers.
How much does Slurp cost compared to My Restaurant Strategist?
Slurp offers packages starting from RM150/month for small cafes, with complete packages around RM3,990 or more for larger restaurants. Hardware is separate. My Restaurant Strategist costs US$19–79/month (approximately RM85–350) with no hardware requirements, making it significantly more affordable during your pre-revenue startup phase.
Does Slurp help with writing a business plan or getting a halal certificate?
No. Slurp focuses on POS operations — processing transactions, SST compliance, e-invoicing, and managing orders. It does not offer business plan generation, startup cost estimation, halal certification guidance, or pre-opening checklists. My Restaurant Strategist covers all of these with Malaysia-specific content including SSM registration, MOH licensing, and local funding sources like TEKUN and Amanah Ikhtiar.
