How it works

Every station, at a glance.Every state, one tap away.

This is Live Ops, the screen your counter runs all night. Four stations, four moments of a real evening, drawn exactly as the console shows them.

  1. 01

    Start with the game

    Pick the player and their usual game is already offered. One tap and the clock runs.

  2. 02

    Play on plan hours

    A member on a plan plays from their hours, with what is left counting down on the card.

  3. 03

    Ended, then invoiced

    When a package runs out the clock stops at the paid end, and the bill waits for one tap.

  4. 04

    Seats held for bookings

    A booked rig turns gold and holds for its player. Walk-ins can't start on it.

Why Respawna

Built for the gaming floor.Nothing bolted on.

Most gaming café management software starts life as a billing tool. Respawna starts at the station, and keeps getting better.

LunaI am your console’s assistant. Say hello once you are in.

  1. 01Respawna IQ

    India’s first gaming café software where the AI does the work

    IQ reads your own books and hands you a ranked list of what to do next, each line quoting the rupee figure it came from. Luna, the console’s assistant, proposes the change and applies it when you approve.

    See Respawna IQarrow_forward
  2. 02Continuous innovation

    Better with every release.

    We never stop building. New features and fixes go out in regular releases, and each one is written up in plain words on What’s new. The console runs in your browser, so there is nothing to download when one ships.

    Read what’s newarrow_forward
  3. 03Pricing

    Clear pricing that grows with you.

    Three plans, priced in rupees on the page, from ₹299 a month. Start with 14 days free, every feature open and no card. Move up a plan when your café grows, and stop whenever you like.

    See the plansarrow_forward
  4. 04Simplicity

    Easy. Simple. Intuitive.

    No complicated set-up and no manual to read. Every screen does one job, in plain words, so your staff pick it up as they go. Sign up, add your stations, photograph your price board and start your first session tonight.

PlayStation and console locking

Lock the TV.Stop free play.

Respawna TV runs on the Android TV or Google TV your console plugs into. It keeps the lock screen up when nobody is paying and opens the game the moment a session starts.

  • sports_esports

    PS5, Xbox, any HDMI console

    The lock lives on the TV, so nothing is installed on the console.

  • qr_code_scanner

    Members sign in on the TV

    They scan the lock screen and start on their plan hours.

  • lock_clock

    Locked when nobody is paying

    Between customers and at time up, the lock screen covers the game.

  • desktop_windows

    Beside your locked PCs

    TVs and Windows PCs on one Live Ops, on the same bills.

Respawna IQ · part of Pro

AI that grows your gaming café

Respawna IQ is the AI built into your gaming café management software. It reads your own sessions, members and sales, then hands you a ranked list of three or four things to do this week to grow revenue: a rate for your quiet hours, the members worth a message, the cost you are not recording yet. Every recommendation quotes the rupee figure it came from, and when the data is too thin it says so instead of padding the list.

  • Every recommendation quotes the figure it came from, in rupees
  • Ranked by effort against return, so the top one is where to start
  • Missing numbers are treated as information · no costs recorded means profit is unknown, not high
  • Written to be read on a phone at the counter between customers

lockIt never tells you what other cafés do

How it is built

One brain in the cloud.A guard on every PC.

The records live in the cloud and every screen reads them live, the agent on each Windows PC holds it to what was paid for, and the counter PC keeps the floor running when the café’s internet drops.

How Respawna is builtarrow_forward

For your players

Inside the member hub.Their café, in their pocket.

Every member gets their own hub, so they stop asking the counter what their balance is, and they can see exactly how close the next reward sits.

01

Points that fill up towards something

Every rupee spent earns loyalty points at the rate you set, and the app shows the bar filling towards the next checkpoint. Hit it and the points convert to wallet credit · which buys their next session, and regulars can see exactly how close they are.

  • trending_upEarned at your rate
  • check_circleCheckpoints, not a black hole
  • redeemConverts to wallet credit
02

A seat booked before they arrive

Members pick a game, a party size and a time from their phone, and the café's system assigns the rig. Two phones cannot take the same seat: the database itself refuses a double booking. A deposit or prepayment is yours to set, and when the group before runs late, staff move the booking to another free rig instead of cancelling it.

  • touch_appGame, party, time
  • lockNo double bookings, ever
  • paymentsPlan hours, deposit or prepay
03

Membership and banked hours

Plans carry hours banked up front, a daily limit, set times and free food or drinks. Members see what is left on the plan and when it renews, without asking anyone at the counter.

  • scheduleHours banked up front
  • hourglass_topA daily limit and set times
  • sellA standing discount
04

Tournaments, entered from the sofa

Events you publish land straight in the app with prize pool, entry fee and how many seats are gone. Players register from their phone instead of the counter taking names on paper.

  • emoji_eventsPrize pool and entry, upfront
  • how_to_regSelf-serve registration
  • groupsSeats filling live
05

Top up once, play all month

A prepaid wallet with every top-up and every session charge listed against it. Nobody queues at the till to settle up, and the balance is the same ledger your books read from.

  • add_cardTop up by UPI
  • receipt_longEvery charge itemised
  • boltNo settling up at the counter

The library

Type a name.The game is in.

Adding a game is a search, not a form. Type a few letters, pick it from the catalogue, and it lands in your library with its platforms and genre filled in. Staff pick it when a session starts, and members browse and book by it in their app.

  • search

    Search, don't type it out

    A few letters find it, so “fc 26” is EA SPORTS FC 26.

  • done_all

    Filled in for you

    Platforms come ticked and the genre comes with the pick.

  • sports_esports

    On Start and in the app

    The counter names the game on Start. Members see what you have.

  • edit

    Not listed? Add it yourself

    Type the name and it is yours, like any other game.

The details

The small things.Done properly.

WhatsApp marketing

WhatsApp that actually sends.

Built on click-to-chat, not the WhatsApp Business API · no application to approve, no per-message fee, no template review. Pick a segment, write once, and press send from your own number.

  • Ready-made segments
  • Filled in per person
  • A cooldown
  • Invoices too

Only message people who gave you their number expecting to hear from you. WhatsApp bans numbers reported for unsolicited marketing, and that would take your invoice delivery down with it · so the tool enforces a cooldown and an opt-in flag.

The Analytics overview screen shown in dark and light themes, split by a draggable divider: takings, money in and out, and the trend against the previous window.

The station management is intuitive, the accounting and daily financial reporting are rock-solid, and the customer experience is fast and seamless. It eliminates checkout friction and saves our staff hours of admin work each week. Highly recommended for any gaming lounge or venue owner."

A really well-designed and game changing platform for gaming cafés. It offers a clean interface and useful features for managing bookings, memberships, and gaming stations. It’s a solid solution for cafés looking to keep their operations organized. Highly recommend Respawna!!!

Jasper Ratos

We've been using Respawna at our gaming café in Delhi, and it's been one of the best decisions for the business. The pricing system is really well thought out, and I like that sessions continue at the same rate even if prices change later. The transaction history is also very clear, so it's easy to keep track of everything without confusion.

Rahul SinghDelhi

We switched to Respawna a few months ago, and I honestly wish we'd done it sooner. It's easy for both the staff and customers, and training new employees barely takes any time. Everything just feels straightforward.

Ellie

As a gaming café’s co-founder & operations analyst , I can honestly say Respawna has made running our business so much easier. The timer and billing system is accurate, easy to use, and handles multiple gaming sessions without any hassle. I also love that we can add food and beverage orders directly to the customer’s bill. The analytics are really helpful, giving us clear daily, weekly, and monthly reports, and the income and expense tracking makes it easy to monitor actual profits. The membership and event features are also great for managing gamer profiles and organizing tournaments. Overall, Respawna is much more than just billing software—it’s a complete management solution for gaming cafés. It has saved us time, simplified our operations, and I highly recommend it to any gaming café owner.

Gayathri SivakumarCo-founder & operations analyst

As a gaming café owner in Kolkata, Respawna has completely transformed the way I manage my business. The automation and transparency have honestly reduced so many day-to-day operational hassles, and everything from live sessions and pricing to billing and memberships is so much easier to manage now. I spend less time dealing with admin and more time focusing on my customers. If you're running a gaming café or planning to open one, I'd genuinely recommend Respawna. It's made managing my café a lot simpler.
