Now in pilot with founding councils. Pre-order your plate, get a QR code, show up and eat. No cash. No guessing. Reduce wasted food. Every weekend, Knights of Columbus councils across America host breakfasts, fish fries, Oktoberfest dinners, and charity meals. They feed thousands of families — and sometimes they're guessing how much food to make. Meal 4DAT ends the guessing and reinforces faith. BEFORE THE EVENT Browse your council's upcoming meals and pre-order. Full breakfast, kids plate, vegetarian option — every pre-planned meal type is listed with the price and how many spots remain. Pay securely with Apple Pay or a card through Stripe. A unique QR code is generated instantly and stored in the app. AT THE DOOR Show your QR code to the volunteer. They scan it. Your meal is confirmed, inventory updates in real time, and you walk straight to your table. No cash. No line. No confusion. DONATE A MEAL With one tap, you can sponsor a plate for someone who can't afford one. Donated meals go into a pool — available for any walk-in to claim with dignity according to council and parish intent. One community taking care of each other one meal at a time. FOR COUNCIL ORGANIZERS Meal 4DAT is a command center for your kitchen crew. See exactly how many of each meal type are committed days before the event. Know when you're close to capacity. Export a prep sheet for your volunteers with one tap. No more over-ordering. No more turning families away. Every dollar you collect goes directly to your council's bank account through Stripe Connect — the moment a plate is purchased. Meal 4DAT takes only a 1.4% platform fee in addition to payment processing fees (ex. 2.9% + .30). No monthly subscription. No setup cost. Just a small fee when orders come in.
