How it works

From policy to plate in five steps

You configure the benefit once. Everything else runs on the Chakula ecosystem your employees, merchants and riders already use.

1

Set your lunch policy

Choose days, ordering & delivery windows and a daily allowance per team. Turn carry-forward and employee top-ups on or off.

2

Employees open Chakula

Your people switch to their Teams profile in the app they already use: no new logins, no vouchers to manage.

3

Jema recommends lunch

Meals are personalized to each person's nutrition goals, allergies and past orders, from nearby partner eateries.

4

Business is charged

Spend is split automatically. You cover up to the allowance; employees only pay the difference if they go over.

5

Riders deliver to the office

Orders arrive within your delivery window using the same Chakula dispatch that powers thousands of daily deliveries.

Everything in one workspace

Control for you. Care for your team.

Not a meal-voucher system, but an employee nutrition & lunch benefits platform, with the admin depth a growing company needs.

Budgets & allowances

Daily per-employee allowances, department caps and spend rules that split every order between business and employee, automatically.

Personalized nutrition

Jema tailors every recommendation to health goals, allergies and dietary preferences. Wellness benefits people actually use.

Multi-office support

Add every location with its own delivery radius and default times. Employees are matched to the right office and eateries nearby.

Reporting that finance loves

Monthly & daily spend, department utilization, popular meals and allowance usage, exportable to PDF, CSV or Excel in a click.

Billing & invoices

Saved cards via Paystack today, corporate invoicing next. Automatic monthly statements and receipts, ready for your books.

Roles & controls

Owner, HR and Finance roles with workspace-level isolation, server-side authorization and an audit log of every admin action.

One app, two profiles

Employees just switch to Teams

No new app to install. In the Chakula app they already use, your people tap once to switch profiles, like changing workspaces in Slack or profiles in Chrome. Watch how it works:

  • Payment source switches to the company
  • Delivery defaults to their office
  • Meal eligibility & spending limits apply
  • Their personal orders stay completely separate
Switching an order from a personal profile to the Teams profile in the Chakula app
FAQ

Questions, answered

No. Employees keep using the Chakula consumer app they already have. They simply switch from their Personal profile to your company's Teams profile, and payment source, delivery location and spending limits change automatically.
