Talabat is MENA's largest online food delivery and grocery marketplace, part of Delivery Hero, headquartered in Kuwait and operating across UAE, Saudi, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, and Egypt. For UAE restaurants, dark stores, and grocery SMBs, Talabat is rarely optional — it's where customers are. The hard part isn't being on Talabat; it's keeping menus, pricing, stock, and commissions reconciled with your books when orders pour in across multiple aggregators at once. Inside HIBR ERP, Talabat is wired in as a first-class marketplace: menus and prices sync from HIBR's product catalogue to Talabat (single source of truth), incoming orders route to the right kitchen station or warehouse pick lane, inventory deducts in real time, and the weekly Talabat settlement statement reconciles automatically — order-by-order — into the right revenue, commission, and delivery fee GLs. This is built for UAE F&B and grocery SMBs running 50 to 5,000 orders a week.
What this integration does
- Menu and price sync. HIBR's product catalogue is the single source of truth. Update a price, a modifier, or a stock-out in HIBR and it pushes to Talabat within seconds. No more "Talabat menu says 35 but POS rings 32" drift.
- Order routing on receipt. Incoming Talabat order routes to the right kitchen station (cold prep, hot line, drinks) or grocery pick-pack lane based on item type. Print to KOT, ticket queue, or pick-list — your call.
- Real-time stock-out push. When a HIBR inventory item hits zero, the matching Talabat menu item auto-hides until restocked. Cuts cancellations and one-star reviews.
- Settlement reconciliation. Talabat's weekly settlement file matches order-by-order in HIBR: gross sale, commission, delivery fee, net remittance — all post to the right GLs. Talabat commission is recoverable input VAT under Federal Decree-Law 8/2017 where the supply is taxable.
- Talabat Mart and tMart support. Grocery dark stores and tMart-fulfilled SKUs work alongside restaurant menus on the same HIBR catalogue — different routing and margins, single ledger.
- Marketplace P&L reporting. Side-by-side view of revenue and commission cost per marketplace (Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem, Noon Food) so you know which is actually profitable for your menu mix.

Use cases
Frequently asked questions
Does the integration support Talabat's tipping and promotions?
Yes. Customer tips post to a "Tips payable" liability GL until you remit them via WPS payroll or cash; Talabat-funded promotions (free delivery, bundle discounts) book to a contra-revenue account so management reporting reflects gross-to-net correctly.
Can I run a Talabat Pro promotion from HIBR?
Promotion creation still happens in Talabat Partner Hub. HIBR mirrors active promotions into your reporting view so you can see, in real time, which Talabat campaigns are driving margin versus eating it.
How does the integration handle order cancellations?
Talabat cancellation events push back into HIBR; the inventory commitment releases; if pre-prepared food was wasted, HIBR offers a one-click "Waste write-off" entry to a food-cost variance account. Talabat compensation for kitchen-side cancellations posts as Other Income.
