Why should I have online ordering for my restaurant?


  • Your customers love it. Every day hundreds, maybe thousands of people in your community use their PCs to shop online. Now you can let them place their take out or delivery orders at your shop over the Internet.
  • Getting online ordering is one of the easiest and most cost effective marketing decisions you can make. We handle all the technical details that let your customers place orders over the Internet and send them to you.
  • Research has shown that online order tickets average more than phoned or walk in tickets. A customer who goes online to place an order for a pizza, may end up getting an appetizer and soda as well.
  • Another bonus is the email addresses you get from online customers which you may use for free email marketing promotions. This is like being able to send out coupons, door hangers and flyers for free, any time you want.
  • Online orders arrive at your fax machine without taking up your staff's time. This gives them more opportunity to prepare food or serve live customers.
  • Online orders are for takeout or delivery. They increase the size of your dining room to several square miles and do not use up your tables, chairs, wait staff, bus boy services, plates, flatware or other restaurant dining room or serving resources. The more takeout or delivery orders you can get, the better.

    • Read Pizza Marketing Quarterly's article, "Online Riches", in their Jan-Feb 2008 issue.

    "Highlighted in this issue is the growing online ordering trend. Cut through the confusion, see what online ordering can do for your bottom line and find the resources to set a plan in motion."


    How does it work?

    When you sign up, we will create your online menu. Your customers will be able to place orders from this menu using their Internet web browser. Their order is automatically faxed to you, complete in every detail. The fax tells you the customer's name, their address, how many times they have ordered before, current order items, cost, taxes, options, extras. In short, everything a live staff member would normally take down over the phone, and more.

    Do I need a computer in my shop?

    No. You only need a fax machine. Your online ordering system will fax each order directly to your fax number.

    How much will it cost to get online ordering for my restaurant?

    See our Pricing Schedule for details on pricing for online ordering and email marketing.

    How do I change my online menu?

    We will update your menu and specials on request whenever you want.

    You can also make changes yourself at any time with the easy to use Control Panel, accessible with any web browser. The control panel also lets you manage your customer email list, create electronic coupons and special offers, pay your account and update your order page's appearance and operation.

    Can I accept credit card payments?

    Yes. You can use a business account with Paypal or your merchant account to accept credit card payments securely with your online orders. If you choose to use your merchant account we will have to set up a gateway with Authorize.net, which charges setup, monthly gateway and per-transaction fees. Paypal charges 2.9% plus 30 cents per transaction. These prices are subject to change but are current as of this writing.

    What if I already have a web site?

    Your online order page can be added to your existing web site. Your customers will click on 'Order Online Now' and be taken to your online order pages.

    Can you help me get my own website?

    Yes, we can create and host a basic website for you with a name such as www.yourpizzeria.com.

    If you want something more elaborate, we can recommend professional web developers who will design a custom website for you for a reasonable fee.

    Can I have my own restaurant's logo on my online order pages?

    Yes. Your online order page may contain one graphic logo.

    How do you handle multiple shop locations?

    Each location will have its own online ordering pages. The restaurant name and street address is always displayed at the top of the online ordering page.

    How do I get started?

    Contact us and tell us you want to get started.

    We'll gather information, such as your menu, fax number hours of operation, and other basic details.

    Once we have all the details, we'll create your online ordering page. It could be up and running within a week.
