The UK entered full lockdown and restaurants are only surviving thanks to takeout orders.
This surfaced a huge problem with the current state of affairs for F&B businesses.
The same platforms that help restaurants gain extra visibility and manage their delivery orders also extort a massive 20-30% fee on their orders.
We find this outrageous: hitting businesses hard with a 1/3 of revenue loss at a time where deliveries are the only revenue stream?
We spent the last two weeks (this time it was more accurate) adapting our table-ordering software for deliveries and released it to all of our customers.
Sure, they'll have to manage marketing and deliveries themselves, but we're quite sure that the math will work out for them in the end.
We distributed a few packs of "Next time place your order using this QR code" cards for free. Restaurants will place the card in their Deliveroo/UberEats boxes. Win-win!
