Online ordering for restaurants is the technology that gives customers the ability to place a takeout food and/or beverage order through a restaurant's website, app, or third-party app, either on a mobile device or desktop – often with delivery included.
Online ordering systems collect all the necessary information about the order (customer info, items, payment) and allow a restaurant to receive and process these orders – either directly or indirectly– through their POS.
Most direct online ordering systems are also equipped with integrated payments so customers can pay for their online ordering restaurant app right after placing it.
There are three main types of online ordering systems restaurants can use.
1. Your Own Website
2. Third-Party Online Ordering App
3. Third-Party Online Ordering System with POS Integration
