(02)In detail
Own your orders, your customers and your margins
Delivery marketplaces are good at discovery, but expensive as your main ordering channel. In the US and Australia, marketplace commissions on delivery orders commonly sit between 15% and 30%; in India, Zomato and Swiggy typically charge around 18–28% plus 18% GST on the commission. On a busy weekend, that’s a serious share of your profit.
A direct online ordering system lets regular customers order from you with no commission, while you keep their details for repeat business and promotions.
Proven in real restaurants
I’ve built ordering platforms for Moti Mahal Indian Restaurant in Malvern, Victoria and Punjabi Sunrise in Alexandra Hills, Queensland — combining online ordering, menu management, table reservations and sales management in systems designed around how the restaurants actually operate.
Everything a restaurant needs
- A fast, mobile-first menu with categories, photos, modifiers, combos and add-ons.
- Pickup, delivery and dine-in ordering with scheduled orders and trading-hour rules.
- Delivery zones and fees calculated by real driving distance using the Google Distance Matrix API.
- Automatic kitchen printing to Epson ePOS and thermal receipt printers.
- Online payments via Stripe, eWAY, Razorpay and others — or pay on pickup.
- An order dashboard with live status, sales reports and customer history.
- Order updates by SMS, WhatsApp and email.
Built to be used in a busy kitchen
The admin side matters as much as the customer side. Orders arrive with a sound alert, print automatically and are easy to manage on a tablet at the counter. Marking an item sold out takes one tap. The result is an ordering channel your staff will actually use — and one your customers will come back to.

All questionsMarketplaces charge restaurants a commission on every order — commonly 15–30% in the US and Australia, and around 18–28% plus GST in India. Your own ordering system has no per-order commission, you keep the customer relationship, and marketplaces can still be used for discovery.
