Challenges in your venue
Take orders on your own website, even without a dining room.
If you cook only to order, you need clear deadlines and a list of dishes to make. WP InPlate lets you take orders on your website, even if your business has no dining room for guests.
Orders through messaging apps
Orders collected in messages and over the phone are harder to organize, and it’s easier to miss something.
You don’t know how much to cook
When customers order until the last minute, it’s harder to plan shopping and meal prep.
Delivery all over town
Delivering a small order to the other side of town can turn out not to pay off.
Commission on a low margin
With a small margin, a platform commission of e.g. 20% can eat up a large part of your profit.
