For restaurants to stay open during the pandemic, to-go and delivery orders had to become the normal and main source of revenue. With many customers searching for delivery and pickup service online, getting an online ordering system for your restaurant is more important than ever.
There are many options for online ordering systems that businesses can choose, but each comes with pros and cons. The two categories are to use an existing platform like Grubhub, or to build your own custom online ordering system with companies like PayProTec West Coast.
Using a third-party platform will allow more people to find your restaurant that may not have heard of you before. However, you don’t keep 100% of the profits that you make, since some platforms have a per transaction fee, or a monthly fee for restaurants to join the platform. Sometimes you pay both! With PayProTec West Coast, we don’t charge these kinds of fees for our online ordering service, period.
Also, you have a lot of competition on big-name online ordering platforms. As a local burger joint, do you really want to be competing with chain restaurants like McDonald’s for your customers?
Getting a custom online ordering system built for you by PayProTec West Coast will ensure that your business’s most loyal customers can order from a platform that is branded to align with your business and your marketing image.
