Food delivery services such as UberEats, Doordash and Menulog have forever changed and transformed the hospitality industry. We have also seen the world change drastically due to the pandemic, with consumers forming new eating habits and delivery platforms experiencing rapid growth.
Previously only fast food venues, predominantly pizza chains, offered home delivery, now a vast majority of venues with diverse cuisines are onboard with this service. The hospitality industry is evolving along with the technology that is at the forefront of this change, permitting businesses to keep up with consumer demands.
Hospitality businesses are now wondering which online delivery platform they should sign up with in order to reach the most customers? Being on multiple delivery apps has previously been a challenge for restaurants to manage. A staff member is needed to manually accept and re-enter each incoming order as well as making space for all of the individual tablets. If you decide to sign up your restaurant for 4 platforms, you’ll have 4 tablets to make room for on top of your own POS hardware. It just becomes a nightmare! Well it doesn’t have to be… you can replace all the messy tablets and printers with Deliverect’s easy-to-use Delivery Manager App that automatically syncs with your OrderMate Point of Sale.
Deliverect connects all your online ordering platforms to your POS. Enabling your restaurant to meet customer demand with increased food delivery options. Restaurants large and small rely on Deliverect to reduce failures and order mistakes while speeding up order preparation. Delivery platforms that integrate with Delverect include UberEats, Doordash, Menulog & more.
Integrating with Deliverect allows your business to be able to manage all platform sale channels with ease. Deliverect has many benefits for your hospo business including:
No longer do you need to experience delivery FOMO. Don’t guess and randomly choose which delivery app to be on - why not be on all the platforms? The benefit of being across multiple delivery platforms is that it increases your customer reach. With the opportunity to turn hungry customers in your area into regulars who keep coming back. Increasing your audience and getting in front of your competition has never been easier.
No matter the size of your venue, online delivery opens your restaurant up to customers that may not physically fit in the venue itself. You only have a set amount of seats and many customers aren't willing to wait around for a table. With online ordering, customers can order in their own time, wherever they are, opening up your business to new customers and increasing sales. Leave the technical side for Deliverect to manage and your restaurant can focus on what it does best, serving happy customers.
Implementing a strategically designed digital menu results in customers increasing their spending on each order. Strategic menu design and engineering are reported to grow profits by 10-15%. Great food imagery entices customers as we typically think with our stomachs and eat with our eyes. Deliverect makes it easy to update menus across all platforms as well as running promos for increased sales.
A good POS system is one of your greatest assets in the hospitality industry. It enables your entire restaurant operations to run smoothly so your staff can focus on serving customers and delivering the highest quality of customer service.

Eliminating the mess and headaches of what feels like so much manual work. Your customers will be thanking you too as you will now be able to get their orders out the door faster.
