What you get

  • Keep 100% of every order. EatFuti takes no commission. On a $30 order a delivery app can keep $4.50 to $9. On your own page it is $0.
  • Your customers stay yours. Every guest’s name and number is saved for you, so you can invite them back with a text on a slow day.
  • Order ahead, pickup or delivery. Guests can schedule an order, even while you are closed. Delivery runs through partners such as DoorDash and Uber Eats.
  • Works with your POS. Clover and Square connect fully. Toast restaurants get an order tablet.

What “no commission” means

Delivery apps usually keep 15% to 30% of every order. With EatFuti the order comes through your own page, and EatFuti keeps nothing from it. You pay one flat monthly price, and card processing is 2.9% + 30¢ per order through Stripe.

Many restaurants keep a delivery app for delivery and move pickup guests to their own page. That alone keeps the full price on a large share of orders.

Where guests order

On your website, from the Order button on your Google listing, from your social media links, and from a QR code at the counter. All of them lead to the same order page with your menu and your prices.

An online ordering system made for small restaurants

Most ordering systems are built for chains, with a long setup and a contract. EatFuti is built for the family-owned place with one or two locations: we set up the menu for you, connect it to the POS you already have, and it is live in 48 to 72 hours. Menu changes and hours updates are always free.

Big orders and orders ahead

Guests can schedule an order for a set day and time, even while you are closed. That works for office lunches, team meetings and family parties, and the order is waiting in your kitchen at the right time. Your website also has a catering section with your phone number for bigger events.

Online ordering cost: a simple example

Say you get 300 pickup orders a month at $30 each, $9,000 in sales. If a delivery app keeps 20%, that is $1,800 a month. On your own EatFuti page there is no commission: $99 a month for Start, plus card processing of 2.9% + 30¢ per order, about $351 on those 300 orders. About $450 instead of $1,800, after the one-time $249 setup.

This is an example. Use your own order count and average order to do the math, and run the free check to see where your Order button sends guests today.

Do my customers need to download an app?

Which POS systems work with it?

Can I take online orders while I am closed?

Can I use it for catering orders?

Guests can schedule bigger orders ahead for a set day and time. For large events, the catering section on your website sends them to your phone.

What is the difference between online ordering and a delivery app?

A delivery app is a marketplace: your restaurant is listed next to others and the app keeps a share of each order. Online ordering on your own page shows only your restaurant, keeps the full menu price and saves the guest for you.
