Getting started: sign up, add a restaurant, order

Three steps to a working app

From signing up to your first order is about half an hour, and most of that time goes into the product list.

Create a restaurant or join an existing one

After you sign up, the app asks which of the two is your case.

My restaurant isn't here yet. You create it and become the owner: upload the product list, add suppliers, invite the team.

My restaurant is already in the app. Find it in the list and ask to join. The owner confirms — and everything opens up. If someone sent you an invitation link, just open it: it takes you straight into the restaurant, no searching.

What to fill in on the restaurant card right away

The card is what your supplier sees on your order. The minimum that saves phone calls: delivery address, receiving hours, and who meets the van, with a phone number. The legal entity and tax number are for paperwork — you can add them later.

More on roles and invitations in the article about the kitchen team.

What it costs

Right now the app is free: it is still being finished, and you are helping to get it there.

A per-restaurant subscription will appear later — we will warn you well in advance rather than putting up a wall out of nowhere.

What's next

Build the product list: the kitchen product matrix. Then your first order, put together by walking the storeroom. And install the app on your phone so you don't have to open a browser every time: how to install it.

Try it in your own restaurant

The app is free: orders, receiving, suppliers and price lists. Sign up with a phone number; it installs on a phone like any other app.
