Where a direct ordering flow helps

Guests should order through your own link, QR code or website instead of only through marketplaces.
The flow should feel clear for guests and manageable for the team during daily service.
You want a fixed monthly software cost and clearer control over repeat guests.

Direct orders under your own brand

Use one clear destination for direct orders, so building your own direct channel while existing platforms can still run in parallel supports your own channel instead of becoming just another marketplace listing.

Share the link on Google, your website, social media or flyers.

Guests order in the browser without installing a new app.

Common questions

Questions about Alternative to delivery platforms for restaurants

Is Ordentino an alternative to Lieferando or Uber Eats?
Ordentino is not a marketplace and does not bring its own reach. It is an own ordering channel that works best in parallel to platforms — Ordentino for regulars, platforms for discovery.
Do I lose marketplace reach if I switch?
Only if you turn the platforms off. The pragmatic path is to keep them on and slowly redirect regulars (via QR, receipts, Google Business Profile links) to your Ordentino page.
How do I move regulars away from the platform?
Add the Ordentino link to receipts, packaging, Google Business Profile and social bios. Offer a small loyalty incentive for guests who order directly. Over weeks the share of direct orders grows.
What about customer data ownership?
Marketplaces own the customer relationship. With Ordentino, contact info and order history live in your own back office, which matters for repeat marketing and operational decisions.
Can I still get reviews and ratings?
Ordentino does not run its own marketplace listing or rating layer. Reviews should live where guests already search (Google Business Profile, Tripadvisor) — Ordentino focuses on the ordering flow itself.
