How it works

One customer, start to finish — and who does what.

Follow one hungry customer from a Google search to their fifth order. At each step you'll see what the customer experiences, what your restaurant has to do, and what iOrders takes off your plate.

STAGE 1 / 3

Get found

A customer searches for what they're craving. Your iOrders website is built to rank for that local search, and your reviews give them a reason to click you, not the marketplace.

The customer

Searches, sees you, clicks

  • Searches "butter chicken near me"
  • Sees your restaurant with its rating and reviews
  • Lands on your own website — menu, hours, order button
Your restaurant

Keeps serving great food

  • Nothing to set up — the site is built for you
  • Great service, so customers leave reviews when asked
iOrders

Builds and ranks your presence

  • Builds your website engineered for local search
  • Keeps menu, hours and ordering on your own domain
  • Review Genie asks happy customers for reviews and grows your rating

STAGE 2 / 3

Get the order

They order on your website — commission-free. Smart upsells grow the ticket. If it's delivery, iOrders managed delivery gets it there and carries the risk. Your kitchen only prepares the food.

The customer

Orders in a few taps

  • Builds the order on your website or app
  • Sees a well-timed suggestion — "Add garlic naan?"
  • Chooses pickup or delivery, pays, and tracks the order
Your restaurant

Prepares the food

  • Order prints or appears in the kitchen
  • Cooks and hands it to the driver or the customer
  • That's it — no drivers, no delivery risk
iOrders

Runs ordering and delivery

  • Commission-free online ordering, branded as you
  • Smart upsells that increase average order value
  • Managed delivery: driver dispatch, tracking, and the issues and risk that come with delivery

STAGE 3 / 3

Get them back

The first order is the expensive one. From here, marketing automation does the work: loyalty points, push notifications and AI-written campaigns bring that customer back — automatically.

The customer

Gets a reason to return

  • Earns loyalty points on the order
  • Gets a push notification when it's time to reorder
  • Your restaurant sits on their home screen, in your branded app
Your restaurant

Does nothing extra

  • No campaigns to write, no lists to manage
  • Sees repeat customers walk back in
iOrders

Runs the marketing on autopilot

  • Loyalty & rewards program, ready to go
  • AI-powered campaigns written, timed and sent for you
  • Push notifications through your branded mobile app
