The problem
Long lines, busy events, or solo setups shouldn't mean lost sales
Food trucks lose revenue every day to operational friction — not bad food.
-
Long lines
Customers walk away when the wait looks too long — especially during lunch and event rushes.
-
Missed customers
People who would have ordered leave before they reach the window.
-
Order confusion
Handwritten tickets, shouted names, and mixed-up orders slow everyone down.
-
Crowded ordering windows
Everyone clusters at the truck while staff juggle cash, cards, and order taking.
-
Disconnected systems
Online orders, in-person orders, and kitchen workflow do not stay in sync across multiple tools you are paying for.
-
Marco Polo
You booked a last-minute gig or moved to a private location and hungry customers are not passing by.

Pricing
NO monthly subscriptions, contracts, or bills!
How? Most ordering providers charge monthly fees whether you're busy or not. FoodOrderz doesn't. Vendors pay no monthly subscriptions or platform fees. Use it a little, a lot, or shut down for the winter — you'll never receive a monthly bill!

How does FoodOrderz make money?
Customers pay a small convenience fee on orders. Vendors don't have to raise menu prices to cover software subscriptions, while the fee helps support platform operations, SMS messaging, and continued product development.
That means vendors can focus on growing their business without another monthly payment.
Zero risk to try — and keep using as long as you'd like.
- No contracts
- No subscriptions
- No monthly bills
No monthly subscriptions, no hidden fees, no surprises. Try it out for a while and give us your feedback!

FAQ
Common questions
Do customers need an app?
No. Customers order from a mobile-friendly web page using a link or QR code. There is nothing to download from an app store.
What hardware is required?

Can I use my own tablet?
