- Independent restaurants in Southwest Washington and Northwest Oregon
- Worth noticing
- The described payment flow charges customers only after the restaurant accepts an order; rejected orders are not charged.
Field notes
The described flow holds payment until the restaurant accepts an order, and says a rejection means no charge. Staff can adjust pickup estimates to the current kitchen load, remove an unavailable item for the day, and undo a ticket bump before its ready text is sent. The cost example uses 2.6% plus 15¢ for processing and notes that a restaurant’s actual rate may differ.
