Restaurants can promote their direct ordering link through their website, Google Business Profile, social media, email, SMS, QR codes, receipts, and loyalty programs.
Multi-location restaurant software provides centralized control over menus, pricing, employees, inventory, orders, permissions, reporting, and business-center operations while allowing each location to operate independently.
