Restaurant ordering: package, custom app or marketplace?
Choose the operating model before comparing development costs. Ask each developer to list the platforms, order statuses and outside services their quote covers.
| Your product route | What to scope | What to verify before approval |
|---|---|---|
| Defined ordering package | An existing ordering product with your branding and the agreed features. | Check branding, licence terms, hosting, renewals, included changes and source-code terms in the package agreement. |
| Restaurant-owned custom app | Ordering and administration tailored to your kitchen or chain. | Review the AuraDinings screens. Agree dish options, pickup or delivery, loyalty rules, and how staff handle rejected or cancelled orders. |
| Multi-vendor marketplace | Separate restaurants, customer orders and platform operations. | Scope onboarding, commissions, settlements and dispatch separately. Verify each POS vendor’s API access before committing to integration. |

Connected restaurant operations
Restaurant App Integrations: POS, KDS, Payments and Delivery
Connect customer ordering with the systems your restaurant already uses. We plan each integration around available APIs, your outlet workflows, and how staff should respond when a connection is delayed or unavailable.
Restaurant POS Integration
Route app and website orders to the correct outlet's point-of-sale system. Confirm how item IDs, modifiers, taxes, discounts, and order acknowledgements map between systems before development.
Menu and Availability Sync
Agree which system controls prices, menus, and stock availability, then synchronise supported changes across ordering channels. Set the update frequency and decide how each outlet handles sold-out items.
Kitchen Display System Integration
Send kitchen tickets to a supported KDS with item options, preparation notes, and order priority. Map accepted, preparing, and ready statuses so kitchen staff and customers receive consistent updates.
Payments and Refund Workflows
Match gateway payment confirmations to restaurant orders. Define what happens when a payment succeeds but an order fails, including staff alerts, reconciliation, and refund handling through the supported provider.
Delivery and Dispatch Integration
Connect supported delivery providers or your own driver workflow with delivery zones, pickup readiness, assignments, and customer status updates. Confirm tracking access and cancellation rules for each delivery partner.
Retries, Alerts and Recovery
Plan duplicate-order protection, controlled retries, and an audit trail for failed updates. Agree on operator alerts and a fallback process when the POS, kitchen, payment, or delivery connection is unavailable.
Scope your integrations before the build
Share your POS or KDS provider, outlet count, ordering channels, and delivery model. We confirm API access, supported features, vendor licences, and test requirements before estimating the work. Explore the restaurant POS, KOT, and inventory planning guide for a requirements checklist.
Restaurant App Revenue Models: Which Fit Your Business?
Your own restaurant earns revenue from food orders and may offer memberships or delivery services. Marketplace operators can also charge vendors commissions or listing fees. Choose the model that fits your business; app features alone do not guarantee profit.
Commission-Based Model
Charge restaurants or vendors per order in marketplace platforms.
Subscription Plans
Offer memberships with defined delivery benefits, discounts or exclusive offers.
Featured Listings
Let marketplace vendors pay for clearly labelled promoted listings.
Delivery & Convenience Fees
Show any delivery or service fee before the customer pays.
In-App Advertising
Promote food brands, restaurants, and offers within the app.
