New Online Ordering System Feature Enhancements - Part 2

While the pandemic continues to affect the food service industry, we're doing whatever we can to help you through this challenging time, to make your business more profitable and earn more revenue.

Since takeout, curbside and delivery services are keeping many restaurants afloat, we’ve added even more features to our popular online ordering system, fully-integrated with the rest of our catering software.

You can read about some of our recent feature enhancements for online ordering through CaterZen, based on suggestions submitted from CaterZen clients. Today, we’re excited to announce another round of improvements to the online ordering system, to help you pivot and sell more food online.

Include Dietary Restriction Info

Without a doubt, this is one of the most important upgrades to our online ordering platform. Now you can easily indicate the dietary restrictions for any menu item, where clients will see clear icons next to the item title.

Add any relevant dietary restriction options, such as:

• Vegetarian
• Gluten-Free
• Lactose-Free
• Kosher
• and many more:

Note this can only be done on a menu item. If you want to list dietary restrictions for a specific menu option, one way you can add it is via parenthesis in the Option Choice Name, like "Pizza sauce (GF)".
