On-demand pickup & delivery on your terms — branded as you, priced as you, with your diner data going to you. For 10% instead of 30%.
Once the commission is taken, the menu is marked up, and the customer's details are kept — you're running a kitchen for someone else's business.
On a R200 order, R60 to the aggregator. After fees and food cost, you keep R50.
Names, numbers, addresses, order history — the 3rd party platform keeps it. You can't text, thank, or bring them back.
A R130 dish in-store is listed at R170 on 3rd party platforms — marked up to absorb the 30%. They notice.
No app store. No log-in. No friction. They tap a link, browse your menu, choose on-demand pickup or delivery, and pay — all without leaving the browser.
On-demand ordering changes how the line moves, how prep lands in the kitchen, and how many diners actually finish checkout.
Direct orders flow straight to your kitchen — no aggregator in the middle, less chaos at the counter, more turnover per hour.
↑ Higher hourly coversPickup and delivery start prep now — not a future time slot. Scheduled ordering isn't in the pilot yet; everything is on-demand.
Live today, not a waitlistNo app store, no log-in — fewer diners drop off mid-order.
Browser to bag, under a minuteZapAhead is your branded ordering site — for anyone who finds you via QR, link, social, or search. We're not building a marketplace that lists every restaurant side by side; you get direct discovery without competing for the same page.
QR codes, table talkers, flyers, Instagram, Google, and word of mouth — new diners and regulars alike land on your menu, at your prices. You keep every customer you convert.
When a diner chooses delivery, they see the exact fee at checkout — calculated from a live Uber Direct quote for their address and your kitchen.
A side-by-side on a R50,000 month.
We use the menu you've already built on 3rd party delivery platforms. You send us the link — we do the rest. Most kitchens are taking orders within the hour.
Drop in your existing 3rd party delivery platform page. That's everything we need — menu, photos, descriptions, prices.
We rebuild your menu inside ZapAhead — same items, same photos, your real prices. You review it. We adjust anything you want.
Your branded ordering link goes live. Share it on social, on your bill, on the door. Orders land in your inbox.
Merchants ask who handles wrong orders, cold food, and late couriers. Here's the honest answer — before you sign up.
Delivery is fulfilled by Uber Direct. If a courier is late, the order goes to the wrong address, or the bag is damaged in transit, the diner contacts Uber's delivery support from their live tracking link.
Prepare the order correctly and respond if the diner reaches you directly. You receive a WhatsApp alert when each paid order lands so you can start prep immediately.
Payment refunds follow Paystack (card) or Zapper (wallet) rules. Platform support helps with menu, links, and technical issues during trading hours — we'll guide you through the first refund case.
Pay by card or Zapper — no app download required. Card works in any mobile browser. We do not offer EFT at checkout yet.
Month-to-month — no long-term lock-in. R250 per month from your go-live date, plus 10% on completed orders. No setup fee. Drop your details — we'll have you live by dinner service.
