How an order settles on Dishlane — no cut at any step
Delivery apps and tied-in POS systems take a percentage of your sales — forever. On a £22 order, that can be £6–£8 gone before you've paid for the food.
Commission is charged on every order, every month, for as long as you use the platform. Here's the yearly cost at a few realistic monthly sales levels — using each platform's own published rates.
| Monthly online sales | Delivery apps (~25%) | Toast (~2.75%) | Square (~2.5%) | Dishlane |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| £3,000/mo | −£9,000/yr | −£990/yr | −£900/yr | £0 lost |
| £6,000/mo | −£18,000/yr | −£1,980/yr | −£1,800/yr | £0 lost |
| £12,000/mo | −£36,000/yr | −£3,960/yr | −£3,600/yr | £0 lost |
Commission-percentage figures are each platform's own published rates (see comparison below); this shows commission lost only, not card-processing fees, which apply under any platform including Dishlane via your own payment account.
Customers order from their own phone — scan a QR at the table, or collection and delivery straight from your website. Every order arrives priced, paid and legible, no phone tag, no misheard card numbers.
Delivery zones and fees are yours to set, and payment lands in your own account the moment the order does.
Scan-at-table QR · collection · delivery zones & fees · paid online
Scanned at the table · paid online · sent to the kitchen
QR, collection and delivery orders all land on one kitchen display, colour-aged so the ticket that has waited longest is the one you see first.
Dockets and receipts print automatically the moment an order lands — the kitchen keeps moving even when nobody has a hand free for a screen.
SWR live board · updates every 10s · dockets auto-print on new orders
A customer who has ordered once is your cheapest sale. Points on every order, gift cards they can send to friends, and passes that live in Apple & Google Wallet keep your restaurant in their pocket.
Email and WhatsApp campaigns, coupons and automatic review requests run from the same system you run service from — no exports, no third-party list uploads.

Start with a website and ordering. Switch on the rest as you grow — each part is a module you enable per plan, not a separate app to buy and bolt on.
Marketing pages, menu, blog — edited by you, no code. Your domain, your brand.
Pickup, delivery with zones & fees, or scan-at-table. Pay online.
Live order screen and automatic docket/receipt printing when an order lands.
Loyalty & gift cards customers can save to Apple & Google Wallet.
Email & WhatsApp campaigns, coupons, and automatic review requests.
Answers customer questions from your menu — vegan options, allergens, hours.
Trends, peak hours, best and worst sellers — exportable.
Reservations with reminders, and a catering enquiry pipeline.
Take orders and card payments at the counter and at the table, in one system.
You connect your own payment, messaging and domain accounts — the platform runs on your rails. Money lands in your bank, not ours. It's also why founding pricing is possible: you run on your own accounts, so we pass the saving straight to you.
If you ever leave: your domain and payment accounts are already yours, and your menu, photos, pages and policies export with you.
We're built for independent restaurants. We're not trying to be an enterprise till system, and we'll tell you where the others are stronger.

Or pay once — the founding offer ↓Only 25 lifetime seats — no monthly platform fee, ever, and you bring your own keys. The earlier you join, the less you pay: once a tier fills, the price steps up.
one-time · bring your own keys
Bring your own keys: you connect and pay for your own card processing, SMS and domain (usually cheaper than tied-in systems). Fair-use quotas apply to platform-provided services. Only 25 seats; once they're gone, founding pricing closes and only subscriptions remain.
Lock your seat before the price steps up.
Straight talk · before you sign
We're a new platform, not a 20-year incumbent — and we'd rather you hear that from us. We're built specifically for independent UK restaurants, and we focus on doing your website, ordering and day-to-day operations brilliantly.
Founding members get lifetime pricing and a direct line to shape what we build. Features roll out over the coming months; you'll always know what's live today versus what's next. Ottomans – Wood Street is our first live restaurant — ask us for a look.

Yes. Card payments run through your own Stripe, Square or PayPal account, so the money goes straight to you — we are never in the middle of it. You pay a flat subscription (or a one-time founding fee), and we take nothing per order.
Your own card provider still charges its normal processing fee — Stripe, Square and PayPal publish their rates. That fee exists on every platform; the difference here is that nothing is added on top of it, and no per-order platform fee exists at all.
No. Plans run monthly, 3-monthly or yearly and you can cancel anytime — there is no minimum term and no exit fee. Founding seats are a one-time payment, not a contract.
You do. Your domain is registered in your name, the site content is yours, and your menu, photos, pages and policies are exportable whenever you want them.
You keep everything that matters: your domain is registered to you, your Stripe, Square or PayPal account is yours, and you can export your content — menu, photos, pages, policies. Your money was never routed through us in the first place.
Yes. The POS module takes orders and card payments at the counter and at the table, in the same system as your online orders and kitchen screen.
We are built in the UK, for UK independents, and everything is priced and settled in pounds (GBP). If you trade outside the UK, we are honestly not the right fit yet.
Ottomans on Wood Street, Walthamstow (E17) is our first live restaurant — 4.9★ on Google across 112 reviews. We are a new platform and would rather show you one real restaurant than a wall of logos. Ask us for a look around it.
