Your flavours, your margins
Aggregators shouldn't take a cut of every curry.
Stop giving 30% of every order to platforms. Build your own customer base with an ordering system that handles spice levels, rice options, and meal deals properly.
Aggregators are eating into your margins
Indian food is one of the most popular takeaway cuisines. Aggregators charge premium rates because they know you'll pay.
Gone on every order
Commission fees compound fast. A busy weekend can cost you hundreds in platform fees alone.
Orders get confused
"Was that mild or medium?" Phone orders during busy service lead to mistakes. Online ordering gets it right every time.
Customer emails you own
Your regulars order every week, but you can't contact them directly. No loyalty programs, no direct promos.
Your regulars love your food. Give them a way to order direct.
Your restaurant, your platform
A branded storefront that handles Indian menus properly. Spice levels, rice choices, meal deals—all configurable.
Zero commission
Flat monthly fee, no matter how many orders you take. Busy Diwali weekend? Same price as a quiet week.
Full modifier support
Spice levels, rice choices, naan options, sides—build the menu your way. Customers choose exactly what they want.
Smart delivery zones
Draw your delivery area. Set minimum orders and fees per zone. Food arrives hot because you control the radius.
Own your customers
Customer emails, order history, favourite dishes—all yours. Send promos, build loyalty, bring them back.
Commission fees add up fast
Third-party platforms take a cut of every order. With TypeMenu, you pay one flat fee regardless of how much you sell.

Drag the sliders to match your business
That's back in your pocket.
Everything an Indian kitchen needs to run direct
Not a stripped-back order form. The tools that get a full curry-house order to the kitchen right — and turn a Friday-night order into a weekly regular you actually own.
Order ahead, not just ASAP
Take orders for now or for later. Set prep and lead times and the rush spreads into bookable 15-minute slots — up to 30 days out — instead of forty tickets all landing at 8pm.
Set meals and banquets, built right
Bundle a banquet for two, a family feast or a midweek meal deal into a single fixed price that applies itself at checkout — the higher-value orders aggregators make fiddly to assemble.
"Out for delivery" by text
Automatic email and SMS keep customers updated from confirmed through to out-for-delivery — fewer "where's my order?" calls tying up the phone on your busiest night.
Banquet night, on autopilot
Run automatic deals: a Sunday banquet price, money off over a threshold, free delivery, a first-order discount or a reward on every fifth order. Set the rule once and it applies itself at checkout.
Charges on your terms
Add a delivery fee, a carrier-bag charge or a small-order surcharge — fixed or percentage, applied only to the order types, times or zones you choose.
Already on Square? Stay there
Online orders sync straight into your Square register with two-way status updates, and card payments run through your existing Square account. One till, one view of every order.
Your restaurant, not a marketplace listing
On an aggregator you're one logo in a scroll. Here the whole storefront is yours — set it up to look the part in minutes, no designer required.
- A refined, traditional lookStart from the Classic Bistro preset — one of six built-in storefront designs — for an elegant, sit-down feel that suits a curry house.
- Your fonts, your coloursChoose from 14 curated font pairings and set your own brand colours, so the storefront matches your restaurant and your menus.
- Your own web addressRun it on order.yourrestaurant.com, or our free subdomain. One link for the menu flyer, the receipt and your socials.
- Built for a big menuShow starters, mains, sides and sundries as image cards or a tight list with sticky category tabs — so a long curry-house menu still feels quick to order from.

Every order lands on a live screen sorted by status, with the spice level and sides shown clearly — so the kitchen makes it right first time, even when the phone won't stop on a Friday night.
Flexible Charges
Add a delivery fee, a carrier-bag charge or a small-order surcharge — fixed or percentage, with rules for exactly when each one applies.
Payment Processing

Common questions
Can customers choose spice levels and sides like rice and naan?
Yes. Add unlimited modifier groups to any dish — a required spice level (mild, medium, hot or extra hot), rice and naan choices, sundries and a free-text box for special requests. The full order comes through exactly as the customer built it, so there's no 'was that mild or medium?' on the phone.
Can I sell set meals, banquets and meal deals?
Yes. Build a fixed-price bundle from the required items — a banquet for two, a family feast or a midweek meal deal — and the price applies automatically when those items are in the cart. You can also discount a bundle by a percentage when everything is bought together.
Can I keep delivery tight so the food arrives hot?
Yes. Draw your delivery zones on a map and give each one its own minimum order, fee and hours. Customers outside your area can't place a delivery order, so a curry never travels further than it should and turns up cold.
Will it cope with our Friday and Saturday rush?
That's exactly what it's built for. There are no order limits on any plan, orders land on a live kitchen screen instead of a paper spike, scheduled slots spread the load across the evening, and automatic SMS updates cut down the 'where's my order?' calls.
Can I run a banquet night or loyalty offer?
Yes. Set up automatic deals — a Sunday banquet price, money off over a threshold, free delivery, a first-order discount or a reward on every fifth order. The rules apply themselves at checkout with no codes for customers to type.
Can I run this alongside Just Eat or Deliveroo?
Absolutely, and most of our restaurants do. Aggregators are good for discovery; TypeMenu is where you convert those customers into direct, commission-free repeat orders. Put your link on the menu flyer, the bag and your socials and watch the regulars move across.
Do you provide delivery drivers?
No — TypeMenu is the ordering platform, not a courier. You deliver with your own drivers or offer collection, so you keep control of the experience and pay no rider fees on top.
Are there commissions, and can I cancel any time?
No commission — TypeMenu is a flat monthly subscription. The only extra is standard card processing from your payment provider: Stripe is built in, or payments run through Square if you use Square POS. There are no contracts and no cancellation fees, so you can cancel from your dashboard whenever you like.
