Solution
Order online, pick up without waiting
Your customers order from their smartphone or your website, choose their pickup slot, and pay online. The kitchen receives the order in real time, prepares the meal, and the customer gets a notification when it's ready. No queue, no waiting, no ordering mistakes.
Before / after
Your customers queue 20 minutes to order and pay. Your kitchen is overwhelmed between noon and 1pm, then calm. You lose customers in a hurry.
Your customers order in 2 minutes, choose their slot, and pick up in 30 seconds. Your kitchen produces continuously, without peaks. You don't lose anyone anymore.
Why this feature matters
This feature is built directly into the CalcMenu recipe and menu database. The same data serves kitchen, service, and administration—no re-entry, no paper versions.
Your customers order from their smartphone or your website, choose their pickup slot, and pay online. The kitchen receives the order in real time, prepares the meal, and the customer gets a notification when it's ready. No queue, no waiting, no ordering mistakes.
What it gives you
Filtered online ordering
The customer browses your online menu, filters by allergens and diet, adds to cart and orders. CalcMenu checks compatibility in real time.
Chosen pickup slots
The customer chooses their pickup slot (12:00, 12:15, 12:30...). CalcMenu limits spots per slot to smooth production. The customer knows exactly when to come.
Notification when ready
As soon as the order is ready, the customer receives an SMS or push notification. They come to the 'Click & collect' counter, scan their QR, and leave with their meal in 30 seconds.
How it works
Enable Click & collect module
From the CalcMenu admin, enable the module, configure your pickup slots, payment modes and collection counter. Online in 15 minutes.
Integrate with your site or app
JavaScript widget, REST API or direct link. The customer orders from your existing website, your mobile app, or a QR code on the table. The experience is seamless and branded in your colours.
Track performance
Real-time dashboard: orders per hour, average basket, conversion rate, average prep time, customer satisfaction. Adjust your menus and slots to optimise.
