What you can order

Food, retail, services and events. One tap each.

OrderLink isn't only for kitchens. Every business type gets a real storefront — actual photos, real prices and stock, and ordering that works on any phone.

One platform, four ways to sell. No app for customers to download.

Four steps, in under a minute

The customer journey from tap to collection — no app, no friction, no queue.

01

Tap or scan

Customer taps the NFC card or scans the QR code — the menu opens in a second.

02

Browse & order

Big photos, clear prices, extras and a sticky basket. Ordering takes seconds.

03

Pay

Pay online or at the stall. Payment confirms only after secure gateway verification.

04

Collect

The kitchen prepares. The customer watches their order number go Ready — and collects.

Ordering infrastructure, not a marketplace

A complete platform your business owns — not a listing that rents you your own customers.

Event & stall ordering

Customers order from their phones anywhere at your stall or event — no physical queue, no extra cashier.

Restaurant table ordering

Scan the table QR/NFC, order to the table, track the bill and pay — dine-in built for speed.

One permanent smart URL

Every NFC card and QR code points to a permanent link. Change your menu, prices or event — never reprint a tag.

No app download

Works instantly in the phone browser as a fast, installable web app. iPhone and Android.

Gateway-ready payments

Card, EFT or pay-at-stall per business configuration. Payments only confirm after gateway verification — never on the browser's word.

Live dashboards

Kitchen display, queue stats, sales, popular products and NFC tap analytics in real time.

Simple, monthly pricing

Pick a package

Monthly subscriptions only — pay month to month, cancel anytime. Ordering goes live as soon as your first payment is confirmed.
