Bolt Food has launched a new scheduled ordering feature that allows customers to pre-order meals and have them delivered, even when restaurants are fully booked, closed or couriers are in high demand.
Details
The scheduled ordering feature is designed to enhance the Bolt Food experience in several ways. It will help restaurants optimize their orders, increase revenue and efficiently manage kitchen prep time.
Customers will benefit from a fixed delivery cost, which will be communicated to them when scheduling their delivery.
What they say
Edgar KitturCountry Manager, Bolt Food said:Scheduled orders will improve the overall experience of the Bolt Food app for restaurants, couriers and customers, resulting in a smoother operation.
The feature allows restaurants to optimize order management and kitchen preparation, couriers to increase profits by strategically scheduling deliveries throughout the day, and customers to enjoy their favorite restaurant meals through Bolt Food, all at their preferred time and location. Since we launched, there has been a 20% increase in orders using this feature.”
