Order Throttling

Order Throttling allows restaurant chains to limit the amount of orders it will be able to accept in a specified amount of time to reduce strain during peak times. This feature allows restaurant chains to set a rule on the maximum dollar-amount of orders they can effectively fulfill within an allotted time frame. When an order is placed that surpasses Order Throttling rules, the order will be pushed back to the next available time—decreasing stress on the restaurant chain kitchen and helping set customer expectations in a timely manner.

FAQ

What is Order Throttling?

Order throttling is critical to avoid locations having a backlog of orders and helps prevent a poor customer service experience when picking up food, such as: orders not ready, long lines and/or no parking. Order Throttling can also be implemented by restaurant chains that have employment and service challenges (regardless of restaurant size): if a location is unable to handle a specific amount of orders at peak business times, Order Throttling rules prevent stress on both the restaurant and subsequently its customers.

Does Lunchbox offer group ordering?

Yes. Group online ordering allows multiple people to easily order food together under the umbrella of a single order. A user creates an order, sends an invite for others to join and sets a cut-off time. Each participant can choose their own food items and even pay their bill. At the specified cut-off time, the order is automatically marked as final. The order is captured for payment and submitted to the restaurant to begin food preparation. Your restaurants benefit from an increased reach to larger groups, cultivation of repeat business, and maintenance of loyal customers.

Your restaurant sets a rule based on the customer’s address being within a given radius of your location, and for all customers outside of that radius the rule requires that the minimum order amount be $15, with an additional $2 delivery charge added to the total. Lunchbox lets you easily set an exception to this rule, so that if you can waive the delivery fee for customers outside the radius established in your rule if they meet a certain requirement, such as different order total threshold. Best of all, there is no limit to how many rules and exceptions you can set, and they can vary across all your chain’s locations.
