  • Dispatch by hand or automatically, several nearby orders per trip
  • Live driver map, driver phone app and a branded tracking page

What you get

Everything that ships with Delivery

Delivery zones and fees

Draw rings around your store or list ZIP codes. Each zone sets its delivery fee, minimum order, free-delivery threshold and extra ETA time. Checkout checks the address and quotes the fee before the customer pays.

Dispatch board

Every delivery in one live list: preparing, ready, out for delivery and delivered. Assign orders to a driver in two clicks, or switch on automatic dispatch to send nearly ready orders to the closest free driver.

Multi-order trips

Nearby orders are grouped into one trip, up to the limit you set, and the stops are put in a sensible order. Suggested trips show up right in the assign dialog.

Live driver map

See the store, your zones, every drop-off and each driver's position and route on one map, with live ETAs that update as drivers move.

Driver app, no download

Each driver gets a private link that opens on their phone. Start a shift, share location, accept trips, get directions in Google Maps or Apple Maps, call or text the customer and mark orders delivered.

Customer tracking page

Customers follow their order from kitchen to door on a page in your branding, with status steps, an ETA and the driver on the map while they're on the way.

Cash and card at the door

Offer cash on delivery (with an optional limit) or card at the door alongside online payment. Drivers record what they collect, including tips.

End-of-shift cash count

See what each driver owes the store, net of card tips you owe them, then record the count and any shortage or overage.

FAQ

Common questions

Do my drivers need to download an app?

No. Each driver gets a private link that opens in their phone's browser, and they can add it to their home screen. Their location is shared with the store only while they're on shift.

Can Vertex send DoorDash or Uber drivers?

No. Delivery in Vertex is built for restaurants that run their own drivers. If you need on-demand drivers from a delivery network, that service isn't part of Vertex today.

How is the delivery fee worked out?

By zone. A zone is either a distance ring around your store (based on estimated driving distance) or a list of ZIP codes, and each zone has its own fee, minimum order and optional free-delivery threshold.

Can customers pay cash on delivery?

Yes. You can offer cash on delivery, card at the door, or both, next to paying online. Set a cash limit if you only want smaller orders paid in cash. Cash orders go to the kitchen right away and are marked paid when the driver records the payment.

Can one driver take several orders at once?

Yes. Nearby orders can go out on one trip, up to the number of orders and the distance you set. The assign dialog suggests trips, and automatic dispatch groups them for you.

Which plans include delivery?

Delivery is included for restaurants on the Growth and Scale plans, with no per-order or per-delivery fee from Vertex.
