The difference

On the apps, the order belongs to them.
Here, it belongs to you.

Your customer, your name on the receipt, your Stripe account. The money goes from them to your bank without stopping anywhere in between.

Our story

“It started with a takeaway.”

Read how IndieMenu started

From paper menu to live page

How it works for you

1

Send us your menu

A photo, a PDF, or a link to your listing on the apps. We type it all up for you: categories, prices, sizes, spice levels, add-ons and dietary tags. You check it over and change anything you like.

2

Share your link

Put it on your Google Business profile, Instagram bio, printed menus, and QR codes on tables. Your customers are already there.

3

Orders come to you

You get an instant alert the moment an order arrives. Accept, set a wait time, and manage everything from one screen.

Build your client base

On the marketplaces, the customer is theirs.
With IndieMenu, they're yours.

When a customer orders through a marketplace, the marketplace owns the relationship. They email them, they retarget them, they push them to your competitor next time.

IndieMenu gives every customer a free account linked to your restaurant. They sign up, they come back, and you're building a real client base, not feeding someone else's platform.

  • Customers create an account on your page, not on a marketplace
  • Their full order history lives with you, encouraging repeat orders
  • Live order tracking keeps them informed and reduces support messages
  • Sign in with Google for a frictionless checkout experience

Frequently asked questions

Do my customers need to download an app?+

No. Customers order through a web page, just a link you share. It works on any phone or computer, no app download required.

How do I get paid?+

Payments are processed by Stripe and deposited directly into your bank account. IndieMenu never touches your money. The customer pays your Stripe account, not a marketplace's, so funds settle to your bank on Stripe's standard daily payout schedule. No waiting a week for a marketplace to send you what's already yours.

Do I keep what my customers spend?+

Yes. The money goes from your customer to your Stripe account to your bank, and we're never in the middle of it. You set your own prices, run your own offers, and change them whenever you like.

What does it cost?+

We price per restaurant, so tell us a bit about your place and we'll talk you through it. There's a flat monthly subscription and no hidden charges from us. Payments are processed by Stripe, who charge their own standard card processing fee. Get in touch and we'll give you the full picture.

Can I keep my Deliveroo or UberEats page running?+

Absolutely. IndieMenu is your own direct channel and doesn't affect your marketplace listings. Most restaurants run both while they build up their direct order volume.

How do customers find my ordering page?+

You get a link like yourrestaurant.indiemenu.co.uk to share anywhere: your Google Business profile, Instagram bio, printed menus, QR codes, or your website.

Is there a contract or minimum term?+

No lock-in. You pay month to month and can cancel any time.

What payment methods do customers use?+

All major credit and debit cards via Stripe (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay / Google Pay on supported devices).

How will I know when a new order comes in?+

Your dashboard sends an instant push notification to your phone or browser the moment an order arrives. No need to keep the tab open or refresh. You can accept and set an estimated wait time from anywhere.

Do customers get their own accounts?+

Yes, and this is one of IndieMenu's biggest advantages. Customers create a free account on your ordering page (or sign in with Google), track their live order, and build up a full history with you specifically. Every returning customer is yours, not a marketplace's.

Can I run promotions or discounts?+

Yes. You can set a sale price on any menu item at any time. Ideal for daily deals, happy hours, or clearing stock. The deal shows clearly on that item's price without touching your regular menu.

Can customers collect orders instead of getting them delivered?+

Yes. You can enable click & collect so customers choose delivery or collection at checkout. Collection orders have no delivery fee and don't require an address. Great for customers who prefer to pick up in person.

What happens when I'm closed?+

You set your opening hours in your dashboard. Outside those hours, your ordering page shows as closed and customers can't place orders.
