Can you integrate with our existing POS system?

Yes. We integrate with Square, Toast, Lightspeed, Clover, Oracle MICROS, and other major POS platforms. The integration approach is confirmed during discovery based on what API access your vendor provides, before any development is scoped or priced.

Do you build both the customer app and driver app?

Yes. The customer app, the driver app, the restaurant management interface, and the admin dashboard are all built as one integrated system. Scoping them separately leads to integration problems that are expensive to fix once real orders are flowing.

How do you handle payment and driver payouts?

We use Stripe Connect for marketplace payment flows: customers pay into the platform, the commission is deducted automatically, and driver and restaurant payouts are scheduled and processed through the same system without manual reconciliation.

How long does it take to build a food delivery app?

A single-restaurant branded app typically takes eight to twelve weeks. A multi-restaurant aggregator with driver dispatch takes twelve to twenty weeks depending on the number of integrations. We give you a realistic timeline after a discovery call, not before.

Food Delivery App Development Company

Every restaurant paying 15 to 30 percent commission to a third-party platform on every order is funding a competitor’s infrastructure. A branded food delivery app moves those orders to a direct channel where the margin, the customer relationship, and the data all stay with the restaurant. That shift does not require a national audience. It requires an app good enough that regular customers choose it over the habit of opening DoorDash.

For delivery platform operators, the problem is infrastructure rather than branding. Managing menus, orders, payments, driver dispatch, and live customer tracking in real time is a complex engineering challenge that off-the-shelf tools only partially solve. The platforms that work at scale are custom-built around specific market conditions, restaurant relationships, and the delivery zones they actually serve.

01

Delivery and Driver App

Native iOS and Android apps for customers, restaurants, and drivers, each designed around the specific actions that role needs to complete quickly.

02

Admin Dashboard

Operations tools for platform managers: order management, driver dispatch, restaurant onboarding, menu control, promotional management, and the analytics your business decisions need to be based on.

03

White-Label Delivery Solutions

Branded delivery platforms built for restaurant groups, ghost kitchen operators, or delivery services launching in a new market under their own name.

Multiple restaurant partners on one platform, with customers choosing from a full catalogue. Requires restaurant onboarding, split payment processing, and commission management at the platform level.

A branded app for one restaurant, chain, or ghost kitchen group, where every order goes directly to the business rather than through a marketplace that earns a commission on it.

Digital ordering built into an existing restaurant’s website or app, handled by their own staff rather than a delivery fleet, for businesses managing their own last-mile fulfilment.

Customers who order food through DoorDash or Uber Eats every week have a benchmark. They expect to place an order in under a minute, receive confirmation immediately, watch a driver’s progress on a map, and know exactly when delivery is five minutes away. A branded restaurant app that falls short of any one of those steps loses the customer back to the third-party platform on the next order.

Meeting that benchmark is an engineering problem more than a design one. Real-time order confirmation requires the order reaching the kitchen the moment it is placed, not when a staff member checks a tablet. Live driver tracking requires continuous GPS updates pushed to the customer without draining the driver’s phone battery before the end of a shift. We build both sides of that experience, not just the customer-facing layer.

05 features

Restaurant browse with cuisine and rating filters
Real-time order status and driver tracking
Saved addresses and one-tap reorder
In-app payment with saved cards and digital wallets
Loyalty rewards and promotional offers

Branded ordering for one restaurant or small chain, with POS integration and driver management. These typically fall in the lower five-figure range and can launch in eight to twelve weeks.

Multi-restaurant aggregators with driver dispatch, split payments, and an admin dashboard. These sit in the mid five-figure range and require twelve to twenty weeks depending on integration complexity.

Fully custom platforms with advanced matching, multiple city support, analytics, and white-label capabilities. These run into the high five and six-figure range with longer delivery timelines.

These are market ranges, not fixed quotes. We give you an itemized number after a short discovery call.

01Discovery

We map your restaurant relationships, your delivery zones, your POS system, and your commission model before any design decisions are made.

02Design

We prototype the customer ordering flow and the driver and restaurant experience before development starts, so real-world friction is found early.

03Development

We build in sprints with regular check-ins so your operations team can review real order flows rather than waiting for a final delivery to give feedback.

04Testing

Every build is tested against your POS with simulated peak traffic before release so kitchen integration issues are caught before your first real order.

We build customer and driver apps in React Native or Flutter for both iOS and Android, with native modules where real-time GPS and background location require them. The backend runs on Node.js for real-time order and tracking events, with PostgreSQL for transactional data and Redis for live order state. Payments go through Stripe Connect for split payments and payouts. Maps and routing use Google Maps Platform.

A food delivery app lives or dies on the thirty seconds between order placed and kitchen notified. We treat that handoff as the most important engineering problem on the build, not a detail left for integration testing.

Support Through Every Menu And Zone Change

Yes. A branded ordering app with your own delivery fleet, your own pricing, and no per-order commission is one of the most common things we build. You keep the customer data, the margin, and the relationship, which adds up significantly across a year of orders.
