Customer spots your QR code and scans it
Your Eventifood QR code lives on your van — printed on a board, stuck to the hatch, or shown on a full-screen display. The customer points their phone camera at it. That's it. No app to download, no account to create. Your full menu opens instantly in their browser.
They browse your menu and build their order
Your full menu — with categories, item photos, descriptions, prices, and any extras or customisations — is right there on their phone. They can add modifiers (extra cheese, no onions), see dietary info, and tap to add items to their basket. All at their own pace, while you carry on cooking.
They pay cashlessly — card, phone, or Apple Pay
When the basket's ready, they pay securely through the app. Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay — whatever they've got. The payment is processed and confirmed in seconds. No cash to handle, no change to count, no float to worry about at the end of the night.
The order appears on your kitchen display instantly
The moment payment is confirmed, the order hits your kitchen display board — a large, colour-coded screen that shows every active order. You see the customer's name, what they ordered, any notes, and how long it's been waiting. No paper tickets, no shouting across the van, no missed items.
Mount customer display screens around your van or pitch
As well as the kitchen board for your team, Eventifood includes a public-facing display mode you can open on any spare screen — a tablet, a monitor, a TV. Mount it at the hatch, on the side of the van, at the picnic tables, anywhere. It shows everyone waiting exactly where their order is in the flow, in real time, with no login required. Run as many screens as you like, wherever people are standing.
Orders move through stages as you prepare them
As your team works through the order, you tap to move it through stages — Received, Being Prepared, Almost Ready, Ready for Collection. The customer sees their status update live on their phone. No one needs to shout a name across a crowded field. No one needs to guess how long they've got.
They get a notification the moment it's ready
When you mark an order Ready, two things happen automatically: the customer's live status page updates instantly in their browser, and they get an email straight to their phone. No app needed, no account to log in to. They know exactly when to come to the hatch — and there's no crowd building at the window, no cold food going to waste.
They collect their food — happy, no queue, no fuss
The customer walks up when they're ready, tells you their name or order number, and collects their food. Job done. No queue at the hatch, no cash changing hands, no back-and-forth about toppings — all of that happened on the phone. They leave happy. You get back to cooking.
