Who it is for

  • Brick-and-mortar restaurants wanting corporate catering orders

    The marketplace brings workplace buyers to the restaurant; the vendor says average orders are over $420.

  • Restaurants that want catering orders on their own website

    Online Ordering links are created automatically once a restaurant is on the marketplace.

  • Restaurants without their own delivery drivers

    Dispatch supplies professional drivers on demand for orders up to 20 miles away.

Less suited to: Ghost kitchens and virtual brands: ezCater says it does not let purely virtual brands join, and a location needs 6+ months of online reviews and a 3.5+ star rating on Yelp or Google.
