Orderaway - About

This provides explanations of Terms and Concepts associated with Orderaway that maybe used and/or referred to throughout swiftpos Products and Features, as well as in the swiftpos Knowledge Base.

 


Subjects      

 


Event      

Generally, this refers to an Event which can be configured for an Orderaway Profile and once configured can be used to provide patrons with a URL to place orders prior to the Event. This is not to be confused with the Events module. It does NOT require registration for the Events module and functions independently of the Events module.


For example, Performing Arts Venues can provide their patrons with a URL so that they can place orders in the days prior to the Event. Then, on the Event day, patrons can quickly pickup their order without having to queue and pay for their order. This feature allows for a higher turnover of orders for the Venue, and a more conducive experience for patrons.

Location Suffix     

Each Orderaway Cloud Client ID (Location) will have it's own URL, as can be seen in the Profile tab. From where an Order is being placed is referred to as the Order's location. This could be a a Room, Seat, Suite, Table, etc. Once identified, it can be suffixed to the Orderaway URL and presented to patrons in the form of a QR Code.
