Connect each pizza choice to preparation and delivery.
Run a pizza ordering channel with Ordering.co’s catalog, merchant, and delivery tools. Configure the menu your kitchen actually makes, then verify that sizes, toppings, prices, preparation instructions, and handoff details stay understandable through the whole order.
From a customized pizza to the customer’s door
- 1Configure and choose the pizzaSet up your products, sizes, and topping choices. Decide which combinations the menu allows and review the resulting order in each chosen customer channel.
- 2Confirm price and fulfillmentThe customer reviews the configured choices, total, address, and delivery or pickup time. Test unavailable items, an out-of-zone address, and an unsuccessful payment.
- 3Prepare the order in the restaurantThe team receives the order through its merchant workflow. Check that the kitchen sees the selected size, modifiers, quantities, and any relevant instructions before preparing it.
- 4Hand over and follow deliveryCoordinate pickup with the delivery operation or customer. Agree how the team manages a delayed order, incorrect item, failed delivery, and any refund decision.
Configure pizza options and validate them end to end
The product editor supports options, conditions, selection limits, and half-option settings. A setting in the editor is a configuration tool; test the selected customer channel and the kitchen’s order view.
Review product option configuration- Sizes, toppings, and conditional choices
- Build the actual menu combinations your team offers, including required and optional selections. Test allowed and disallowed combinations and confirm the final order details.
- Whole and half pricing
- The editor has separate whole and half prices for eligible option configurations. Set those prices explicitly rather than assuming a half topping costs half the whole price. Validate the complete configured order.
Connect the kitchen and dispatch workflows
Pizza delivery software should explain who accepts, prepares, releases, and delivers an order. A connected storefront does not decide oven capacity or guarantee a delivery time.
- Kitchen handoff
- Confirm the merchant screen or proposed POS, printer, or KDS connection. Test how modifiers and order changes appear; define who catches a missing order or unavailable ingredient.
- Pickup and delivery
- Set your service types, store hours, coverage, and the responsibilities of your fleet or connected delivery provider. Coordinate preparation and collection through an agreed operating procedure rather than assuming oven sequencing or route optimization.
Choose an implementation that fits your menu
One pizzeria, several locations, and a pizza marketplace have different menu ownership and delivery responsibilities. Compare those responsibilities before selecting channels or custom work.
- Configure first, then identify gaps
- Use the existing ordering products for the customer, merchant, and delivery operation. The open-source frontend is included; Ordering.co manages backend and API by default. Scope specialized kitchen or POS work explicitly.
- Acceptance and ongoing work
- Review a whole pizza, configured half options, a rejected combination, pickup, completed delivery, and an order exception. Assign menu updates, support, app publication, integrations, and maintenance; compare costs by that scope.
Questions to scope your operation
Does Ordering.co support pizza modifiers?
The catalog includes product options and conditions, including half-option configuration. Set up the exact menu and test price and preparation details in your selected customer and merchant channels.
Are half-topping prices calculated automatically as half the whole price?
Do not assume that pricing rule. The product editor offers explicit whole and half prices for the applicable configuration. Verify the resulting total with your menu choices.
Does this replace my kitchen or POS system?
Review the ordering and preparation surfaces you need and any proposed connection. A menu and delivery workflow do not establish compatibility with every POS or kitchen device.
What should I test in a pizza delivery demo?
Bring a pizza with your real sizes and toppings, a disallowed combination, an unavailable ingredient, a pickup order, and a delivery exception. Follow each one from checkout to the kitchen and final handoff.
