Help with Orders

We have created a web portal that can be accessed by your staff on any device to receive orders. Orders will appear in a queue on a first in first out (FIFO) basis and staff will be required to accept orders and notify guests of the wait time for their food.

To receive orders, simply click on the orders tab of the menu or the dashboard and they will appear there. Once you are in the orders screen, you can click on the orders to view the details and accept the order.

Because we have created a web portal, orders can be received from any of the following devices provided you have access to internet (desktop, laptop, tablet).

Depending on your requirements and your existing POS system, we can explore integration. Additional fees may apply to ensure your POS system is up to date and compatible with our software.

Our goal with TableTime is to help you process orders more efficiently, not interrupt your current systems. The orders that come in on the web portal are designed in a way that requires the staff gate-keeper to accept or reject orders as they come in. At this point, the staff member has the ability to provide customers with an accurate wait period to help manage their expectations.

We encourage customers to order ahead only when they have booked a table or if they have consulted with your staff about your capacity. At this stage we do not allow customers to allocate a time to their order so it is the customer's responsibility to be at the venue within the timeframe they have been provided upon order confirmation.

We encourage our customers to consider the type of establishment they are ordering from and whether you would normally allow your customers to take food off the premises. We enourage customers to contact you about your take-away policy, before ordering.

Once a customer has confirmed their order on the app they are unable to cancel it unless they notify a staff member over the counter.

Customer are unable to edit an order once they have confirmed an order via the app. If they go to the counter to edit or add an item, staff do have the ability to edit the order on the order screen of their account. Editing orders is however at the discretion of the staff member.

Help with Menus

All you need to do is go to the menu tab of your account, select "create menu" and you can easily input menu items including any customizations. If you have any difficulty creating your menu please contact one of our friendly staff members and we would be happy to assist you.

You can edit your menu by going to the menu tab of your account. Here you can select to edit your menu which will allow you to go in and change menu descriptions, prices and imagery. You can also add or remove items from your menu.

We recommend creating a separate menu for specials so that they can be changed and edited on a regular basis via the menu tab of your account. Alternatively, you could create a "specials" category of your menu which can also be easily edited.

You will have the ability to set menu items as unavailable once they have sold out. Once you sync the update, this will automatically set the item as "sold out" on the mobile app as well.

Help with Payments

TableTime exists to solve a customer problem of disruptive dining experiences caused by counter ordering. Therefore, the platform is free to venues. We charge patrons a convenience fee of $1.50 on all orders under $50 and 2.95% of the transaction amount on orders above $50.

TableTime will manage payments from your patrons. We will distribute the funds from all orders into your your nominated bank account at the listed menu price. You will also receive a report to show the breakdown of all orders accepted through TableTime each day.

We will distribute any funds taken through TableTime into your nominated account the following business day. So any transactions taken Friday to Sunday will be deposited into your account the following Monday.

We accept Visa, Mastercard and Amex.

We store the credit card details under the rigorous L1 PCI DSS standard.

This is called a chargeback request. In this scenario we will work with you to determine what the issue was so as to resolve the customers charge back request. If we can not prove to the bank that the customer received a meal and was appropriately charged, the bank may reverse the meal payment. In this case we will reverse the payment from your account or we will reduce your settlement by the same amount.

As we do not have quality control over your food or service, TableTime does not manage refunds. Our Terms instruct patrons to liaise with you directly if they are unsatisfied with their meal. Depending on your refund policy you then have the ability to resolve the issue as you see fit.

Help with Orders

We encourage our customers to consider the type of establishment they are ordering from before ordering ahead. Is it normally easy to find a table or packed to the rafters? We can not guarantee a table will be available before you arrive to the venue unless you have made a booking or contacted the venue prior to arriving. If you choose to order ahead it is very important to make sure you are at the venue when your order is ready for collection.

We encourage our customers to consider the type of establishment they are ordering from and whether you would normally be able to take food off the premises. If you do wish to take-away your meal and you are unsure what the venue's policy is, you will need to consult with the venue staff before placing your order.

We recommend consulting with a staff member before placing your order if you are concerned about your allergies. When placing your order, you can also enter any dietary requirements into the "special instructions" box on the order confirmation screen of the mobile app and the kitchen will receive those instructions when you place your order.

Orders can be cancelled up to the time that the kitchen accepts the order. If you wish to cancel an order after it has been accepted by the venue, it is up to you liaise directly with the venue however, there is no guarantee that they will agree to the cancellation as the kitchen may have already started preparing your meal.

Because we don't have control over the quality of your product, we do not manage refunds for any amount through TableTime. If you are unsatisfied with your meal, please notify the staff member on duty at the venue as you normally would. Depending on the venue's refund policy they will liaise with you to resolve your issue appropriately.

Upon placing your order for the first time, you will be prompted to input your credit card details which will be safely secured by the bank. If you have downloaded the app before needing to place an order, go to the "payments" section under your account and add your preferred method of payment prior to placing your order.

Good news! With TableTime you only need to input your payment information once and each time you login, those details will be stored securely for future orders.

We accept Visa, Mastercard and Amex. We are looking to introduce more payment types over time.

You will have the option to add multiple credit cards if you wish, however the first one you have entered will be set as a default each time you place an order. In order to change Payment Methods select 'Payment' from the menu, there you will find the relevant options.

We store the credit card details under the rigorous L1 PCI DSS standard.
