Do you run a bakery?
An online ordering site for your bakery
On a €12 ticket a platform takes €1.44. Here it takes nothing.
€97 a month, free setup. No lock-in, no commission.
Six details, and your area is open. Nothing is charged until you pay the set-up fee.
Everything is settled the day before. What the customer books before 6pm you knead the next morning at four, and he collects it before nine. An online order, in this trade, is first of all a production forecast.
What commission costs, in your shop
A hundred orders,
average order €12
For a lot of businesses in your trade, that is an ordinary month. At the rate Uber Eats publishes when you deliver yourself, the lowest on the Belgian market, here is how it works out.
On a platform
€144
of commission a month, at 12% on €1,200 of sales
With Food It Be
€97
of subscription a month, whatever your volume
That is €564 staying with you over a year. Are your figures different? Run the numbers with yours.
Nothing forces you off Takeaway or Uber Eats. You can keep the platform and your own site: the platform brings in new customers, your site takes back the regulars, the ones who order every week and cost you the most in commission.
The order placed ahead
Up to fifteen days. The bakehouse knows in the evening what has to come out the next morning, instead of finding out when the shutters go up.
The big pieces get booked
Communion tarts, yule logs, tiered cakes: the customer picks his pickup date inside your own slots. Once you have taken all you can make, you mark the product sold out and it leaves the menu on the spot.
Pickup, nearly always
Delivering bread rarely makes sense. The site runs on pickup only if that suits you, which simplifies everything and takes nothing away.
No lock-in
Try it yourself,
with nothing to install
A demo pizzeria is waiting for you, already filled in, with several years of orders behind it. You walk into it as if it were your own. Nothing to install, nothing to prepare, and nobody chases you afterwards.

What happens next
Six details,
and we type up your menu
-
Your area opens
The name of your business, your company number, your name, your email, your phone. Under a minute, and nothing is charged.
-
You pay your first month
From your area, by Bancontact, card or bank transfer. The setup itself is not charged to you. That payment is what starts your site being built.
-
You send us a photo of your menu
We type it up for you, however long it is. You check it and correct it before anything goes live.
-
Your site opens in your name
On your own .be domain. If you ever leave, you keep it.
Once you have paid, your site is already standing. Three things are left to set: your online payment account, the mailbox on your domain, and your menu, which we key in. The rest happens on its own.
What you can set
Fitted to the way
you actually work
- Ordering up to fifteen days ahead
- Pickup slots worked out from your hours and your holidays
- Closed on Mondays, and it looks after itself
- Pickup only, or pickup and delivery
- Sold out in two clicks, and the product leaves the menu
Those settings are the ones for your trade. Your dashboard holds more than a hundred, across fifteen screens: the menu and its options, opening hours, delivery, promotions, loyalty, your pages, your staff. You change them yourself, without asking anyone, and the site follows straight away.
What is not there
Two gaps,
said before you sign
Ordering software always promises everything. Here is what this one does not do yet for your trade, and what does the same job in the meantime. Better read here than on a Saturday at seven.
No quota per date
Twenty yule logs a day is not something a counter settles. Once the twenty are gone, you mark the product sold out and it leaves the menu at once, for everybody.
No set menus
An assortment sells as a product with its own price and size, not as a deal where the customer picks from three separate lists.
The price, in full
It is all written down,
nothing gets added later
The setup
Free. It covers typing up your menu, your .be domain name and going live. You pay nothing to start.
The subscription
€97 excluding VAT a month, whatever your order volume. No commission on your sales.
The payment fees
They go to your payment provider, not to us. With Mollie, in Belgium: €0.39 per Bancontact payment, €0.25 + 1.80% on a European consumer card.
The term
There is none. You stop from your area whenever you like, and your site stays online until the end of the month already paid for.
The first month is a month like any other: €97 excluding VAT, or €117.37 including VAT. See the pricing in detail.
Food It Be is a brand of ZIXAR, in Carnières, Belgium. Your data stays in Europe.
The questions we get
Three straight answers
I am closed on Mondays. Is the site going to take orders anyway?
No. Your closing days are set once and for all, and the dates concerned never appear in the pickup calendar. Annual holidays are blocked the same way.
I cannot make more than twenty yule logs a day in December.
There is no automatic quota per day, and it is better said at once. What you do have is sold out in two clicks: the twenty logs gone, you mark the product sold out and it disappears from the menu there and then. It is a move you make, not a counter that makes it for you.
Does the customer have to pay online to book?
You decide, and the setting works per service mode: online payment, cash and card terminal, separately for pickup and for delivery. Six switches in all. A bakery will often set pickup to “payment at the counter allowed” and let the customer choose.
No lock-in
