There are no wrong answers when it comes to indulging food cravings, which is why we’re always pumped to talk about our Multi Vendor Ordering feature. This nifty feature allows diners to order whatever their heart desires from multiple vendors within one location in one transaction. It’s the ideal way to order food and drinks at an event, festival, food hall or stadium. Anywhere with multiple vendors operating can reap the benefits of Multi Venue Ordering.

How Multi Vendor Ordering works for operators

Venues with multiple food and drink operators like Boxpark, Spark: York and New Century Manchester all use Multi Vendor Ordering. Each vendor within these locations controls their menu and offering in the same way they would with Order & Pay. Here’s how it works:

  • The guest orders and pays on their smartphone.
  • Mr Yum splits the order and payment.
  • Each vendor receives its share of the transaction.  
  • The order appears in the individual vendor’s live order screen and prints directly to their POS printer (the vendor can only see what was ordered from their menu). 
  • If using counter pickup, the vendor can send SMS messages to the guest when their items are ready.

How Multi Vendor Ordering works for guests

Guests love Multi Vendor Ordering and how it lets them take full advantage of all the food and drinks a location has to offer. The feature allows guests to:

  • Scan one QR code. 
  • View one menu with everything on offer.
  • Add items from multiple vendors to one cart. 
  • Pay in one transaction (and receive one invoice). 
  • Enjoy a combo of their own creation!  

For example, at Boxpark Shoreditch you could order dumplings from Rainbo as a starter, a jerk chicken box from Rudie's Jerk Shack as the main and end it all off with an ice cream from Soft Serve Society. And don't forget the pint from the main bar.

What guests say about Multi Vendor Ordering
