What is Slerp and how does it work?

Slerp is an online ordering platform designed specifically for the hospitality industry. We sit behind the scenes, powering your own branded checkout so that you can directly take orders from your customers whilst owning the data. Think of us as a Shopify for restaurants, with reliable and efficient delivery.

‍

Slerp enables you to:

• Create, manage, and customise your online ordering channel on web and via your own app.

• Deliver efficiently to your customers with automatic courier assignment with courier partners such as Uber (we are the first UK platform partner), Stuart, and Addison Lee. We track and monitor all deliveries end-to-end and have the best-in-class customer support handling (92% CSAT score).
• Accept a range of order types all from a single checkout, including Click & Collect, ASAP delivery, scheduled same-day delivery, and pre-orders such as larger catering orders for future days.
• Grow your orders using customer data, loyalty programs, discounts and CRM, all from one platform.

For head office staff, all of Slerp’s features are accessed through one dashboard, which means you don’t have to log into multiple systems.

For on-premise staff, orders are received via our Partner App (IOS or Android) which operates very similar to marketplaces. We also integrate with the likes of Deliverect, Otter and Urban Piper (coming soon) if you prefer to not use our App.

How is Slerp different from marketplaces?

Unlike marketplaces, you get to own your branded checkout, obtain rich customer data, and shape your customer experience using your own loyalty program and CRM. Marketplaces are also tightly coupled to on-demand delivery orders. With Slerp, you are open to a variety of order types that can be customized easily for each and every location. With our comparatively low commission structure, you also will be able to improve your margins and add more money to your pocket.

Why do I need a direct ordering solution?

Typically we work with businesses that already have online ordering via marketplaces. This may be contributing anywhere between 10-80% of the total business turnover. Such businesses are looking to diversify their revenue streams, take back control, and make more margin.

We also have many businesses come to us who may be using an existing ordering solution that is not fit for purpose for their requirements. We work with businesses in many shapes and sizes – you may have 1 location, or you may be a multi-site franchised business with 150 locations. The Slerp platform is flexible to suit a variety of setup configurations.
