Cover for release notes of a food delivery software provider

Happy to announce the latest updates in all-in-one food and grocery delivery platform – Playfood. Each month our team improves the apps according to partner’s comments, business objectives and end-users requests. In the February release we’ve improved phone number entry for customers and added some features and UX updates to a customer application field. But let’s discuss the features below in more details!


1. Advanced promo-notifications in Onde Passengers app


With this feature you can create marketing push notifications on Firebase and send them to the Onde Customer App to promote a food delivery marketplace and exact restaurants. Firebase has pre-made templates, where you can choose an image, audience (apple/android customers), date of campaign, link it with the exact screen and preview the whole push notification. If customers click on a notification, they will open the correct deep-linked screen.


How to use it for your business:

  • promote your newly launched business vertical – food delivery marketplace;

  • restaurant which offer discounts;

  • promote upcoming restaurants;

  • share promo-codes/discounts for the 1st order to transfer customers from taxi app to delivery app.

Playfood’s demo apps are built with efficient UX/UI design and provide a really pleasant customer experience. We `re ready to help you launch a meal or grocery delivery business immediately. But if you have marketing, regional or industry-specific requirements, we are here to customize it for you.


Our designers team will assist to create a visual design of your applications and apps and customize all notifications and copy.

3. Different modes for split payments in Stripe system


Playfood’s system now offers two ways of linking a vendor with a Stripe payment sub-accounts for split card payments in the admin panel:

  • manual mode (create and link sub-account by ID manually);

  • automatic mode (create stripe sub-account on saving of vendor legal details automatically).

So, now you can create Stripe sub-accounts for your vendors manually or automatically, or in general configure some vendors without any splits.

  • cover payment system transactions and other fees on behalf of customers;

  • charge customers extra money for your service and make additional profit.


Secondary, can use this feature to direct the flow of orders from cash to online payment for example: the customers will prefer online payment if a cash option is more expensive.
