Help topics

Getting started

How do I get my restaurant live on Zapio Menu?
  1. Start a free trial or book a demo.
  2. Send your menu (PDF, photos or a link), logo and preferred payment methods to our team on WhatsApp.
  3. We build your ordering page, QR codes and payments and send you a preview to check.
  4. Approve it and share your ordering link — most restaurants are live within 24 hours.

You don't need any technical skills — our team does the setup with you.

What do I need to prepare before setup?
  1. Your current menu with prices, categories and add-ons.
  2. Your logo and brand colours (if you have them).
  3. Dish photos — or book our food photography service.
  4. Delivery areas, fees and opening hours.
How do I sign in to my dashboard?
  1. Go to the sign-in page.
  2. Enter the email and password for your account.
  3. Forgot your password? Use “Forgot password?” on the sign-in page or message us on WhatsApp.

Orders & delivery

How will I know when a new order arrives?
  1. New orders appear in your dashboard with a sound alert.
  2. Order notifications can also be sent on WhatsApp.
  3. Accept the order, prepare it and mark it complete — the guest is updated automatically.

Keep the dashboard open on a tablet or phone at the counter so the sound alert is always heard.

How do I set delivery areas and fees?
  1. Tell our team the areas you deliver to and the fee for each, or set them in your dashboard if your plan includes delivery zone control.
  2. Add a minimum order or free delivery above a set amount if you like.
Can I use my own drivers?
  1. Yes. Use your own drivers with the driver app on Growth and Pro, connect a delivery partner, or offer pickup only.

QR codes & tablets

How do I get QR codes for my tables?
  1. We create a QR code for each table, zone or branch during setup.
  2. Download the print-ready files and place them on tables, counters or table tents.
  3. Each order is tagged with the table it came from.

Your QR codes keep working when you change your menu — no reprinting needed.

What if a QR code stops scanning?
  1. Make sure the code is printed large enough (at least 3 × 3 cm) with good contrast.
  2. Clean or replace worn stickers.
  3. Still not working? Message us and we'll send a fresh file.

Payments

Which payment methods can my guests use?
  1. Starter: cash on delivery.
  2. Growth and Pro: Apple Pay, Google Pay, Visa, Mastercard and cash on delivery.
  3. Card payments go through UAE payment gateways and are paid to your account under the gateway's settlement terms.
Does Zapio Menu take a commission on payments?
  1. No. Zapio Menu charges 0% commission. Payment gateways charge their own processing fees.

Marketing & loyalty

How do I run a promotion?
  1. Choose the type of offer — for example BOGO, a coupon code or free delivery over a set amount.
  2. Set the rules: dates, minimum order and usage limits.
  3. Share it with your guests by push, SMS, email or WhatsApp.
How does the loyalty program work?
  1. Guests earn points automatically on every order.
  2. Points are redeemed at checkout for rewards you choose.
  3. See restaurant marketing for tiers, referrals and win-back campaigns.

Account & billing

How do I change my plan?
  1. Message our team on WhatsApp or contact us with the plan you'd like.
  2. We'll confirm the change and any difference in price.
Where can I see plan prices?
  1. All prices are on our pricing page — plans start from AED 5 a day with 0% commission.
