Branch Wise Payment Account

Set up separate payment gateway accounts for different branches. Allow each restaurant/grocery branch to have its own designated payment gateway account to manage and process online transactions specific to that branch.

Individualized Payment Processing

With branch-wise payment gateway accounts, each restaurant branch can have its own distinct payment processing capabilities. This means that transactions made at a particular branch will be processed through its dedicated payment gateway account.

Financial Autonomy

Each branch can independently manage its transactions, settlements, and financial activities associated with online payments, ensuring a clear separation of financial data and accountability.

By utilizing branch-wise payment gateway accounts, restaurants operating under a franchise model can streamline payment processes. 

New Updates 

 

Branch filter in Order Summary Report

This new feature allows users to filter and view order data specifically for a selected branch within their report. Analyze and understand order performance, trends, and metrics on a branch level.

Branch-Level Data Analysis

Branch-Level Data Analysis: The Branch filter enables users to focus on a specific branch or a group of branches when generating the Order Summary Report. By selecting a particular branch, users can access detailed insights into the order data related to that specific location.

Performance Evaluation

With the Branch filter, users can assess the performance of each branch individually. They can compare order volumes, revenue, average order values, or any other relevant metrics across different branches, providing valuable insights to assess the success and impact of each branch’s operations.

Comments field for Rider App Reject Action

We have implemented a comments field in the Rider App that allows riders to provide comments when rejecting a ride. This feature enables riders to provide specific reasons or additional information for declining a ride, improving communication between riders and the dispatch team. It helps in better understanding rider availability and optimizing ride assignments.

Rider Portal | Assigned Tasks Identifier

To enhance visibility and provide quick information about the workload of each rider, we have included an identifier in front of the rider’s name. This identifier displays the number of rides currently assigned to the rider along with their ID.  This way, both the restaurant team and riders can easily track the number of active tasks assigned to each rider, facilitating better workload management and task prioritization.
