Frequently Asked Questions

Reseller Basics

What is eHungry’s reseller program?

Our reseller program provides a turnkey private label online ordering solution for your business. As a reseller, you can launch an online ordering service under your own brand and sell it to your restaurant clients alongside any other products & services (credit card processing, marketing solutions, etc.).

What is the cost?

We charge a per order fee based on order volume. Please contact us for more details. Note: If your restaurant chooses to integrate with 3rd party services such as payment providers or 3rd Party Delivery, then those companies charge their own fees. Of course, your restaurants can also just handle payment at the time of pickup or delivery.

Do you offer discounted rates on the per order fee?

Yes, once you reach certain volumes, we offer reduced rates. Please contact us for more details.

What fees can I charge restaurants for online ordering?

That is completely up to you. For example, you could bill them a $100 setup fee and 7% per order. Or some kind of monthly fee and flat per order charge. You'll just want to make sure you charge enough to cover any eHungry fees.

Does eHungry bill our restaurants?

No. You are responsible for billing and collecting any fees from your restaurants. However, we do provide you with the order breakdown/summary for you to use in your billing, as well as an invoice generator tool. You then handle payments however works best for you.

Do I need to sign a contract?

We do not require any long-term contracts. We only require agreement to our terms of service, privacy policy and a mutual non-disclosure agreement.

Why do I need to provide my credit card at signup?

We require a credit card at signup to have on file for any usage. We won’t charge your card until your clients get orders, then we only charge our fee at the end of each billing month.

Am I able to get a demo account to show off to clients?

Definitely! We can provide a demo account (or you can setup your own) so you incur no fees for those test orders to show off to your clients.

Do you provide support?

We provide support to you, the Reseller. We do not provide support directly to your restaurants (since then they would see the eHungry name). If something comes up that you can't handle, just let us know and we'll be happy to help. That said, we do provide full access for you (and your restaurants, if you'd like) so you can self-serve and manage everything yourself at any time.

In what countries and languages will the system support?

Our online ordering system can be used for restaurants that are located in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico & Guam. The system is provided in English, although you can enter the restaurant's online ordering menu in any language.

In what currency does eHungry charge its fees?

Our fees are charged in US dollars. If you are a reseller outside of the United States, your actual fees may be slightly different due to the exchange rate. Please note: The exchange rate is handled at the time of billing by your credit card, and your credit card may charge additional fees. We also don't include any applicable taxes in our prices so if your locality requires it, any taxes will need to be paid by you.

Program Features

What payment providers do you integrate with?

For payment processing, we integrate with Authorize.net, CardConnect, Stripe, Square, Paypal and over 70 other payment gateways. Note: Depending on the processor, there may be an additional per transaction fee for online payment processing.

Do you integrate with any POS Companies?

Do you offer integration with any 3rd Party Delivery Providers? What are the costs?

We integrate with Shipday (www.shipday.com) for 3rd party delivery providers such as DoorDash and UberEats. You would need to sign up for your own account at Shipday. Shipday will have their own fees.

Can my client use their own domain or sub-domain?

Yes. We allow each account to use a full custom domain like www.myrestaurant.com (if they want to use the online ordering as their main site) or a sub-domain like order.myrestaurant.com (if they already have a website/landing page and plan to link to the online ordering site directly).

Is there a fee for hosting the website or the SSL certificate?

We provide the hosting for the restaurant ordering sites and the SSL certificate at no additional costs. You or your client simply provide the domain and we will take care of the rest.

Do you offer a landing page for my reseller account with a list of my restaurants?

You would be responsible for the setup and hosting of your own landing page, if you would like one. You will need to setup a custom sub-domain with your own URL for your account overall reseller account. This is how you keep accounts under your own label and provides you a way to offer links to your clients with your domain.

Does your system work with multi-location restaurants?

Yes, we have tools for multiple locations and franchises that make it easy to setup and manage all of your clients. Just give us a shout and we’ll be glad to provide additional details.

Can I customize the online ordering website design?

Our online ordering system is template based, but you are able to add customization with a welcome message, a header image, restaurant logo, menu item pictures and more. We do offer some advanced customization options as well.

Does the system support Coupons, Discounts or Specials?

Yes. You can create pretty much any type of coupon, special or discount you want -- $ off, % off, free items, etc. Plus, you can add restrictions such as having to purchase certain items or meet certain requirements in order to use them.

Restaurant Management

Do we have to setup the restaurant? Or can eHungry setup my client’s menu, etc.?

Typically you would handle the setup of your restaurant, but we can assist if you get stuck with something. If you need us to do the full setup, we can do that for you. There is a $79 menu setup fee per location for this service.

What do I need to setup a restaurant?

We offer a setup form that you can leverage with the main questions to get them up and running. In addition, you'll need their menu with prices. Besides that, you just need to be able to enter data into the online manager and you're good to go!

How long does it take to get a restaurant client up and running?

This depends on how quickly you can gather the required information and the complexity of the restaurant’s menu. Our team can typically have a restaurant completed within 1 to 2 business days.

Can my client have access to their restaurant account / dashboard?

Yes, we offer tools that allow you to give your client full or limited access to their account.

How can the restaurant receive their orders?

Restaurants can receive orders multiple methods, including:
  • Order manager app (iOS or Android) with optional printing via Star Micronics printers
  • Windows software with automatic printing (thermal, impact, laser, inkjet, etc)
  • Web based app
  • Fax
  • Email
  • Text message
  • Webhooks
