OrderIT
Where OrderIT fits
OrderIT suits operators interested in an ownership-led POS model, with ordering, inventory, and supplier workflows from one provider. For restaurants and takeaways that want retention, loyalty, and AI ordering working as one, Flipdish is the better fit.
POS and Restaurant operations
One platform, with growth built in
OrderIT combines online ordering, POS, inventory and reporting from one provider, with loyalty and marketing services advertised. Flipdish's edge is Loyalty 360: omnichannel loyalty built into the POS, with automated marketing that kicks in from the first order.
A 10.1-inch customer screen at the front of the POS lets guests type in their mobile number to create a profile on the spot, earn points or redeem them. That data feeds straight into web and app, powering win-back offers, AI upselling and customer feedback.
Optional add-ons include KDS, inventory, staff rota, food-safety tools and an AI Phone Agent that answers every call.
Built to win direct orders
Flipdish is built to drive direct orders, not just take them. Every customer is tied to one mobile number across your websites, mobile apps, kiosks and in-store loyalty, so you own the relationship and the data.
- Omnichannel loyalty: Loyalty 360 runs on one phone number across web, app, kiosk and in store. Not just an email list.
- Automatic win-back offers: we identify customers who have not ordered in a set number of days and send them an offer automatically to bring them back.
- AI upselling at checkout: the familiar marketplace "add this too" moment, with baskets up to 12% larger.
- Customer feedback app: see how guests rate you and nudge happy ones toward better Google reviews.
- Delivery partners, integrated: trusted fleets across the UK, so direct orders arrive end to end.
OrderIT offers a branded website and iOS and Android apps, with customer-data ownership advertised for direct ordering. Flipdish makes direct ordering the whole point, with the tools to bring customers back.

One platform covers your POS, branded website and app, and payments. Loyalty and retention SMS come with Web & App. Add kiosks, KDS, the AI Phone Agent and AI Marketing only when you need them.
OrderIT
Ownership first,then confirm terms
OrderIT advertises a pay-once, own-forever POS and 0% ordering commission on selected plans, subject to terms. Zero commission is not zero total cost, so request the purchase price, written ownership terms, processing charges and any other fees.
Which costs less? It depends on what you use. Count what each package includes: loyalty, SMS retention, a branded app, onboarding and support. Ask both vendors for a written quote covering your locations, hardware, payment volume and add-ons, then see the full Flipdish pricing.
