How does the 'pickup time' work?

When you add items to your cart, you can choose to pick up your order 'ASAP' or schedule it for a later time. 'ASAP' uses the restaurant's average preparation time to estimate when your food will be ready. If you schedule your order, you can select a specific day and time that fits the restaurant's operating hours.

Platesready is transparent about costs. The price you see in your cart is what you pay, plus any tip you choose to add. Our platform is supported by a low 5% commission from our restaurant partners, not by extra fees charged to you.
