Build your first menu

With your account created, the next step is building your menu. It takes three steps: create categories, add products, and bring it all together in a menu. In under an hour, your digital menu will be ready to appear in your online store.

1. Create your categories​

Go to Store → Product Categories in the panel.

Categories are the sections of your menu: they're how customers browse. Create 2 or 3 to start (for example, "Burgers", "Drinks", and "Desserts"). You can add more later, anytime.

2. Add your products​

Go to Store → Products and add each item with:

  • A clear, short name (e.g., "Double Cheeseburger").
  • A photo of the actual product.
  • A price.
  • A description with the main ingredients.

Two features worth using from day one:

  • Dietary badges: mark a product as vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free, sugar-free, or nut-free. Customers see the badge right on the menu and can decide without having to ask. Items containing alcohol can be marked 18+.
  • Combos: build a combo and the menu automatically shows an "Includes:" list with everything that's part of it.
Good photos sell

Use natural light, a clean background, and the real dish, not a generic stock image. A well-shot photo taken with your own phone already makes an item far more likely to be ordered.

3. Put the menu together​

Go to Store → Menus and create your first menu:

  1. Give it a name (e.g., "Main menu").
  2. Add the categories and products you created.
  3. Drag items to set the order. Put your best sellers at the top.
  4. Choose a cover image to give the menu the look and feel of your business.

You can have more than one menu (one for lunch and another for dinner, for example) and choose which one appears in your store.

Start small

You don't need to add everything at once. Start with your 10 to 15 best-selling items, publish, and fill in the rest over time. Any change shows up in your store instantly.
