Software for pizzerias: takeaway and delivery managed in one place
Pizzeria software that does one thing and does it well: it collects takeaway and delivery orders, written by the customer, and lines them up for you with time, variants and address. Free up to 20 orders a month, no commission on sales.
- 20 orders a month free
- No credit card required
- Zero commission on sales
The problem
On Friday night orders come from three directions
The phone rings while you're stretching dough, on WhatsApp there's an order spread over four messages to copy out, at the counter someone asks "how long?". Every order gets transcribed by hand, and by hand you make mistakes: the forgotten half-and-half, the pickup time promised off the top of your head, the address with no house number. You don't need a system that does everything: you need orders to arrive already written.
How you solve it
With your online pizzeria
- Takeaway and delivery in the same list, with a notification when an order comes in
- Doughs, sizes, extras and ingredients to leave out: the customer picks them and they arrive written correctly
- The customer picks a pickup time from the slots you open, with a cap on pizzas per slot
- Delivery zones drawn on the map, each with its own fee and minimum order
- Accept, decline and update the status in a tap: the customer sees it and doesn't call back
- No commission on sales: free up to 20 orders a month, no credit card required
A concrete example
Saturday night, 70 pizzas without a single slip of paper
You open two slots of 35 pizzas: 7:30–8:30pm and 8:30–9:30pm. By 7pm you already have 22 orders in the list, each with dough, extras and pickup time or delivery address. When the first slot fills up it closes itself and customers see the second. The phone rings half as much, and nobody tells you "but I asked for no onion".

Frequently asked questions
Is it a complete management system for the pizzeria?
No, and it doesn't try to be. Mobee manages online takeaway and delivery orders: menu, variants, pickup times, delivery zones, order status, tickets and takings reports. Till, accounting and stock stay with the tools you already use. If you're after a system to replace your cash register, Mobee isn't it; if you want to stop taking orders over the phone, it is. Everything it manages
Is the pizzeria software really free?
Yes, up to 20 orders a month: no credit card and no expiry. Past that threshold you pick an order package or a fixed plan, but Mobee never keeps a percentage of your sales. See the full price list
Can I handle half-and-half, doughs and left-out ingredients?
Yes: doughs and sizes are variants, extras are add-ons, and the customer notes what to leave out. The ticket arrives already written. If Saturday's rush is your main problem, also read how to handle the rush with online ordering for pizzerias.
Can I keep using Just Eat, Glovo or Deliveroo?
Yes. Many pizzerias keep the platforms to get discovered and use Mobee for returning customers, who then order with no commission. See how to move customers from the platforms to your own channel.
Do I need a computer or a tablet in the pizzeria?
No: you see orders on the smartphone you already have. If you want a printed ticket you can connect a network printer or use the Mobee device with built-in printer.
