“Best decision we made in 2024 — direct orders doubled in 6 months.”
San Francisco's restaurant scene blends fine dining in SoMa and Hayes Valley, Mission burrito and taco institutions, modern Chinese in Richmond, and a strong cocktail-and-small-plates scene across North Beach. SF's high commercial rent + California labor stack make every margin point matter; tech-driven diners adopt direct ordering quickly. SF's third-party delivery share is among the highest in the US — DoorDash dominates, with Uber Eats and Caviar as significant secondary players. Fleksa direct ordering recovers commission while keeping platforms for discovery in a city where tech-aware diners actually return to direct domains.
Effective commission lands at 25–30% per order including base commission, marketing fees, and per-order surcharges. For a San Francisco restaurant doing $30k/month in third-party volume, that's $7,500–$9,000/month in fees. Fleksa direct ordering at 0% commission recovers most of that within months of launch.
No — DoorDash, Uber Eats, Caviar own the discovery layer in San Francisco. Diners search those apps first. The right strategy: stay on third-party for new-customer acquisition, drive repeat orders to direct via post-order outreach (thank-you SMS, flyer in the bag). Most restaurants migrate 30–60% of repeat volume to direct within 6 months.
Fleksa Essentials at $99/month includes online ordering, POS, KDS, reservations, and a website. No per-order commission — just card processing at your processor's rate (typically 2.4–2.9%). Setup is free.
Yes — configurable delivery radius by ZIP/postcode or distance, scheduled pickup time slots, address validation against local postal data. Common across multi-location operators setting per-location radius rules.
Fleksa's direct checkout converts at parity — same speed, same payment options (Apple Pay, Google Pay, card, PayPal), same address-autocomplete UX. Restaurants that lose conversion when migrating off third-party usually do so because they don't drive repeat customers to direct; Fleksa's loyalty hooks fix that.
Same day for the ordering page on a Fleksa subdomain. 1–2 days to point your custom domain. Menu import takes 30 minutes if you have a CSV; we offer concierge import if not.
Yes — multi-language menus are supported natively. Customers see the page in their browser language; URL structure preserves SEO across languages.
Fleksa includes loyalty hooks — points, repeat discounts, post-order SMS — designed specifically to migrate third-party first-time customers to direct repeat buyers. The math: every repeat order shifted to direct recovers 25–30% commission permanently.
