Delivery On Demand

JTPets — Wed, 25 May 2022 13:12:58 GMT

You continue to advance the options available to us as sellers, and I thank you. Recently you introduced delivery integration and more recently you offered free delivery as a promo of this service.

This program continues to interest me, what I need to be able to utilize it is the ability to press a button and say "send me a driver" for an order on demand.

We have strange operating hours due to our location in a shared space (Farmers Market) and customers will order from us in a multitude of ways, etransfer for payments, invoices for delivery,

We offer delivery 7 days a week (even when closed) when i'm closed to in store shopping but offer local delivery - I'd show up and have 3 orders to dispense and maybe I want to send 2 with a driver and do one myself.

Having access to a "dispatch" system where I can input the needs of the order:

When

Where

Who etc

and request a driver for this order would allow me to use it while still offering my own delivery when available.

It appears at the moment, square doesn't have this option.

I recommend you check Doordash and their feature "request delivery" when you need a driver.

Yeah this is why I am requesting it as a feature 🙂 but thanks for the tip I wasn't aware DoorDash had that feature - and it doesn't have to be a doordash order?

it will be your own order. Doordash would send a driver to pickup and drop off only. I imagine square will be integrating this feature as its already a partner with doordash.
