For ghost kitchens· Direct orders. Real catering. Your customers.
Stop renting your customers from delivery apps.
Ghost kitchens lose 25%–35% of every order to commission fees. Dinesurf gives you your own ordering channel, your own customer data, and your own catering and event pipeline, without depending on Glovo or Chowdeck to grow.

The problem
Busy on the apps. Nobody’s customer but theirs.
The orders come in, but through apps that take a cut of each one and keep the customer. Catering leads arrive as voice notes. The people who loved your food last month can’t be reached this month.
Every order pays a cut.
Delivery apps take 20–35% of each order, and the customer’s details stay with them.
- Glovo
- Chowdeck
Nobody hears you launched it.
You can’t reach the people who ordered last month, so every special starts from zero.
- WhatsApp status
Inquiries die in chat.
Dates, party sizes and budgets arrive as screenshots and voice notes, and some never get a quote.
- Spreadsheet
Commission on every order, no list, lost inquiries. Your margin leaks out of all three.
Built for kitchen-first hospitality
Built for kitchens that cook for delivery, catering, and events.
You don't need table management. You don't need a reservation calendar. You need direct orders, paid catering inquiries, private event leads, and a way to keep customers coming back, without paying a delivery app 30% on every order or chasing every catering inquiry over WhatsApp manually.
Dinesurf is the only platform built around how kitchen-first hospitality brands actually operate.
What Dinesurf does for your kitchen
One direct line between your menu and the people who actually want to buy it.
01. Direct ordering
Take orders directly. Keep more of each sale.
Your own ordering website, branded as you. Customers order from you, pay you, and your kitchen sees the order instantly in the Dinesurf Vendor App.
Up to 39% more take-home revenue vs. delivery-app only.
02. Catering & events
Capture catering and private event inquiries automatically.
Catering forms and private event inquiry forms live directly on your site. Every inquiry hits your Vendor App with the date, party size, menu preferences, and customer contact, ready for you to respond, quote, and book.
No catering inquiry slips through WhatsApp. Every lead becomes a tracked opportunity.
03. Brand & storefront
Look like a real brand. Not a listing on someone else's app.
A professional storefront with your menu, your photos, your story. Customers trust what they recognize. Discovery on Google, shareability on WhatsApp, identity that belongs to you, not Glovo.
More direct orders, more repeat customers, a brand that compounds.
04. Vendor App
Manage everything from one app, anywhere.
Open the Dinesurf Vendor App on your phone. Incoming orders, catering inquiries, event bookings, menu updates, customer messages, all from one screen. No laptop, no admin team, no extra hires.
Run your kitchen from a smartphone. Spend time cooking, not coordinating.
05. Guestbook & repeat
Build a customer base that comes back.
Every order and every catering inquiry builds your guestbook. Send WhatsApp campaigns to past customers. Notify them when you launch a new menu, take catering bookings for the holidays, or run a weekend special.
Repeat orders and recurring catering revenue, without paying for the same customer twice.
Catering & events
Fill your calendar with catering and private events.
Catering and event revenue is high-margin, predictable, and often forgotten by ghost kitchens because the inquiry workflow is broken. WhatsApp messages get buried. Inquiries go unanswered. Bookings get lost. Dinesurf fixes the workflow.
- A dedicated catering inquiry form on your site: party size, date, menu, dietary, budget.
- A private event inquiry form for birthdays, corporate dinners, brand launches.
- Instant Vendor App notifications the moment a form is submitted.
- Built-in inquiry tracking: see every lead, response time, and conversion.
More booked events. Faster response times. A catering pipeline that compounds month over month.

Support
Questions kitchen operators ask.
Don't see your question? Book a 15-minute call with our activation team. We work with ghost kitchens every day.
Do I have to leave Glovo or Chowdeck?
No. Most of our partners run Dinesurf alongside delivery apps. Orders through your Dinesurf site keep more revenue in your pocket and build your direct customer relationship.
Who handles delivery?
You arrange delivery the way you do today. Most kitchens use their own riders, a logistics partner like Gokada or Errand, or hand off to a delivery app for specific orders. Dinesurf doesn't take a cut of delivery.
How is this different from just listing on Glovo?
Glovo is a marketplace. You compete with hundreds of other kitchens, you pay 25%+ commission, and the customer belongs to Glovo. Dinesurf gives you your own storefront, your own customer data, and a path to grow without depending on a single platform.
How do customers find my Dinesurf store?
Your link goes in your Instagram bio, your WhatsApp status, your delivery packaging, and your Google profile. Customers who already know your brand order direct. Dinesurf also lists you in our consumer app for new discovery.
What payment methods can I accept?
Card, bank transfer, USSD, and direct debit through our payment partners including Moniepoint.
Your guests, all the way round.
You can be taking orders by this weekend. Basic goes live in under an hour; Pro takes 2–3 weeks for the custom design.
