WHAT WHATSAPP ORDER ADDS

Orders where you already chat.

01

WhatsApp order button

An Order on WhatsApp button appears on your checkout page below the purchase form. Customers tap it and WhatsApp opens with the order message ready to send.

02

Full order in the message

Every item with quantity and price, selected addons, special instructions, subtotal, tax, discount and the order total are formatted into the message automatically.

03

Customer and service details

The message carries the customer's name and phone, the order date, the chosen service type, the requested delivery or pickup time and, for delivery, the address entered at checkout.

04

Mobile and desktop aware

On phones and tablets the button opens the WhatsApp app; on desktop it opens WhatsApp Web. Customers install nothing new.

05

WhatsApp-only mode

Choose Both Checkout and WhatsApp Order, or WhatsApp Order Only, which hides the payment form and purchase button so every order arrives as a chat.

06

Custom button text

Set the button label to match your tone, such as Order on WhatsApp or Send my order.

07

Pre-filled for signed-in customers

Name and phone are filled from the customer's account when they are logged in, so repeat customers just tap and send.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

A few things to know.

Is a WhatsApp Business account required?
No. Orders are sent to whatever WhatsApp number you enter in the settings through a standard WhatsApp chat link, so a personal number receives them just as well. A WhatsApp Business account is recommended because it gives you labels and quick replies for handling orders.
What information is included in the WhatsApp message?
Every item with its quantity, price, selected addons and special instructions, then subtotal, tax, discount and total. Above that sit the customer's name and phone, the order date, the service type, the requested time and, for delivery, the address entered at checkout. The message is pre-formatted so your team can read it at a glance and start cooking.
Do customers need to install anything?
No. On a phone the button opens the WhatsApp app the customer already has; on a desktop it opens WhatsApp Web, in both cases with the order message ready to send. In the default Both mode the standard checkout is still there for customers who prefer to pay online.
Can I confirm orders through WhatsApp?
Yes. The order arrives as a normal chat, so you can reply to confirm, ask about an allergy or quote a delivery time. Note that a WhatsApp order is not saved as an order in RestroPress, so if you want it in your order list and reports, enter it there yourself or ask the customer to use the standard checkout.
