Your regulars order from icons
The evening begins with a tap on a food app, not a search for a link. If your restaurant is not an icon on that screen, the order starts somewhere else.
Your own app · Owncart branded mobile app
Your name on your guest's home screen.
For restaurants that want more than a link: a mobile app in your own name, with the food-app experience guests already know. Browse, order, pay, track and earn points, all on the same Owncart menu, order board and KOT you already run.

Quick answer
What is a restaurant's own app from Owncart?
Owncart builds a mobile app in your restaurant's name, connected to Ownchat and OwnRewards, so guests browse, order, pay, track and use reward points like a food delivery app. It runs on the same menu, order board and KOT flow as Owncart: no second system. Setup is ₹74,999 one-time, built in about 4 weeks, plus your Owncart, Ownchat and OwnRewards subscriptions. Store listing time depends on Google and Apple approval.

The problem
Dinner starts with a thumb on a home screen, and your restaurant is not there.
Someone else's app keeps the guest
On a delivery app the guest's number, their history and their next order belong to the app. You cooked the food and never learned her name.
A link fades
A website or WhatsApp link works the day it is shared. Weeks later, with no icon to tap and no points waiting, even a happy guest forgets where it was.

How it works
From a demo to your icon on the home screen
- 1
Book an app demo
Tell us about your restaurant: outlets, POS and what guests order most. We walk through the app and the subscriptions it runs on.
- 2
Your menu becomes the app
The app uses your Owncart menu, live order board and KOT flow. Nothing is typed twice, and a connected Petpooja or Positeasy stays the source of truth.
- 3
We build it in about 4 weeks
Your name, logo and colours on the icon and inside the app, with OwnRewards points and Ownchat messages wired in.
- 4
Listed on both stores
We submit the app to the Play Store and App Store under your brand. Listing time depends on Google's and Apple's review.
- 5
Guests download, service stays the same
App orders land on the same board as WhatsApp, website and table QR orders, and print the same KOT.
Already on Owncart? Your menu, orders and guest list carry straight into the app. New here? Start with the Restaurant plan and add the app when you are ready.
What your guests get
The food-app experience, under your name
Browse, order, pay and track
The flow guests already know: a menu with photos, a cart, UPI or card, and live order status, all inside an app that carries your name.
Points and offers inside the app
OwnRewards shows their points balance, coupons and referral rewards right where they order, so the next visit earns something.
Updates and win-back messages
Order updates arrive through Ownchat. When a regular goes quiet, a win-back message brings them back to your app.
What you get
The same Owncart you run today, with your icon on top
One menu, one board, one KOT
The app runs on your Owncart menu, live order board and POS KOT flow. No second system, nothing typed twice.
Your brand on both stores
Listed on the Play Store and App Store under your restaurant's name, with your icon and your colours.
Every guest's number and history
Each app order saves the guest and what they ordered to your own list, ready for Ownchat and OwnRewards.

The app is where the reward points live. This 23-second reel shows the message that sends her there.
- A guest orders once, then goes quiet.
- Ownchat sends a win-back message with an OwnRewards offer.
- She comes back to your app, and the order lands on the same board as every other.
Who uses it
Three restaurants, one icon each
The regular orders from the home screen
No link to find, no chat to scroll. She opens your icon, picks her usual and pays by UPI. The ticket beeps on the board like any other.

A brand with no front door gets one
With no dine-in, the app is the front door. Guests browse, pay and watch the status move to out for delivery, all under your name and your icon.

A win-back message lands, and so does an order
A regular has gone quiet, so Ownchat sends an OwnRewards offer. She taps through, orders in the app and her points update with the order.

Link or icon?
Your ordering website and WhatsApp, compared with your own app
| Website + WhatsApp (Restaurant plan) | Your own app | |
|---|---|---|
| Where guests find you | A link in WhatsApp or the browser; regulars can add the website to their home screen (PWA) | Your icon on the home screen, installed from the Play Store or App Store |
| Menu, board and KOT | Your Owncart menu, live order board and POS KOT | The same menu, board and KOT; no second system |
| Points and offers | Add OwnRewards for points, coupons and referrals | OwnRewards points and offers inside the app |
| Messages to guests | Order updates on WhatsApp; campaigns and win-back with Ownchat | Order updates and win-back messages through Ownchat |
| Price | Included in the Restaurant plan: ₹10,000 per outlet per year, 0% commission | ₹74,999 one-time, plus Owncart, Ownchat and OwnRewards subscriptions |
| Time to launch | Start free today with a digital menu | Built in about 4 weeks; listing depends on Google and Apple approval |
Start with the Restaurant plan; add the app when you want your own icon. Both land on the same board, so nothing changes in the kitchen. See the ordering website →
“We take orders directly on WhatsApp. We've completely eliminated commission charges charged by Swiggy and Zomato.”
Tositos takes orders direct on WhatsApp, synced to Petpooja. Your app runs on that same Owncart menu, board and KOT.
Pricing
The app is one-time. What it runs on is a flat yearly fee.
Restaurant plan
₹10,000 per outlet / year
Ordering on WhatsApp, your website and QR with POS sync. Add your own app for ₹74,999 one-time, plus Ownchat and OwnRewards, or take all three subscriptions as the Own Suite at ₹25,000 per outlet per year.

How long does a restaurant app take to build?
We build and deliver the app in about 4 weeks. Listing on the Play Store and App Store then depends on Google's and Apple's review time.
What does the app cost, all in?
₹74,999 one-time for the app, plus your Owncart, Ownchat and OwnRewards subscriptions. The Own Suite bundles those three at ₹25,000 per outlet per year; Instagram, SMS and RCS add ₹10,000 a year. GST extra; payment gateway fees apply.
Do I need Ownchat and OwnRewards as well as Owncart?
Yes. The app runs on Owncart for the menu and orders, Ownchat for order updates and win-back messages, and OwnRewards for points and offers, so those subscriptions continue alongside the one-time setup.
Can guests still order on WhatsApp, the website and table QR?
Yes. The app is one more channel. Every order, whether from the app, WhatsApp, your website or a table QR, lands on the same live order board and prints the same KOT.
Does the app work with my Petpooja or Positeasy POS?
Yes. The app uses your Owncart menu and order flow, so a POS already connected to Owncart keeps working: the menu syncs from Petpooja or Positeasy and app orders print as KOTs. See POS and KOT sync.
Isn't the ordering website already an app?
Regulars can add your ordering website to their home screen like an app (PWA) without the Play Store. The branded app goes further: a listing in the Play Store and App Store under your name, with OwnRewards points and Ownchat messages built in. See the ordering website.
Where does the guest data from the app go?
To your own guest list. Every app order saves the guest's number and order history in Owncart, not in a third-party app, and Ownchat and OwnRewards work from that list.
