Questions Chinese takeaway owners ask.

If yours isn't here, just ask us directly.

How much does totoeat.com cost?+

Just 20 pence per order. No setup fee. No monthly fee. No contract. Your first 30 days are completely free.

On 20,000 orders per year, that's £4,000 per year. Compare to Just Eat's 25% commission plus tablet rental: £5,000+ per year on the same volume.

How does totoeat compare to Just Eat?+

Just Eat takes 25% commission per order, plus charges £30-100+/month for tablet rental, plus a 12-month auto-renewing contract. totoeat.com takes a flat 20p per order. No tablet, no contract, no hidden fees.

For a £20 order, Just Eat takes £5. totoeat.com takes 20p. That's 25x cheaper.

Plus totoeat.com's AI phone receptionist answers in English and Chinese 24/7, so you never miss a 11pm call from a hungry customer.

Can the AI really take orders in Chinese?+

Yes. Our AI is trained specifically for Chinese takeaway menus. It understands English, Mandarin, and Cantonese accents, and recognises dish names like 干炒牛河, 咕咗肉, 糖醋里脊, and 椒盐排骨.

It also understands what "not too spicy" means, handles elderly customers who mix English and Chinese, and can re-confirm an order before sending it to your kitchen.

How long does it take to set up?+

24 hours. Send us your menu and contact details, and we set up your branded ordering website under your own subdomain (e.g. yourrestaurant.totoeat.com).

We also send a professional food photographer to your kitchen — every dish gets a unique photo ID. You're live by tomorrow.

Do I need a tablet or card reader?+

No. Customers order and pay on their own phones via your branded website. Orders come directly to your kitchen display screen.

No tablet rental. No expensive POS system. No monthly contracts. You can keep using your existing card reader for in-person customers.

What about GDPR and data privacy?+

Fully UK GDPR compliant. Customer data is stored in UK data centres, encrypted at rest, and never sold to third parties. You own your customer data.

We can help you set up your privacy policy and data retention rules to stay compliant.

Can I keep using Just Eat alongside totoeat.com?+

Yes, of course. Many of our customers run totoeat.com and Just Eat in parallel, then phase out Just Eat as they see how much they save on each order.

Your branded totoeat.com site is yours to keep forever. There's no exclusivity, no lock-in.

Who is behind totoeat.com?+

We're a small team based in Birmingham, UK, with roots in the UK Chinese takeaway community. We know what 干炒牛河 means. We know why "not too spicy" needs a follow-up question. We built totoeat.com because we couldn't find a single ordering platform that actually understood us.

We're not another foreign SaaS. We're family.

Our team includes second-generation Chinese takeaway owners. We know what "not too spicy" means. We know why 干炒牛河 can't be on a delivery menu without warning. We know the look on a customer's face when you call them back at 11pm to confirm an order.

We built totoeat.com because we couldn't find a single ordering platform that actually understood us. Not Just Eat. Not Uber Eats. Not Deliveroo. So we built one.
