WhatsApp pickup ordering for independent restaurants
Your customers order from you — on WhatsApp.
DiPlato gives your restaurant its own WhatsApp assistant. It answers customer questions, helps diners choose and turns conversations into orders — with online payment before pickup and a screen for every order in your kitchen. Set it up yourself, or with a DiPlato specialist.
Plans from $149/month, plus a one-time Launch Package. DiPlato doesn’t take a percentage of your sales.

Running pickup shouldn’t cost you your customers
Marketplaces take a cut
A percentage of every order goes to the app — and the diner belongs to the app, not to you.
The phone rings mid-rush
Orders taken by phone during service mean mistakes, holds and missed calls.
No payment, no guarantee
Unpaid pickup orders turn into no-shows and wasted food.
How it works
Set up with guidance
Add your menu, hours and payments in one guided workspace — or let a specialist help.
Share your WhatsApp number
Diners message your restaurant’s own number, from your profile, your links or your signage.
Diners get answers, order and pay
Your assistant answers their questions from your current menu and hours, helps them choose and builds the order. Diners pay before they pick up.
Your kitchen gets it
Every paid order appears on your order screen — and prints, if you want it to.
For your diners
From “hi” to paid — in the chat your diners already use
No app to download and no account to create. Diners message your restaurant’s own WhatsApp number, get their questions answered, order from your current menu, pay, and pick up.

Thanks, Maria! Your order is confirmed. We’ll message you here when it’s ready.
The order reaches your kitchen only after payment is confirmed.
Payments
Paid before pickup. Paid out to you.
Diners pay by card in a secure Stripe checkout before your kitchen starts. Order payments go to your restaurant’s own Stripe account, then to your bank on Stripe’s payout schedule.
- The diner sees a small fixed DiPlato fee before paying. DiPlato doesn’t take a percentage of your sales.
- Your restaurant pays Stripe’s card processing fees.
- An order is marked paid only after Stripe confirms the payment.

Pricing
Simple plans. Predictable pricing.
DiPlato doesn’t take a percentage of your restaurant’s sales. Every plan includes your WhatsApp assistant, online payment, your order screen and your DiPlato profile.
Operating capacity is the order volume a plan is designed for — it doesn’t exempt any order from the fee. Going over never stops orders, and there’s no extra charge. The pricing page explains how the fee works.
Plus the Launch Package, $999 one-time · Enterprise for 4+ locations or custom needs

Your marketplace assumption
