Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Postree Catering Management.

How do customers place catering orders?
Customers place orders through a dedicated catering page on your website. They can browse your catering menus, select packages, choose a date and guest count, add any dietary requirements, and submit their order with a deposit — all without needing to call or email.
Can I set minimum order values?
Yes. You can set minimum order values, minimum guest counts, and minimum lead times for catering orders. For example, you can require at least 48 hours notice and a minimum order of €200 before an order can be submitted.
Is it integrated with my POS?
Yes. Catering orders placed online sync directly to your Postree POS. Your team can view upcoming catering orders on the terminal, and revenue from catering is tracked in your sales reports alongside dine-in and takeaway.
Can I create different menus for different events?
Absolutely. You can create unlimited catering menus tailored to different occasions — corporate lunches, wedding receptions, birthday parties, seasonal events, and more. Each menu can have its own items, pricing, and availability rules.
