A sensible question is: if Square or Stripe already handles payment, what does OrderPay add?
Square or Stripe remains your payment provider. OrderPay handles the operational layer around scheduled orders: recurring or one-off menus, ordering windows, product and shared capacity, pickup or delivery dates, preparation and packing views, subscriptions, and shareable order links.
Flex has no fixed subscription charge and instead charges 1% of eligible paid order value, with an A$0.20 minimum per eligible order. Pro is A$29 per month after a payment-method-backed 14-day trial for an eligible legal business. Provider processing fees are separate.
It is designed for bakeries, weekly meal prep, standard bouquet drops, fixed-price farm boxes, and similar small-batch businesses. An eligible Square or Stripe account in a supported market is required.
Hi Product Hunt 👋
I'm Szymon, and OrderPay started because of my wife's small bakery.
She was already using Square to take payments, but as the bakery grew we kept running into the same problem: taking payment was easy, actually managing preorders wasn't.
She needed rotating weekly menus, order cutoffs, limits on how many of each product she could make, shared production capacity, different pickup dates, and a simple way to know exactly what needed to be baked and packed.
We tried to make the existing Square setup work, but eventually realised the workflow we needed simply wasn't there. So we built it ourselves. That became OrderPay.
Today, OrderPay works alongside your existing payment provider. Square or Stripe still processes the customer's payment, while OrderPay handles the ordering and operational side:
- Regular, rotating and one-off menus
- Product and shared production capacity limits
- Ordering by pickup or delivery date
- Order cutoffs and availability
- Production and packing workflows from confirmed orders
- Recurring product subscriptions
- Shareable order links for custom or one-off baskets
We originally built it around Square because that's what Ember Bakehouse uses. We then expanded it to Stripe, and PayPal support is something we're planning next.
The goal isn't to replace your payment provider. It's to add the ordering, admin and operational tools that businesses often end up managing through spreadsheets, messages, notes and a lot of manual work.
Both Flex and Pro include subscriptions, order links and calendar shopping. Flex charges 1% of eligible paid order value, with an A$0.20 minimum per eligible order. Pro is A$29 per month after a payment-method-backed 14-day trial for an eligible legal business. Payment-provider processing fees are separate.
OrderPay is not limited to one country, but merchants need an eligible Square or Stripe account in a supported market. If you take preorders and need better control over what you sell, when you sell it, how much you can produce and how those orders get fulfilled, that's the problem we're trying to solve.
If it saves you time, removes some admin and makes running your business a little easier, then OrderPay is doing what we built it to do.
I'd genuinely love feedback from bakers, meal-prep businesses, food producers, makers and anyone else running preorder or recurring sales.

And if you're curious where it all started, my wife's micro bakery is running on it every week so we're building OrderPay around problems we actually experience ourselves.
