Hey PH! I'm Tomer, the co-founder of Per Diem. At Per Diem, we believe that first-party ordering is more important than ever for restaurants and cafes. We asked ourselves, why can't local businesses offer their guests the same experience as the Starbucks app? So we built it, and I'm excited to announce the launch of our white-label mobile app builder on Product Hunt! 🌏 You can find us live on the Square App Marketplace, where Per Diem is available to more than two million Square sellers globally. 📱After signing up for a free trial, merchants connect their Square account, and customize the app design with our no-code builder. In a matter of days, the app is published in the App Store. 🚚 In addition to pickup, the app integrates with DoorDash Drive so restaurants can offer professional courier delivery without paying marketplace commissions. ⭐ Square Loyalty is baked right into the experience so that regular customers can earn rewards for their purchases and even pay with points. Our apps are now live in more than 50 stores with an amazing roster of independent operators that includes Masala Wok, Hidden Grounds Coffee, and Chip City! 🥘 ☕ 🍪 Download their apps on iOS and Android today for the easiest way to order, pay, and earn stars! 🚀

@kdeorah Thank you! I've ordered the most from Hummus Inc for sure -- https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hu..... Some of that has to do with proximity hah

@kdeorah tough question they're all amazing :) However, having store credit and loyalty points at your favorite place is pretty dope

Congrats on the launch. wouldn't it be easier for a user to have a single app with all restaurants listed like swiggy or Zomato? (works in India)

@reha_santiago Thanks for the feedback. If you go to a coffee shop or restaurant regularly then a branded app really improves the experience. Starbucks and Sweetgreen have proved this to be the case. Until now, you needed to be a billion dollar franchise to afford building an app. That's no longer the case ;) Zomato is a great way to acquire new customers, but it's a not a great long-term strategy for businesses to be overly dependent on them. From the consumer's perspective, here are a few other benefits: 1. Never have to login and your recent orders and favorites are saved right on the homepage. 2. You get points and other perks when you purchase directly from the store. 3. 3rd party apps are priced higher because participating businesses bake in the commissions to the price. If the argument is that all the businesses are aggregated in one place -- then I think an equal counter-argument could be made that that's too much noise when all you want to order is a cup of coffee from your neighborhood spot. Either way, the future will most definitely include both, but the food + drink businesses that thrive in the digital economy will be driven by robust first-party ordering experiences that are best delivered in a native mobile app.

@reha_santiago @tomermolo exactly! if in the early 2000's businesses were okay to be listed on other websites later they want to have their own website. The same is with apps, they want to build a stronger brand. it doesn't mean they'll leave other apps.

I love how Per Diem targets a prevalent pain point in the restaurant industry - the high commission fees associated with many mobile ordering apps - and leverages Square's existing infra to provide the solution to restaurants, while also improving their customer's experience. Congratulations on the launch!!
