For customers

Three steps. No phone calls. No line confusion.

  1. Step 1

    Browse approved local restaurants

    Find approved local restaurants near you and see real menu prices. No markup, no inflated numbers, no surge pricing — what the restaurant charges is what you pay.

  2. Step 2

    Order pickup and pay

    Place your order at app.octofood.app and pay through Stripe. Your card is authorized at checkout and charged only once the restaurant accepts your order.

  3. Step 3

    Show your PIN and pick up

    Track your order in real time and get a secure pickup PIN. Walk in when your food is ready and show the PIN at the counter. No phone calls, no line confusion.

No hidden customer fee

The math is on every receipt.

You pay the restaurant's real menu price plus tax. OctoFood adds no hidden customer platform fee, and your card is charged only after the restaurant accepts your order.

Standard card + platform cost (5% all-in)− C$0.66
Small Order Fee− C$0.30

The C$0.30 Small Order Fee is a merchant settlement line item, not a customer-facing service fee. Customers always pay the menu price. The 5% is all-in — Stripe's standard processing is absorbed inside it.
