Make the connection as good as the ordering page

A guest sees the menu and checkout. Your team sees the order arriving, the kitchen preparing it and the sale reaching accounting. Those parts should be considered together when choosing an Ordin alternative.

1. ninito connects both sides of the order

ninito brings the guest’s ordering experience and the restaurant’s daily operation onto one platform. Kiosks, app and webshop connect to POS and kitchen, with a native loyalty programme that follows your own points and reward rules. ninito’s team works with the restaurant behind the website too. Menu and service knowledge support the ordering setup, and help is included when the team needs it during a busy shift.

Keep the cost of a direct order visible. ninito takes 0% payment commission and includes guest SMS without an extra charge. Compare online payment processing and any fixed fee on your real baskets, then include the cost of the separate tools you would otherwise need.

  • Menus and availability managed across your channels
  • Orders connected from checkout to kitchen production
  • Points, levels and rewards built into ninito
  • One restaurant support team in Norwegian and English

2. heapsGO

heapsGO documents branded apps, websites and kiosks, with pickup, delivery and eat-in ordering. OnlinePOS publishes an integration that registers ordering sales in the POS. A separate loyalty description connects points, vouchers and member discounts with ordering and the till.

Make the next visit part of the order

A direct order can start a longer relationship. Connect the guest to a loyalty programme, explain when the food is ready and give them a reason to choose you next time. ninito includes guest SMS and native loyalty in the restaurant platform, so the return visit can follow the same products, points and rewards across your own channels.

Remove the handovers that slow the team down

Before moving from Ordin, map where the menu is maintained, where online payments settle and where guest permissions are stored. Include loyalty balances and existing app links in the plan. A smooth-looking ordering screen can hide a complicated transition if nobody owns these details.

Test an unavailable dish, a refund and the accounting record with every shortlisted supplier. Keep that operational test beside the commitment on price. On ninito Pro and Enterprise, a 100% value guarantee means you do not pay for the system if ninito does not create enough value to cover what you pay for it.

Questions worth asking

Is Ordin a full restaurant POS?

Its public material describes an ordering platform with POS integrations, including ExtendaGO. The complete scope depends on the connected POS.

Can I change ordering without changing the till?

That may be possible when the required integration is supported. Confirm the exact POS version, data flow and responsible support team before committing.
