More detail
Small orders, lots of choices
Bubble tea shops are on high streets and near universities across the UK, from London's Chinatown and Stratford to Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Nottingham and Glasgow. Orders are small but highly customised, which makes phone and counter ordering slow.
Chefzi builds the drink for the customer: required choices for size, sweetness (for example 0%, 30%, 50%, 70% or 100%) and ice level; multi-select toppings such as tapioca pearls, popping boba, jelly and pudding, each with its own price; and milk swaps flagged with allergen notes. A QR code on the counter or a flyer can open your ordering page, and customers choose a collection time, so students can order between lectures and walk in to collect.
Group orders of five or ten drinks fit in one basket. If you also sell waffles, crêpes or desserts, the same menu covers them. A £5 drink loses a large share to marketplace commission; Chefzi is a flat fee. Plus adds SMS and email offers, for example a quiet-afternoon deal.
Chefzi has three plans, per location, ex VAT, billed annually: Starter £9 a month (£12 monthly) for your ordering website and menu, Plus £19 (£22) adding card payments and SMS and email marketing, and Pro £39 (£49) adding your own branded Android app and EPOS. 0% commission ever, the first month is on us, no credit card required, and we get you live in 24–48 hours.
A bubble tea order is a stack of choices
Most drinks need five answers: tea base, size, sugar level, ice level and toppings. In Chefzi each is a modifier group. Make base, size, sugar and ice required single-choice groups, and toppings an optional group with a maximum number of picks, so the cup label the staff read is complete.
Sugar and ice levels
Customers are used to choosing a sugar level and an ice level, so list them the way your shop does, for example regular, less, half and none. Setting them as required choices stops the most common reason for a remake: an order that never said.
Collection first
Cold drinks with ice and toppings can suffer in a delivery bag. Many shops take collection orders on their own page and offer delivery only in a small zone with their own rider. You set collection and delivery hours and zones separately.
Allergens in your own words
Milk, soya and nuts can appear in powders, syrups and toppings. You write the information for each drink and topping and Chefzi shows it; Chefzi does not check it. See the allergen guide.
