General questions

What is PayToEat?

PayToEat is an app for ordering food and drinks from your local restaurants. It provides three types of ordering: Delivery, Take Away and Eat In.

What is Delivery?

Delivery means that you order your food & drinks from the restaurant, together with a delivery time & address, and we will bring you your order at the given place at the requested time.

What is Take Away?

When ordering Take Away, you choose a pick-up time in advance and then arrive at that time at the restaurant, where your food & drinks will be waiting for you all wrapped, so you can immediately take them with you.

What is Eat In?

Eat In means that you are ordering in advance to eat directly at the restaurant, together with picking your preferred time. When you later arrive at the restaurant at this time, your food & drinks will be ready for you and you can enjoy them in comfort immediately. No more waiting until you get the waiter’s attention, waiting for the menu or preparation of your food. No need to wait for your bill - you may have paid already when ordering. Yey!

Which payment methods can I use?

You have 4 options to pay your order:

Is it possible to pay for the order once I get it?

Yes, when in cash. However, only a few partner businesses support it.

Do I pay for my order in advance?

Yes, if you pay with card or even faster via Google/Apple Pay. This saves you considerable time, especially when ordering Eat In, since you can leave immediately after you have eaten your meal.

Can I pay with a meal card?

Yes, assuming it is an Edenred card.

How does it work?

Pick your preferred restaurant in the app and choose meals & drinks from its menu. Vyberieš si tiež spôsob vybavenia Tvojej objednávky (Za stolom, So sebou alebo Donáška), spôsob platby a čas, kedy má byť objednávka pripravená. Po odoslaní objednávky dostaneš obratom potvrdenie od podniku aj s číslom objednávky a výsledným časom, kedy bude objednávka hotová. Pri spôsobe Donáška je objednávka hotová vtedy, keď ju donesie príslušný kuriér na tebou zadanú adresu. Pri spôsobe So sebou je objednávka hotová vtedy, keď ju prevezmeš v podniku uvedením čísla objednávky. Pri spôsobe Za stolom je objednávka hotová vtedy, keď uvedieš v reštaurácii číslo objednávky a následne tam máš prestreté. Select your order type (Eat In, Take Away or Delivery), payment method, and time. Complete your order and you will shortly receive a confirmation from the partner business, including the order id and time when your order shall be ready. If you selected a Delivery, your order is ready when the courier wil arrive at the address you provided. If you selected Take Away, your order is ready when you take your order in the partner business by showing the order id. If you selected Eat In, your order is ready when you show order id to restaurant and then eat at the set table. Enjoy! Once done eating, you are free to leave without a notice as the bill has been already paid. Freedom, yey!
