Do you hate queuing for your lunch? Are you wasting half your lunch hour purchasing your sandwiches or other food orders? LunchMate allows you to pre-order your favourite food from your favourite restaurants and sandwich shops for pick-up or for delivery. Store as many of your favourite restaurants in the app, and quickly switch from one to another. Loading a restaurant also loads in their branding, and latest menus. The LunchMate app also remembers your previous orders for each restaurant so that you can quickly order your favourite food over and over again! Every time you place an order, the order slip is immediately printed out in the appropriate restaurant. You then receive an order confirmation with your order number. When you pick-up your order (or it is delivered) it has the same number taped to it so there are no worries about getting the wrong one! This app also incorporates the LunchMate wallet. This speeds up the ordering process. Each time you make an order the system takes the appropriate amount from your LunchMate account. No more waiting for money transactions - simply place the order and then pick it up at the specified time.
