DoorDash, Uber Eats & Skip: how restaurant delivery integrations work

DoorDash, Uber Eats, Skip — here’s how delivery integrations actually work with your POS: menu sync, one unified queue, dispatch, and ditching the tablet farm.

June 17, 2026

Plenty of restaurants run a separate tablet for every delivery app — one for DoorDash, one for Uber Eats, one for Skip — and re-key each order into the POS by hand. Delivery integrations fix that by piping every order into a single system. Here’s how they work.

The problem: the tablet farm

A tablet per marketplace means staff re-typing orders, menus drifting out of sync, and tickets getting missed at peak. It’s slow, error-prone and a headache to keep consistent across channels.

How an integration works

A proper integration connects your POS to each marketplace in both directions. Your menu syncs out from one source of truth; incoming orders flow back into one unified queue and straight onto your kitchen display; status and availability updates sync; and for your own direct orders, on-demand couriers can be dispatched.

Direct ordering vs marketplaces

Integrations make the marketplaces manageable, but they still charge commission. Pair them with commission-free direct ordering to protect margin — and read the real math on delivery commissions to see why that balance matters.

What is menu sync?

Your POS menu is the single source of truth, pushed out to each marketplace so prices and items stay consistent everywhere without manual updates.

Do I still need a tablet for each delivery app?

No — native integrations remove the tablet farm by unifying every marketplace order into one queue and your kitchen display.

How does courier dispatch work?

For your own direct orders, on-demand couriers can be dispatched automatically, so you can offer delivery without hiring your own drivers.
