Zomato, the popular food delivery app, has introduced a new feature that makes group ordering easier than ever. In a recent tweet, Zomato’s CEO Deepinder Goyal shared details about this new feature, which allows multiple people to add items to a single order seamlessly.
With this feature, users can now share a link with their friends or family members, and everyone can add their desired dishes to the cart directly. This eliminates the hassle of passing the phone around to gather everyone’s order, making the process faster and more convenient.”You can now share a link with your friends, and everyone can add to the cart seamlessly, making ordering together faster and easier.No more passing the phone around awkwardly to collect everyone’s order
We’re gradually rolling it out to all customers as we speak. In case the feature is available to you, please use it for your house party tonight, and tell us how it goes,” Goyal posted on social media.
How It Works
To use the group ordering feature, one person initiates the order by selecting the restaurant and adding the first item to the cart. They can then generate a link to share with others in the group. Each person can click on the link, browse the menu, and add their own items to the shared cart. Once everyone has added their choices, the initiator can review the combined order and proceed with the payment.
This new feature is designed to make group meals more enjoyable and stress-free, whether it’s for a house party, a casual get-together, or even an office lunch.
Rolling Out Gradually
According to Goyal, Zomato is gradually rolling out the group ordering feature to all customers. If the feature is available in your app, Zomato encourages you to try it out and share your experience. The company believes this feature will make ordering food with friends and family a much smoother experience.
Zomato’s move to introduce group ordering reflects its continuous efforts to improve user experience and make food delivery more convenient. As more people use the feature, Zomato will likely gather feedback to refine and enhance it further.
So, the next time you’re planning a meal with friends or hosting a house party, check if the group ordering feature is available on your Zomato app. It could save you time and make the ordering process a lot more fun.
In the words of Deepinder Goyal, “Please use it for your house party tonight, and tell us how it goes.”
