What is Bistroo?

Takeaway platforms have made it easy to enjoy our favourite meals, but they’ve made life tough for the restaurants we love.

Current platforms demand that restaurants pay disproportionate fees, while dictating control over data, pay-out, client relations, loyalty and contact. It’s a stitch-up that results in higher costs for consumers and restaurants.

Bistroo puts an end to this, by providing a platform where businesses are back in control.

We offer better user experience, lower transaction costs and a fairer infrastructure. Our job is to provide the tools, insights and support to facilitate a peer-2-peer relationships for our merchants.

We facilitate, never dictate We've created a platform that facilitates the connection between restaurants, food merchants and consumers, instead of controlling it. Merchants are in full control of their payments, product selection, orders, advertising, and analytics. They can speak directly with their customers and are paid out instantly when orders are received.

Our operational product launched on March 3rd 2020 within the Netherlands and has over 25k active and recurring users, generating 250k USD platform turnover monthly (see HERE for up-to-date stats).

The utility will become globally available through the launch of the Bistroo.com instance, eventually providing a platform for every merchant globally to onboard themselves and provide their products online to their customers.

• Purchase your food using BIST tokens against reduced rates compared to FIAT purchases.
