Creventa: contactless ordering
![]()
Three entrepreneurs in the UK have developed an app for contactless tableside ordering, to help UK restaurants maintain social distancing this month.
Sommelier-turned-wine bar owner, Jake Crimmin, Andrew Norton, founder of wine-focused Oxford restaurant The Jam Factory, and music mogul Luke Ireland developed their app, called Creventa, in two weeks.
Diners scan a QR code or input a web address into their smart phones when they sit down. They are then taken to an online menu and, once they’ve made their selection, the order is sent to a computer behind the bar, and the guest is charged either via their credit/debit card or Apple Pay.
The table number is registered from the QR code/web address, so staff know where to send the order.
Theirs is, of course, not the only contactless ordering app on the market…
