ChowNow powers online ordering systems for independent restaurants via restaurants’ own websites, Facebook and Google pages, apps, and ChowNow’s website. ChowNow consolidates 1st and 3rd party ordering into one central hub so restaurant owners dont have to juggle multiple tablets. We do all of this without the predatory third-party commissions charged by the other guys.
