  2. Open Point of Sale, enter the sale, and choose Tap to Pay. The customer taps when prompted.

  2. Sign in to your POS to authorize the connection. Your menu and items import automatically.

Good to know

Your POS stays the place to manage inventory, refunds, and in-person payments. Each system shares the features its own connection supports.

Today’s truck stop—not yesterday’s address.GPS connects your current location to discovery and pickup.Automatic GPS stops

Park, and Fork & Curb notices. After a few minutes in one spot, the seller app fills in the address and asks one question: “Open for orders here?” Drive off and the stop closes on its own. Customers always see where you are right now.

How it works

  1. Allow location access in the seller app once.
  2. Park at your stop. The app detects it, fills in the address, and prompts you to open with one tap.
  3. Accepted orders stay pinned to the stop where they were placed, so every pickup and driver heads to the right curb.
Good to know

Prefer to plan ahead? Schedule stops in advance or set your spot by hand on the map, and customers can order ahead for a later stop.

Your drivers first. More reach when needed.Use your own drivers. We find one when you're busy.Your drivers first

Fork & Curb sends each delivery to your closest on-shift driver first. When your team is busy, Fork & Curb local drivers and trusted delivery partners extend your reach.

How it works

  1. Add your drivers and put them on shift.
  2. Each delivery goes to your closest on-shift driver, with no customer delivery fee when you deliver yourself.
  3. When you need more reach, a delivery partner takes the run at the price the customer approved at checkout.
Good to know

Your own drivers mean a $0 customer delivery fee. Drivers keep 100% of their tips.

Know who’s coming. Follow the handoff.Customers track their order from the truck to the door.Live tracking

Every delivery gets a Fork & Curb tracking page with the assigned driver, live location, ETA, and proof of delivery. Customers stop calling the truck, and your team keeps cooking.

How it works

  1. The customer sees the assigned driver’s name and ETA as soon as the run is accepted.
  2. Live progress updates from pickup to the door.
  3. Proof of delivery, including a photo, is saved with the order for easy support.
Good to know

Tracking works the same whether your own driver or a delivery partner takes the run.

Every run. Clear directions. A personal handoff.Drivers get the pickup spot, directions and drop-off steps.Driver tools

Drivers get a clear pickup point, delivery instructions, and turn-by-turn navigation for every run, while dispatch follows progress in real time.

How it works

  1. The driver joins your business or the Fork & Curb local network and goes on shift.
  2. Each job includes the pickup spot, drop-off, and customer notes. The driver taps to update progress.
  3. A photo and completion step close out the delivery, with one-tap contact with dispatch if anything comes up.
Good to know

Drivers keep 100% of delivery tips.

Your business. Your choices. Your settings.Your settings: hours, drivers, delivery and payments.Seller dashboard

Set your location preferences, drivers, delivery choices, POS, catering, and pay-at-pickup options in one seller dashboard. Your orders, customers, and payouts stay private to your business—including when you join a Court.

How it works

  1. Choose how your business operates and where drivers pick up orders.
  2. Add your drivers and turn on the POS, catering, shipping, or pay-at-pickup services that fit your business.
  3. Save your settings and they apply to your storefront right away.
Good to know

Staff roles for owners, managers, and cashiers keep everyone focused on the right tools.

Big occasions need more than a delivery pin.Catering requests, quotes, deposits, and event day, in one place.Catering & events

An office lunch, wedding, or truck booking needs more than a takeout order. Organizers send a request with the date, headcount, menu, and service style; you send a quote, and the deposit is paid online.

How it works

  1. Turn on catering in your seller dashboard.
  2. Receive requests with the date, headcount, dietary needs, destination, and service window. Send a quote in a few taps.
  3. The customer accepts and pays the deposit online. The event lands on your calendar with every detail.
Good to know

Set your own minimums, deposit amounts, and cancellation terms.

Homegrown recipes. A path to your own business.Sell the foods your state allows, with the right labels built in.Home cooks

Fork & Curb matches your menu and selling options to the rules where you live. In South Carolina, home kitchens sell baked goods and other shelf-stable foods, and full meals are cooked in a licensed kitchen—which Fork & Curb helps you find and book.

How it works

  1. Tell us where you cook and what you make.
  2. Fork & Curb shows which foods, pickup, and delivery options are allowed, and adds the required label to your listings automatically.
  3. Announce a meal drop, take pre-orders, and cook exactly what’s been ordered.

For your business & location

Rules differ by state and county. Fork & Curb keeps your listing within your local rules.

How it works

  1. Browse kitchens by location, equipment, storage, and rate.
  2. Book a session and see what it costs next to your expected pre-order sales.
  3. Your storefront shows “Made in a licensed kitchen” for orders cooked there.

Bring customers back.Texts, email, and follower alerts from your own business.Customer marketing

Your customers are yours. Message followers when you park (“At the brewery until 8!”), announce specials and drops, and send last-call deals before you move on.

How it works

  1. Customers follow your truck and opt in to texts or email.
  2. Send an update in a few taps, or let Fork & Curb alert nearby followers when you open.
  3. Quiet hours and STOP requests are honored automatically.
Good to know

Messages go out under your own business name, to customers who opted in.

Food truck courtsOne place with several trucks. Each truck runs its own business.Court dashboard

Customers discover food and follow their orders. Sellers run their own businesses. Drivers handle the trip. The Court operator runs the destination: members, pads, memberships, gate codes, services, and events.

How it works

  1. Publish the Court’s profile and amenities, and manage the member roster.
  2. Assign pads, bill memberships, and issue gate codes automatically.
  3. Track pad rent, services, and event revenue on the Court’s own ledger, separate from seller food sales.
Good to know

Court revenue goes straight to the Court’s own account, and each truck keeps its own sales.
