In many ordering systems, payments land in the platform's own account first, then get transferred to you on a set schedule. That extra layer both delays your access to your money and complicates reconciliation. When you connect your own payment account, that extra layer disappears entirely.
How Intermediary Payouts Affect Cash Flow
When a payment passes through an intermediary account, it can take days for that money to reach you. For a small or mid-sized restaurant, that delay can create a real headache when planning supplier payments or payroll.
The Control You Gain by Connecting Your Own Account
When you link your payment provider to your own business account, what the customer pays comes directly to you. Reconciliation is tracked straight from your provider's own dashboard — you're never dependent on a third party's report.
Which Providers Are Supported
You can connect directly with widely used providers such as Stripe, PayPal and Nets, or your local payment provider. You can also keep multiple providers active at the same time — giving your customers a choice of payment options.
How Security Is Handled
The credentials for your provider account are stored only on the server side; they're never sent to the browser or to any other party. That keeps both your and your customers' payment information protected.
The Bottom Line
Connecting your own payment account isn't just a technical setting — it means having direct control over your cash flow. The gap between taking a payment and being able to actually use that money disappears.
