Integration
Lavu integration
Lavu is an iPad-based POS system designed for restaurants, bars, and quick-service establishments. It offers menu management, table layouts, employee scheduling, and reporting through a tablet interface that is easy for staff to learn. Lavu is popular among smaller restaurants and bars that want a modern POS without the cost of traditional hardware terminals. Integrating DirectOrders with Lavu lets you launch an online ordering website that operates independently of your in-store POS. Your kitchen receives direct orders through DirectOrders while Lavu handles dine-in and walk-in business. This setup eliminates third-party commissions on online orders and puts your restaurant in control of the customer experience.
Why it works
- Continue using Lavu on iPad for dine-in, bar, and walk-in orders
- Launch a branded online ordering site without switching POS systems
- Eliminate third-party delivery commissions on direct orders
- Collect customer emails and phone numbers for repeat business
- Quick setup with no hardware changes needed

How do I receive online orders?
Online orders placed through your DirectOrders website are sent to you via the DirectOrders dashboard, with notifications so your kitchen can begin preparation immediately.
