The Deliveroo order flow
This is how a Deliveroo order works from the moment the customer places their order, to the moment your food arrives at their door.

Remember, start preparing an order as soon as you accept it, so it's ready on time.

Allergy & cutlery Don't include cutlery unless the customer has asked for it
Tracking riders
You can track the status of your rider for each order on the left hand side of your screen.
Rider status Riders are assigned to your order automatically.
Rider arrival The rider has arrived when the order flashes yellow.
Tip: To make sure the rider picks up the right order, just attach the order receipt to the outside of the bag.
Completed Orders
Once the order is with the rider, it will move to the Completed order list.
You can also see your completed orders on the Sales page in Partner Hub.
Reject an order
When you have to say no to an order, you'll be asked to select a reason why:
1. Ingredient unavailable Keep the availability of your menu items updated
2. Closing early Keep opening hours updated so customers know if you're closed
3. Too busy Next time try switching on 'Busy mode' instead of rejecting an order
4. Other Unforeseen circumstances that are out of your control
Automatic rejections We’ll auto reject an order within 10 minutes of it being placed to make sure the customer doesn’t go on waiting. So please keep checking the tablet.
