Food & Ride Booking and Delivery App The Food & Ride Booking App is a modern, credit-enabled platform designed to connect local restaurants and delivery riders with customers. It simplifies the process of discovering, ordering, and paying for meals and rides directly within the app — combining user convenience with a sustainable revenue model for the platform. Core Purpose The app empowers restaurants to list menus and manage their availability, while customers can browse nearby food options, place orders, and track deliveries in just a few taps. An admin panel ensures smooth oversight of users, listings, and transactions. Key Features • Restaurant Listings: Restaurants can post menus with pricing, photos, and descriptions; riders can register and manage availability. • Order & Ride Booking System: Customers can search and filter by cuisine, location, price, or delivery time, then instantly place an order and pay in-app. • Credit-Based System: Restaurants and riders use prepaid in-app credits to confirm orders, promote menu items, or accept deliveries — ensuring steady microtransaction revenue for the platform. • Wallet Management: Restaurants and riders can view their credit balance, transaction history, and top up anytime via secure gateways like Stripe, PayMongo, or GCash. • Convenience Fees: Customers pay a small, transparent fee per order, while restaurants or riders spend credits per confirmed booking/delivery. • Admin Dashboard: Administrators can approve restaurants and riders, handle disputes, manage listings, and monitor earnings and credit flow. Revenue Model The platform operates on a hybrid strategy: 1. Customers pay a small convenience or delivery fee (₱50–₱100) per order. 2. Riders use credits (₱10–₱15 deducted) for each confirmed order or delivery. This model provides instant revenue without complex payout systems and scales easily as the platform grows. Credit System Logic Riders maintain a balance of in-app credits: - Credits are deducted for actions like confirming orders, accepting deliveries, or promoting menu items. - Credits can be topped up anytime via supported payment gateways. - A minimum balance is required to continue operations (e.g., accepting orders or deliveries). - A transparent transaction history is available in the Credits Wallet screen. Example: A rider tops up ₱500 → each delivery confirmation deducts ₱10 → once balance falls below ₱490, the rider must reload credits to continue receiving delivery assignments.
