Anthem Bagel
About the Client
The client is Anthem Bagel, a food business focused on serving fresh bagels and pastries to customers.
Their goal was to improve customer convenience and make it easier for people to order their favorite bagels anytime.
Industry:
Food & Beverage / Restaurant Technology
Core Objective:
Develop a mobile application that allows customers to place bookings and pre-orders for meals while providing easy access to menu items and service information.
The Challenge
Customers who enjoy bagels and pastries often struggle to access their preferred food quickly.
Traditional ordering methods limited convenience and made it difficult for customers to place orders ahead of time.
Key challenges included:
- Limited accessibility for customers craving bagels at different times
- No mobile platform for easy pre-ordering of meals
- Need for a system that supports both iOS and Android users
- Lack of automated notifications for order updates
- Need for centralized management of menu and service information
The client required a mobile ordering platform that could simplify meal ordering while improving the customer experience.
The Solution: Anthem Bagel Mobile App
The development team created a mobile ordering application that allows customers to browse menu items, place orders, and receive real-time updates.
The application was designed to work smoothly on both iOS and Android platforms.
The platform integrates:
- User Account Creation and Login
- Menu Browsing and Meal Selection
- Pre-Order and Pick-Up Scheduling
- In-App Payment System
- Push Notification Alerts
- Location Tracking for Orders
- Web-Based Admin Management Panel
User Account and Login System
Customers can create a personal account within the application.
Once registered, users can log in and access the full features of the app.
The account system allows customers to manage orders and track their activities easily.
Menu Selection and Pre-Ordering
The application provides a complete digital menu of available bagels and food items.
Customers can browse the menu and select items they want to order.
Users can place pre-orders for meal pickup, allowing them to collect their orders quickly without waiting.
This feature improves convenience and saves time for customers.
In-App Payment System
The platform allows customers to make payments directly through the application.
Payments are processed using an in-app balance system, making the ordering process smooth and quick.
Customers can complete their orders without needing to pay at the store.
Push Notifications for Order Updates
The application includes a push notification system.
Customers receive notifications when:
- Their order is confirmed
- Their order is completed
These updates keep customers informed about the status of their meals.
Real-Time Location Tracking
The application includes location tracking features for order management.
When a user places an order for immediate pickup, administrators can track the user’s location through the admin panel.
If the user selects a specific time frame for the order, the application can also track their location accordingly.
This helps the restaurant manage order preparation and timing efficiently.
