Question 1

How does the Online Canteen ordering work?

Accepted Answer

Employees browse the menu and order individually via our app or desktop browser. We cook everything fresh in our own kitchens and deliver to the office on time – you get one dashboard and one invoice instead of juggling vendors.

Question 2

What is the minimum team size for the Online Canteen?

Accepted Answer

The Online Canteen starts from 30 employees. If your team is smaller, our Corporate Catering, Fruit, or Pantry services may be a better fit, and they can all be combined as you grow.

Question 3

How quickly can we launch the Online Canteen?

Accepted Answer

Fast. You receive a tailored proposal within 4 hours, and most recurring setups can go live within 7 days once we’ve confirmed your location, menu preferences, and delivery window.

Question 4

How do we introduce the Online Canteen to employees?

Accepted Answer

We handle the rollout for you. Your team gets a simple onboarding with app access, a short intro, and communication materials, so people can place their first order without any extra work from HR or office managers.

Question 5

How much does the Online Canteen cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on team size, menu, and delivery frequency. Employees pay for their own meals, while employers can choose to subsidize lunch – and we model the exact setup with you in a tailored proposal.

Question 6

How is the Online Canteen tax-optimized?

Accepted Answer

When structured correctly under § 8 Abs. 2 and § 40 Abs. 2 EStG, employers can support employee meals up to €7.67 per workday in a tax-efficient way. We help model the setup and provide the documentation you need.

Question 7

How does billing and invoicing work?

Accepted Answer

You receive one consolidated invoice for the whole team instead of many individual receipts. Everything is tracked in your dashboard, so finance has a clear, monthly overview of usage and spend.

Question 8

Are there any hidden fees?

Accepted Answer

No. We work with transparent, per-person pricing and make the included services clear in your proposal, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

Question 9

What kind of food is on the menu?

Accepted Answer

A rotating selection of chef-made dishes cooked fresh in our own kitchens, with options for every taste and diet. The menu changes regularly so your team always has variety throughout the week.

Question 10

Can you accommodate dietary requirements and allergies?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our kitchens prepare vegan, vegetarian, halal, gluten-free, lactose-free, and allergen-reduced options, and dietary needs are handled directly by the kitchen team. Allergen information is shown on every dish in the app.

Question 11

Can we see a sample menu before we start?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We can share example menus so you and your team know exactly what to expect, and we’ll tailor the selection to your team’s preferences.

Question 12

How often does the menu change?

Accepted Answer

The menu rotates regularly so employees never get bored. Favorites stay available while new seasonal dishes are introduced to keep daily lunch interesting.

Question 13

Which cities does the Online Canteen serve?

Accepted Answer

We currently deliver the Online Canteen to teams in Berlin and Munich, with more locations rolling out. We’ll confirm availability for your office when we put together your proposal.

Question 14

What happens if our team grows, shrinks, or relocates?

Accepted Answer

No problem. Headcount can be adjusted monthly and we scale with you as your team changes. If you move offices, we coordinate the switch as long as the new location is in our delivery area.

Question 15

Can employees order on different days or skip days?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Ordering is fully individual – employees decide each day whether and what they want to eat, so you only ever pay for the meals your team actually orders.

Question 16

Can we combine the Online Canteen with other services?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and many teams do. For example: Online Canteen for daily lunch, Fruit for the office, and Corporate Catering for events – all with one invoice and one point of contact.
