CaterRail vs the ezCater marketplace

Your regulars shouldn't cost you a commission.

Most catering comes from people who already know your name. On a marketplace, every one of those orders pays the same cut as a stranger's. Move them to your own site and keep it.

Your regulars find you on ezCater because that's where your Google profile, your office manager's bookmark and the top search result for your own name all point. Every one of those orders pays a commission.

CaterRail gives them somewhere better to go: your own site, under your name, with your menu and your rules. Point your website, your Google profile, your phone line and your email signature at it.

Same customers. Same orders. You keep the margin.
