Two areas. One Reach.

The right product, in the menu, at the moment of choice.

Reach is for whoever already holds attention in restaurants, and for whoever wants to get into that moment. Partners highlight menu items and monetize traffic. Advertisers get their product found a few seconds before the order.

No advertising space · Highlights in the menu · Two audiences, two areas

Reach · Food & Beverage

Partner area

You already have attention.
You can monetize it.

If your software sits in restaurants — digital menus, delivery, POS, tools for the restaurateur — Reach tells you what to highlight in the menu. You stay in control and receive 50% of the campaign value.

Enter the partner area

Advertiser area

You want into the menu.
At the moment of choice.

If you have a product to be found while someone is choosing what to order, Reach highlights it in the network’s menus. You do not buy a slot: you ask for the right item to be put forward.

For partners

This area is for whoever holds attention.

If your software has the attention of restaurateurs or consumers, you are in the right place.

Digital menus, delivery apps, POS systems, tools for the restaurateur: if your product occupies the gaze in the dining room or in the kitchen, Reach lets you monetize that traffic. It does not ask for advertising space: it tells you what to highlight in the menu. You stay in control.

01

Digital menus

Highlight the menu item with the highest chance of being sold. Look and placement stay yours.

Menu home, categories, dish pages.

02

Delivery apps

Highlight a relevant product while the user is choosing what to order for takeaway.

Home, categories, cart, order confirmation.

03

POS systems

Propose new suppliers while the restaurateur is focused on changing the menu.

Menu editing, catalogue, product management.

04

Tools for the restaurateur

Bring highlights where the operator looks as well, not only the guest.

What Reach does

Not advertising space. Highlights in the menu.

A new way to monetize Food & Beverage traffic.

Reach does not ask you to sell space. It tells you which menu item to highlight, in which venue and in which context, to raise the odds of a sale. You keep running the product; Reach measures interactions and pays you 50%.

Restaurants60,000+

Venues already in the WaitHero network.

People5M+

Choosing what to order every month.

Dishes seen100M+

Product views per month across Italy.

These are network numbers, not single-campaign numbers. How many yours reaches depends on audience, period and context.

Where the revenue comes from

The brand pays Reach. 50% of the value is yours.

A brand funds a campaign. Your platform highlights the product while the customer chooses from the menu. Reach pays you half of the full campaign value, every month.

02You highlight the productReach tells you which menu item to put forward.
03You receive 50%Half of the full campaign value is yours.

Without Reach

  • You have to sell advertising space
  • You have to insert banners in the menu
  • You have to interrupt people choosing
  • You have to build the tracking
  • You have to calculate every payout

With Reach

  • No space to sell
  • You highlight items already in the menu
  • Higher chance of a sale
  • Reach records views and clicks
  • 50% of the campaign value is yours

How it works

What happens, step by step.

Reach does not add advertising to your product. It tells you what to highlight in the menu so it sells better.

  1. 01You activate your account

    We review the platform and the traffic. In production the API key is issued and managed through the API.

  2. 02Your server sends the context

    It tells Reach the location, restaurant type and dishes currently being shown.

  3. 03Reach tells you what to highlight

    Which menu item, where, and what it is worth. If there is no relevant match, you highlight nothing.

  4. 04You record interactions

    When the highlighted item is viewed or chosen, your server sends the event. Reach validates it and adds it to your monthly payout.

Formats

Not banners. Highlights in the menu.

Reach does not take extra space. It tells you which item to highlight, in the context where the customer is already choosing.

Revenue model

50% of the campaign value is yours.

Reach pays you 50% of the full value of every campaign. We recommend giving a share of that to the restaurateur: after all, the shop window is theirs. The policy is yours, so you stay in control of whether to do it.

You decideThe policy stays under your control

The 50% comes to you. We recommend sharing a part of it with the restaurateur, because the shop window is theirs. Whether to do it, and how, is your call.

Advertiser area

This area is for whoever wants into the menu.

You do not buy a slot. You ask for your product to be highlighted.

On social you are far from the moment of the order. In the digital menu you are three taps from the choice. Reach highlights your item in the network’s menus — beer, wine, a dish, an ingredient — a few seconds before someone decides.

What you get

Your product is put forward where people are already choosing what to order. Not a banner on the side: a menu item highlighted, with the context of the meal.

What it is not

It is not a network of advertising slots. We do not ask the restaurant to add a box. We ask the partner to make noticeable what is already, or can be, in the menu.

Who it is for

Brands, producers, importers and anyone with a product to be found in restaurants. You set the goal and the budget. Partners in the network show it at the right moment.

How you start

Plan a campaign: tell us who you are, what you want highlighted and with which budget. From there the campaign is built in the Reach network.

For advertisers

Four steps. Then the menu does the rest.

  1. 01Goal

    Choose what you want highlighted: a product, a category, a territory. You do not need a slot: you need an item to be noticed.

  2. 02Budget

    Define how much you invest. 50% of the campaign value goes to the partner who holds attention. You pay to be chosen, not for a banner.

  3. 03Network

    Reach tells partners what to highlight in their menus. They stay in control. You arrive at the moment of choice.

  4. 04Result

    The right product, in the menu, while someone is about to order. You measure whether it was highlighted and whether it convinced.
