Catering quote software: menus by headcount & deposits
Caterers: quotes by headcount in minutes, not days. Menus, dietaries and deposits online.
Quotes built by hand, dietary requirements collected late and deposits chased. We build catering quote and order systems.
Looking for catering quoting and ordering software?
Catering quotes depend on headcount, menu choices and dietary needs. We build tools that quote instantly and collect everything the kitchen needs.
Wollopit builds ordering, bookings, menus and websites for caterers around how your venue actually runs. We connect the POS and tools you already use, cut out the commissions you don't need to pay and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back on the floor.

06How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your catering business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
07Questions
FAQ
Things caterers ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can corporate clients reorder regular lunches?
Yes. Corporate accounts can save and repeat orders.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your catering business. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
Will it work with our POS?
Usually, yes. We connect to common systems like Square and Lightspeed so orders, menus and stock line up. If yours is holding you back we'll talk options first.
Do we stop paying commission?
On orders and bookings that come through your own website, yes. You pay your card fees and that's it, instead of handing over a cut of every sale.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most caterers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
