How Summit Systems Works

Summit Systems helps restaurants collect payment before pickup by sending secure payment links through text message. The system is designed specifically for phone orders to eliminate unpaid pickups and reduce no-shows.

When a customer calls and places an order, your staff enters the customer’s name, phone number, and order total into the system. A secure payment link is instantly sent to the customer by text message.

The customer opens the text, taps the link, and completes payment directly from their phone. As soon as payment is successful, your staff receives instant confirmation so the order can be prepared confidently.

If the customer does not complete payment, the system automatically sends reminder texts based on your plan. This reduces the need for manual follow-up and increases the chance that orders are paid before pickup.

The entire process is designed to protect your revenue, reduce unpaid food waste, and remove awkward payment collection at the counter.

Starter Plan

The Starter plan provides a complete Text-to-Pay system for restaurants handling phone orders.

Restaurants can send secure payment links by text, receive instant “paid” confirmation alerts, and automatically send one reminder text if the order has not been completed.

This plan is ideal for smaller restaurants that want to prevent unpaid pickups while keeping the process simple and easy to manage.

Growth Plan

The Growth plan includes everything in the Starter plan with expanded capacity and stronger payment follow-up.

Restaurants can process a higher volume of phone orders and send two automated reminder texts instead of one. This increases the likelihood that customers complete payment before arriving.

Growth is designed for restaurants with steady phone order volume that want stronger protection against unpaid orders while maintaining smooth daily operations.

Premium Plan

The Premium plan includes everything in the Growth plan and adds advanced automation for higher-volume restaurants.

In addition to the highest message capacity and full reminder sequence, Premium automatically sends a review request text after successful payment. This allows restaurants to generate more online reviews without staff needing to manually ask customers.

Premium also includes dedicated onboarding to ensure the system is set up correctly and optimized for your workflow, along with priority support as your order volume increases.

This plan is built for restaurants that want full automation, stronger revenue protection, and consistent growth through improved online reputation.
