Getting Started
Everything you need to know before you start using GrubStack.
Welcome to GrubStack
GrubStack is a complete online ordering platform for independent restaurants and food trucks. A single subscription gives you three connected applications:
- GrubStack Core — the management dashboard you use to run your business
- GrubStack Web — the branded, mobile-first storefront your customers order from
- GrubStack API — the underlying REST API that powers both applications
This section walks you through everything you need before you start taking orders: how the three apps fit together, what's included in your license, how to add teammates, and how to connect a payment processor.
What you'll need
- A GrubStack account (created during or before checkout)
- A Square or Stripe account to accept payments
- About 15 minutes to complete the Setup Wizard in your dashboard
Where to go next
Start with About our Apps to understand how GrubStack Core, GrubStack Web, and GrubStack API work together, then continue through this section to finish setting up your subscription, payment processor, and team access.
