Restaurant details

Start with the information customers use to reach and visit you.

Used only to text your secure payment-provider connection link. Never published, shown to customers, or connected to anything else.
If a customer calls with a major issue, your AI receptionist transfers the call to you immediately as an emergency.

How you serve

Choose every option that applies. We’ll use this to prepare your AI receptionist.

Hostly imports the menu for you—no retyping required.

Choose your payment provider Required

Pick where you want to receive customer payments. Choosing one provider is required before you can continue.

Connect securely after signup

We’ll text you a secure self-serve link. You’ll sign in on your provider’s own page, so your password never touches Hostly. Customer payment links start working after you complete that connection from the text.
