Town vs BentoBox
Beautiful sites are table stakes. Town adds low-fee ordering, delivery, loyalty and more, all connected.
One flat fee: one flat monthly price with 0% commission. Everything included, no contract.
Pricing varies by plan, often a monthly subscription, tiered add-ons, or a limited free tier.
The problem
A template, a monthly bill, and a site you don't own.
BentoBox puts you on a shared template, bills you every month, and keeps you renting, so the site, the app and your customers never really become yours.
- 🎨 A shared template that looks like every other BentoBox restaurant
- 💸 Monthly fees for features often split across pricey tiers
- 🔒 You don't own it, leave and the site and data can go with them
- 🙉 You still do the work, loading menus and running the tools yourself
