New Updates

 

Category Wise Mobile App Banner

Under the reports section in the merchant portal, users can now generate reports for geo-fenced areas that are set in the portal according to the branch location. This will be useful for analyzing data related to the areas that a certain branch caters to and forming the strategy of different branches accordingly.

? App view

This feature allows restaurants and supermarkets to create banners for specific sections or categories in mobile apps. This is a great way to showcase promotions or announcements and can even be used to partner with brands for sponsored promotions.

Note: This feature is already available for websites.

How it works:

200 Character Limit in Order Instructions 

To streamline the ordering process, a new limit of 200 characters has been added for order instruction across all platforms. This will help reduce the number of unimportant instructions and ensure that only the crucial information is conveyed to operators.

 

Grow Your Orders: Conversion Tracking of Custom SMS Audience

Users who have uploaded external databases to run SMS campaigns can now track the order conversions for external use on Blink’s GYO Module. 

This enables data-driven decision-making, leading to improved performance and better insights into customer behavior.

Rider Performance Report: KMs Added

A new feature in the rider performance report is the distance travelled in kilometres by every rider. This provides businesses with valuable insights into rider efficiency and allows them to make better decisions regarding expenses and salaries based on the distance covered.
