ezCater is deeply committed to reliability. Our customers rely on us to deliver their full order on time, exactly as ordered. There are eight operational metrics we expect our partners to uphold. If any partners fail to meet our expectations, we will temporarily pause their store, beginning with rejection and cancellation rates. We expect our partners to make the necessary updates to their settings, parameters, and any adjustments to in-store operations to meet our expectations to stay in good standing and remain visible on the marketplace.
Our customers tell us that rejections and cancellations are two of the most painful negative experiences. They depend on us to fulfill every single one of their orders reliably. If you fall below our minimum performance expectations listed below, your store will be paused on the ezCater marketplace for two weeks. Once you’re unpaused, you’ll have a new 90-day period to accept and fulfill orders and get your metrics up to our standard. Catering Partners who have been paused three times will be decommissioned from the ezCater platform. Use the chart below to understand our rejection and cancellation thresholds and make improvements to your operation to avoid the inconvenience of being paused.
