# Maple — AI phone ordering for takeout restaurants

> Canonical: https://maple.inc/for/takeout

Maple answers the pickup calls, takes the order into your POS and texts the caller a link to pay, so the counter can keep handing out bags.

## From the Call to the Pickup Shelf

Maple takes the order with every modifier, reads it back with the total and sends the ticket to your POS like any other order.

## Questions

**How do callers pay for a takeout order?** By card, through a secure link Maple texts during the call. If your POS accepts unpaid orders, callers can also pay at pickup.

**Does it work with my current POS system?** Yes. Maple writes the order into the same POS systems it already supports for phone orders: Toast, Square, Clover, Shift4 Dine (formerly SkyTab), Lightspeed and more. See the integrations page for the full list.

**Which languages does Maple speak?** Maple answers in the caller’s language. It speaks 13 so far: English, Mandarin, Cantonese, Spanish, Korean, French, Hindi, Vietnamese, Arabic, Portuguese, German, Japanese and Italian.

**Can I take online orders too?** Yes. Maple Ordering Sites build a branded pickup ordering site from your POS menu, on your own domain if you like. Each order reaches your POS like a phone order.

**Do I keep my phone number?** Yes. Forward your calls to Maple, or move your number to Maple. One number can serve several locations.

**What does it cost?** Maple Pro takes orders and payment: $350 a month billed monthly, or $220 a month billed yearly. Maple Voice ($150 a month, or $85 billed yearly) answers questions but does not take orders.
