Hotplate Portal: Sell Food

Hotplate is the easiest way for chefs, bakers, and pop-up food businesses to sell out their drops and manage orders online.

The Hotplate Portal app gives you the business tools you need to run your food business from your phone, whether you’re hosting a weekly bakery drop, a pop-up dinner, a meal prep pickup, or a limited-time collab.

Create and manage drops, track orders, organize prep, message customers, and keep your business moving without juggling DMs, spreadsheets, forms, and payment links. Hotplate is free to get started, with no setup fees or monthly subscription. You only pay when you start selling.

BUILT FOR FOOD DROPS Run limited-time drops, pre-orders, pop-ups, pickups, deliveries, and special events from one place.

MANAGE ORDERS ON THE GO See incoming orders, customer details, fulfillment status, pickup windows, and prep needs from your phone.

STAY ORGANIZED Use Hotplate to keep orders, customers, inventory, and event details organized before, during, and after each drop.

MESSAGE CUSTOMERS Communicate with customers when you need to answer questions, update orders, or share important details.

SELL WITH CONFIDENCE Start your Hotplate store for free and only pay when you make sales. Hotplate helps you streamline the operational side of running a food business, so you can spend less time on admin and more time cooking, baking, and serving your community.

This app is for chefs, bakers, and food businesses using Hotplate. Customers do not need this app to place an order.
