1. Digital Menu

A QR on the truck exterior or the ordering window links to the current menu. Update items sold out or added today without reprinting. Include allergen filters and photos.

2. Location Sharing

Food trucks move. A QR links to a page showing today's location on a map, this week's schedule, and a notification sign-up so followers know when you are nearby.

3. Pre-Orders

A QR on social media posts and printed flyers links to a pre-order form. Customers order and pay ahead; you batch-prepare and reduce queue time at service.

4. Social Follow

A single QR can link to a micro-page with menu, location, and social follow buttons. One scan covers everything a new customer needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should a food truck QR go on the window or on flyers?

Both. Window QR serves queuing customers; flyer QR drives pre-orders and social following from further away.

How do I show sold-out items on the digital menu?

Update the menu page and mark items unavailable. Changes are immediate; no reprinting needed.
