Two Dutch systems built for delivery and takeaway. CashDesk (since 2000, Hoofddorp) with subscriptions vs. Hebtrek Connect with pay-per-order. Which model fits your restaurant?
CashDesk works with monthly subscriptions (Start-Up, Scale-Up or Professional) plus low iDEAL transaction fees. Hebtrek Connect works on a pay-per-order model: you only pay when you actually process orders, with no fixed subscription. Both systems offer delivery tracking: CashDesk through their own Driver app, Hebtrek through the Naavi driver app.

Through the Callvoip integration you instantly see customer details and order history when someone calls. Includes a call queue so you never miss a call during peak hours. Unique in the delivery market.
Proven with chains such as Eazie (27 locations live in a day), Vapiano and SushiPoint. KPI tracking, customer location heatmaps and multi-location reporting.
CashDesk offers your own ordering website in your branding and a white-label ordering app on iOS and Android. Ideal for saving the 14% commission charged by platforms like Thuisbezorgd.
"Finally a system that grows with us"
"We were looking for a more flexible system than our previous subscription. With Hebtrek Connect we only pay for what we use. In quiet months that makes a real difference. The Naavi driver app works perfectly for our drivers."
Free switching service including menu import. We help you migrate to Hebtrek Connect.
CashDesk sells you a cash register. Hebtrek gives you a cash register plus a place where guests actually order: hebtrek.nl, the Dutch ordering platform behind Hebtrek Connect.
There are no monthly fees and no setup costs. You only pay commission on the orders that actually come in: 8% when you deliver yourself and 28% when a Hebtrek courier rides the order. A quiet week simply costs less, because there is no subscription running in the background.
Orders from hebtrek.nl land in the same POS as your table orders, counter orders and delivery channels. One menu, one receipt printer, one revenue report. Nothing has to be maintained twice.
