This feature is available with Deliverect Plus. To learn more, go here.
At Deliverect, we aim to not only improve your workflow but also increase the revenue your business generates. With the Optimize feature, you can effortlessly add temporary products and update prices, then test those changes over a period of time.
For example, you could create an optimization to test if customers are willing to pay an extra price during peak hours.
Changes are non-permanent and can be stopped and reverted at any time. Do note that the tests applied will be shown to all customers; it is not a way to A/B test your menus.

Step 2. Select the ＋Optimization button at the top right.
Step 3. Enter a name and choose the menu to optimize. Select Next.

Edit an optimization
To make changes to an optimization, select the edit (pencil) icon. If the test is running, you will be prompted to first deactivate it.
Delete an optimization
Select ⋯ ① and choose Delete optimization ②. The optimization must be deactivated first (draft status).
Optimization status
Optimizations can have one of the following statuses:
Draft: The optimization has been created but isn't activated.
Test scheduled: The optimization has been activated but doesn't meet the schedule criteria.
Test running: The optimization is currently being used on your channels.
Implemented: The optimization does not have a start/end date, allowing it to be run indefinitely (on the days and times specified).
View results
Expand the optimization to see the impact of your optimization it had. The change in revenue, order volume, and average order value are provided.
Permanently implement an optimization
Once a test has finished, you can make the changes permanent by selecting ⋯ ① and choosing Implement optimization ②.
