The four automations that do the work

Live Hours & Availability Reply

ZapUp instantly answers open/close timing and current table or seating availability questions without staff picking up the phone mid-rush.

Bulk Tub/Party Order Intake

For party or bulk orders, ZapUp collects flavor choices, tub sizes, quantity and pickup time in one structured message.

Seasonal Flavor Broadcast

When new or seasonal flavors launch, ZapUp broadcasts the updated menu with photos to past customers on WhatsApp and Instagram followers.

Weekend Rush Waitlist

During peak evening hours, ZapUp can auto-reply with an estimated wait time and offer a callback or table-hold request.

The Instagram side

Discovery happens on Instagram — ZapUp runs both

Cafés and ice cream parlors are highly Instagram-driven through food Reels and aesthetic photos, and ZapUp converts those "where is this" comments and DMs directly into WhatsApp orders or table-hold requests instead of losing the enquiry in the comments section.

Before you ask

Can I automate WhatsApp replies for my café's opening hours and menu?

Yes. ZapUp answers common questions like open hours, table availability and menu instantly on WhatsApp and Instagram, freeing up counter staff during busy hours.

Can ZapUp take bulk ice cream tub orders for parties?

Yes, it collects flavor, quantity, tub size and pickup time in a structured chat flow so party orders don't get missed during a rush.

Does it work with Instagram DMs as well as WhatsApp?

Yes, ZapUp bridges Instagram DM enquiries — common for food Reels — directly into the same WhatsApp order or booking flow.
