EatSure, the D2C platform of online restaurant company Rebel Foods, on Thursday announced the launch of a new feature allowing users to order from multiple restaurants in one order. With this, the firm has become the first food delivery app in India to do so.
Swiggy and Zomato, which corner the lion’s share of India’s food delivery market, had earlier introduced group ordering features allowing several users to add items to one cart. Zomato also allows users to make up to 4 separate carts at one time.

“The host, responsible for finalising the order and payment, can effortlessly share a unique invite link, making it simple for others to join the group via app or website,” it said. It is live in the platform’s Android app and website.
