How to add your own ordering link to your Google Business Profile
To put your own ordering website on Google, open your Business Profile, select Food ordering, add your link with Add a link, then select it, choose Set as preferred, turn on Preferred for collection, Preferred for delivery or both, and select Save. Google may still show other ordering services for your shop, such as apps you're listed on. These steps are from Google's own help page for UK businesses, Manage online ordering options, checked 15 October 2026.
Google changes these screens from time to time, and shows them differently on Google Search and Google Maps. If a label on your screen doesn't match, look for the nearest one.
Before you start
- You need to be able to edit your shop's Business Profile. If someone else set it up, ask them to give you access.
- Have your ordering page's exact web address ready. For a DingOrder shop that's your yourshop.web.app address, or your own domain.
- Open the address on your phone first and check that your menu loads.
Add your link and set it as preferred
Go to your Business Profile.
Sign in at business.google.com, or search for your shop's name on Google while signed in. On Google Maps, select Edit profile.
Select Food ordering.
Google's help pages also call this section Pick-up and delivery in places.
Add your link.
At the bottom of the list, select Add a link (another Google page calls it Add link), enter your ordering page's address and save it.
Select your link, then Set as preferred.
Turn on Preferred for collection, Preferred for delivery, or both.
If a switch won't turn on, that provider doesn't offer that option.
Select Save.
Google allows up to 10 links for placing a food order. When there's more than one, the preferred one sits at the top, marked "Business preferred". Google's Manage your local business links page describes the same thing with a Set preferred link button.
Where customers see your link
For businesses outside the US, Google describes two things: an "Order online" button, filled by ordering services that work with Google, and "Place an order" links, which can be your own website. In some countries the ordering options appear under the "Order online" button; in others the "Place an order" links appear separately on the profile. Which one your customers see is up to Google, and can change.
Remove a link you no longer use
If an old ordering link is still on your profile, for example from a service you've left, or from GloriaFood, whose website says it will stop on 30 April 2027 (checked 13 October 2026; moving off GloriaFood):
Go to your Business Profile and select Food ordering.
Select the provider or link.
Select Remove link.
Google says that once you ask, the provider must remove its link within five working days (another Google page says five days). If it doesn't, you can report it to Google.
Things that catch owners out
| What happens | Why, according to Google |
|---|---|
| Delivery apps still show next to your link | Ordering services that state they have an authorised relationship with your business are listed and updated automatically. Some links come from Google's own data. |
| All your ordering links disappear | The Accept orders on your profile switch is off. Turning it off hides the ordering links you added, including your own. |
| A collection or delivery switch won't turn on | That provider doesn't offer that option. |
| The buttons don't match this page | Google shows different options by country and between Search and Maps, and renames them. This page follows Google's UK help pages as checked on 15 October 2026. |
Check that it works
Open Google Maps on your phone, find your shop, and tap your ordering link. It should open your menu, not an old page or another service. Ask a regular to look on their phone too.
If DingOrder runs your ordering website
DingOrder is an online ordering system for independent takeaways and small restaurants in the UK. If you give me access to your Google Business Profile, I set your site as the preferred way to order on Google. Google may still list other ordering services too. DingOrder isn't one of the ordering services that work with Google, so your DingOrder website goes on your profile as a link you add, as in the steps above. What I set up for you.
Google ordering link questions
Can I take Just Eat or another app's link off my Google profile?
Google's help page says you can: select Food ordering, select the provider's link, then Remove link, and the provider must remove it within five working days. Taking the link off Google doesn't take your shop off the app, so check your contract with the app first. Google also says that ordering services which state they have an authorised relationship with your business are listed automatically.
If I set my link as preferred, will Google stop showing the delivery apps?
No. Preferred puts your link first; it doesn't make it the only one. Apps that work with Google can still be listed. To take a provider's link off your profile, use Remove link.
How many ordering links can I add?
Up to 10 for food orders, according to Google. You can also add one link to your menu.
Why can't I find Food ordering on my profile?
Google's help pages say ordering options appear in different places depending on the country, and they also name the section Pick-up and delivery in places. On Google Maps, start from Edit profile.
Questions about your Google profile?
If you're thinking about your own ordering website, or your Google profile still sends customers to an app, message me. You can talk to me in English or Mandarin.
