Food App: 5 Best Options for Your Hunger

There will be a moment when you feel hungry but you are too busy doing activities. If that is happening to you and you are in Indonesia, you are so lucky as ordering food in the country is as easy as uploading your photos on social media. You just need to install one food app or more on your smartphone.

A lot of people in Indonesia utilize many useful applications for their daily activities. Specifically for food, the choices are plenty that perhaps make you confused about which one to use. Below you will see seven of the best applications to simplify your choice consideration.

GoFood

One of if not the most popular food app available in Indonesia is GoFood. It is believed to be the first app in the country that gives online food delivery service. It is from Gojek, which is an online taxi application that has been growing recently.

In GoFood, there are hundreds or thousands of food merchants that you can choose from based on your taste. Fancy restaurants, fast food restaurants, to small food stalls, are available in the application. It basically serves you anything your mouth and guts want.

If the convenience of getting food delivered to you is not enough, you can also get a cheaper price for certain food with this food app. If you can match some specific requirements, you may earn some benefits such as cashback, discounts, or free delivery charges. You can pay with cash or Gojek’s e-money, GoPay.

GrabFood

In the competition for food delivery in Indonesia, the Grab Food app is a huge rival for GoFood. Both of them commonly fill up restaurants and food stalls with their green color. Just like what Gojek is for GoFood, GrabFood is from an online taxi company called Grab.

As they are very similar in terms of the services they provide, choosing between Grab or Gojek is like choosing between two apples. It is enough to have only one of them, but it is not wrong to keep them both. Consider having both to earn the best deal for the food or drinks that you want to order.

The features and benefits of how to order food in Indonesia that you can get with Grab or GrabFood are also similar to those from Gojek or GoFood. For payment, you can use cash or Ovo as the e-money provider for Grab.

ShopeeFood

Another great competitor of online food delivery in Bali or other areas in Indonesia, ShopeeFood is there to be chosen. Shopee is known to be one of the best e-commerce in Indonesia, so it is not an online taxi application like Gojek and Grab. With their orange jackets, ShopeeFood riders can be distinguished easily from competitors.

Before it even offers an online food delivery service, Shopee has already been owned by many people in Indonesia for their online shopping purposes. With the addition of ShopeeFood, this application has become more useful than ever.

MaximFood

Another online taxi application, Maxim perhaps can not be considered a competitor to Gojek and Grab as it is less popular than both of them. Still, it might only happen in Indonesia as this application is also available in other countries such as India, Russia, Columbia, and Argentina.

Despite that, it still has a food app called MaximFood, which sometimes offers food at the cheapest price. However, due to its lack of popularity, Maxim riders are not plenty making customers have to wait for longer to get a rider.

SayurBox

The last food app in this article is different compared to the others. Just like its name, ‘sayur’, which means vegetable, SayurBox provides fresh vegetables and fruits to be delivered to your place. This app is great to maintain your habit of eating healthy food in a regular manner.

As it does not provide food or drinks from restaurants or food stalls, SayurBox is not as popular as the other four applications above. However, it can be used to get a regular delivery of fruits and vegetables, or food ingredients at specific times.

With one food app or more on your smartphone, your hunger can be solved conveniently. To add to that convenience, use Flip to top your e-wallet up without an administration fee. Use Flip Globe also for your overseas transactions.
