FoodChaser Vendor 2.0

Built for one hand, between orders.

You don’t have time for a dashboard. Everything in the app takes a tap or two, so the map stays right while you keep cooking.

Open in one tap

A live status card for each truck. Flip it open when the window goes up, closed when you pack out. Your check-in overrides the crowd, always.

Wait time presets

Line around the block? Set 20 minutes with one tap, so chasers know before they drive over.

Updates to your followers

Where you’re parked, what’s back on the menu, when you’re closing early. You see a live preview of the notification before it goes out.

Your menu, as chasers see it

Check exactly what people are looking at when they find you, before they walk up to the window.

More than one truck

Run a fleet, a stand and a storefront from one account, each with its own status card.

Readable at the window

Dark mode, larger text sizes and iPad support, plus faster, more reliable sign-in.

Two steps

On the map before your next rush.

Find your spot and claim it

Type your name at the top of this page. Found it? Tap Claim this spot. Not there? Add it in a minute. Either way it’s free.

Run it from your phone

Get FoodChaser Vendor, sign in, and open for business in one tap.

Evidence, not a claim

Your check-in still wins. Always.

Live Finds isn’t a replacement for the people who cook. It’s what keeps the map from going dark while you’re busy doing it.

  • A chaser’s report needs a photo and someone physically within 150 m.
  • A find expires on its own after 4 hours unless other chasers confirm it.
  • Two “Gone” reports close it.
  • Your check-out closes it immediately, whatever the crowd says.

A false “closed” costs a chaser a wasted scroll. A false “open” costs them a drive. Disputes break the cheaper way.

Vendor questions

Is there a FoodChaser app for vendors?

Yes. FoodChaser Vendor is a free app for food trucks, stands, pop-ups and storefronts. It's on the App Store for iPhone and iPad, and it's coming to Android; it isn’t on Google Play yet. From it you open for business in one tap, set your wait time, send updates to your followers and see your menu as chasers see it.

Can strangers mark my food truck as open when it's closed?

A chaser can report a spot only from within 150 meters, with a photo, and the find expires on its own unless other chasers confirm it. Your own check-in or check-out is authoritative: it sets your status directly and overrides whatever the crowd reports.

How much does it cost to list a business on FoodChaser?

Listing your truck, stand, pop-up or storefront on FoodChaser is free, and the FoodChaser Vendor app is free.

Do I have to check in for my spot to show up?

No. Zero vendor check-ins are required for a spot to go live, because chasers can report it. Checking in yourself makes your status authoritative.

Can I manage more than one truck?

Yes. FoodChaser Vendor shows a live status card for each truck, so you can open and close them separately.

My business is already on FoodChaser. How do I claim it?

Search for it at foodchaser.io/claim and tap Claim this spot. FoodChaser lists restaurants plus spots chasers scouted themselves, so check there before creating a new account. Claiming is free, and the FoodChaser team reviews each claim.

How do I get started as a vendor?

First search for your spot at foodchaser.io/claim, since chasers may have scouted it already. If it isn't there, create a free vendor account at portal.foodchaser.io/seller/signup. Then sign in to the FoodChaser Vendor app on your phone.
