Bopple pricing in Australia (October 2026)
| Item | Bopple price | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Storefront | Free | Online store, digital menu and business listing. You can't take online orders on this plan. |
| Online ordering | $49 a month (14-day free trial) | Pickup, delivery, QR table ordering, the Orders Manager app, POS integrations and loyalty points |
| White-label for web (add-on) | $99 a month | A branded web app with a custom URL and a store directory |
| White-label app bundle (add-on) | $399 a month | Branded iOS and Android apps plus exportable reporting |
| Platform fee, Australia | 1.64% + $0.10 per successful order (from 1 October 2026) | Bopple's usage fee, worked out on the order total. It's refunded if you reject, cancel or fully refund an order, and you can absorb it or pass it on at checkout. |
| Card processing | Stripe's rates, charged separately | Card payments through Stripe |
| Held-balance transfer | Up to 1.45%, and only if your Stripe account is restricted | A safeguard fee you avoid by keeping your Stripe verification up to date |
What Bopple costs at a typical volume
This example uses 400 online orders a month at an average of $35, which is $14,000 in online sales:
- Online ordering plan: $49.00
- Platform fee: 1.64% of $14,000 = $229.60, plus 400 × $0.10 = $40.00
- Total: about $318.60 a month, excluding GST and Stripe card fees, if you absorb the platform fee. If you pass the fee on to customers, your cost drops to $49 a month, but your customers pay more for each order.
Chefzi's pricing is a flat A$36 a month on the card plan with no per-order or percentage fee. Card processing applies to card payments on both systems. Use your own order numbers: at low volumes the difference is small, and at high volumes a percentage fee grows with your sales.
What Bopple does well
- Integrations. Lightspeed Kounta and Square POS, Uber Direct and DoorDash Drive for delivery, and Marsello for loyalty, all listed on its site.
- Branded apps. Native iOS and Android apps if you need them, through the $399 bundle.
- A wide feature set. Kiosks, gift cards, scheduled pre-orders, order limiting at busy times, smart upselling and age checks for alcohol.
- A free way to start. You can build your menu on the free Storefront plan before you pay anything.
- An Australian team. Bopple has been in Australian hospitality for years, and its app is listed by Bopple Technologies Pty Ltd.
Bopple reviews: what's public
We found few independent merchant reviews of Bopple, so treat the figures below as a small sample.
- Bopple's customer app (for diners) has a rating of 2.6 out of 5 from 28 ratings on the Australian App Store. The complaints are about checkout changes and loading. This is the diner app, not the venue software.
- Orders Manager by Bopple (for venues) has a rating of 5.0 out of 5 from 2 ratings on the Australian App Store. One written review praises the support team, and an older review from 2020 complains about stability.
- One independent Australian review site, MarginCompare, scores Bopple 7.9 out of 10. It calls Bopple an affordable entry point and says larger, complex venues may outgrow it.
Ask Bopple for two venue references like yours and call them. That tells you more than star ratings do.
When Bopple is the better choice
- You run several sites or a franchise and want one branded app across them.
- You need a tight Lightspeed Kounta or Square integration, or kiosks.
- Your diners need to find you on a marketplace app.
When Chefzi is the better choice
- You want one flat monthly price with no fee that grows with each order.
- You run one or two sites and need pickup, local delivery and table QR without extra add-ons.
- You're leaving GloriaFood or Menulog and want your menu moved for you.

- Apple App Store AU: 2.6 out of 5 from 29 ratings
Recurring complaints
- Orders that never reached the venue. Diners describe paying, arriving to collect, and finding the venue never received the order (reviews from 2020 to 2024).
- Delivery fees shown late. A cluster of 2020 reviews says delivery fees appeared only after checkout.
- Login, crashes and offline errors after updates. Several 2025–2026 reviews report the app logging people out, failing to load or showing an offline error.
- Slow or no support. Reviewers mention ticket-only support and no reply on refunds or gift cards.
What reviewers like
- Fast reorders for regular coffee and lunch orders
- Order ahead so it is ready on arrival
- Simple, easy-to-use ordering when it works
There were too few ratings to say this reflects most venues' experience. Venue-side (merchant) reviews were not fetchable.
