    There are three ways to pay for a Foodie Locker pickup locker: buy it outright, lease it monthly, or — for qualifying sites — a fully funded model with no upfront or monthly cost. The price depends mostly on the number of compartments, the screen and whether the unit is built in.

    Option 1: purchase

    You own the hardware. Best if you want a fixed asset and plan to keep the locker in place for several years.

    Option 2: lease

    A monthly payment spreads the cost and keeps cash free for the rest of the business.

    Option 3: fully funded (qualification-based)

    Qualifying sites can have a locker with £0 upfront and £0 monthly cost. Whether a site qualifies depends on an assessment of the location.

    Fully funded placement is subject to qualification and is not available at every site.

    What changes the price

    • Number and size of compartments
    • Kiosk screen, or screenless with access by phone or tablet
    • Front-loading or rear-loading
    • Built-in installation and fit-out work
    • Branding, wraps and signage
    • Software, support and any integration work

    Questions to ask before you get a quote

    • How many orders do you hand over at your busiest hour?
    • Do riders and customers both need to collect?
    • Is there space for a built-in unit, or only freestanding?
    • Which ordering systems do you use today?
