Stream connects and aggregates orders for all major third party food delivery services (Doordash, Grub hub, and Uber eats). Through Stream you will be able to manage all menus and orders for each third party DSP from a central location. The EZ Dine Stream integration will automatically process the DSP order to the EZ Dine App. This includes syncing the DSP order information, payments, kitchen printing, and displaying on the KDS screen. The integration eliminates the need for manual order entry or additional tablets and printers used for order fulfillment. An active third party DSP account will be required in order to use the Stream integration
