Closing Orders for a Pickup at a Set Time

A collection location can stop taking orders at a time you choose. After that time supporters can no longer pick it, and your other pickups stay open. For example, a school taking lunch orders can close Monday's orders at 9am on Monday and keep the rest of the week open.

Without a cutoff, a pickup stays open until your campaign ends.

Setting a cutoff

  1. Open your campaign and go to Campaign Settings, then the Ordering tab.
  2. On the collection location, tick Close orders for this pickup at a set time.
  3. Set the date and time under Orders close. It starts at 3pm the day before collection, so change it to suit you.
  4. Save your settings.

If the cutoff is after the pickup's collection start time, you will see a warning, because supporters could still order after collection has begun.

To remove a cutoff, untick the box and save.

What supporters see

  • Before the cutoff, the pickup shows its closing time, such as Order by Mon 16 Nov, 9:00am.
  • After the cutoff, the pickup is no longer offered on your campaign page or at checkout.
  • Anyone who still has the page open from before the cutoff cannot place an order for that pickup. They are asked to choose another.
  • If every pickup has closed, the page says orders have closed.

Things to know

  • Cutoffs apply to collection only. Delivery is not affected.
  • Orders you enter yourself from the dashboard, and Tap to Pay sales in the Raised app, are not limited by cutoffs.
  • Orders placed before the cutoff are not changed.
  • Your campaign's end date still applies. A cutoff after the campaign ends has no effect.
