Restaurants & Food ServiceFraud Prevention3MediumOwner$ implied

Restaurants lose money from delivery app refund fraud because there is no reliable way to prove that specific food items were packed and handed off for delivery, leading to chargebacks they cannot dispute.

No existing method provides irrefutable, timestamped proof that a specific item was packed for a delivery order, leaving restaurants vulnerable to false refund claims.

  • Integration with delivery platforms to automatically submit packing proof and block fraudulent refunds
App Concept

PackProof ScanLog

A lightweight hardware-software system that creates a verifiable audit trail for every packed delivery order. Kitchen staff scan item-specific barcodes at the packing station, generating a timestamped digital log tied to the order ID. This record is automatically attached to the delivery platform order, providing irrefutable proof that items were prepared and packed, eliminating refund fraud and disputes.

Key Features
  • Wall-mounted optical scanner with one-swipe item barcode capture during rush
  • Real-time audit log with timestamp per item, auto-attached to delivery order ID
  • Integration with major delivery APIs to auto-submit proof during disputes
  • Analytics dashboard showing chargeback rates and prevented fraud savings
Target Users: Quick-service and fast-casual restaurant owners and kitchen managers who handle high-volume delivery orders and face significant chargeback losses.
Revenue Model: $49/mo per location SaaS subscription plus $199 one-time scanner hardware fee
