When you enable delivery orders in Bopple Venue Manager you will be asked to enter a delivery radius. This is a straight-line distance in kms used to determine a circular delivery area around your store as the midpoint.
This isn't ideal for some venues. For example, if increasing your current delivery radius would result in your delivery area expanding across a river; delivering to the other side may add an unacceptable amount of travel time.
You might also want to offer delivery to multiple specific areas. For example, your core delivery area and a university campus that is outside of the core area.
For these cases we now have the ability to load custom delivery areas. You will need to draw the area in the tool provided below and then send us some data so that we can apply it to your venue.
Drawing your custom delivery area
1. Go to http://geojson.io
2. Search for your store location, or simply click+drag the map to locate
3. Click the 'polygon' shape in the toolbar on the map as shown below (if you hover your mouse over it, it will say Draw a polygon
)
4. Draw the border of your delivery area by clicking at various points on the map
5. Complete the polygon/delivery area by making one final click to connect back to the original point on the map. This will turn the polygon/delivery area grey, and will populate the JSON (mapping data) in the console on the right hand side.
6. Select all of the JSON text by clicking it and then typing Ctrl+A (or by using your mouse to highlight all)
7. Copy the text using Ctrl+C (or by right-clicking and then selecting 'Copy')
8. Paste the text into an email to help@bopple.me using Ctrl+V (or right-click and select 'Paste') - example below
9. We will take care of the rest!
