FoodtruckBooking.com is a platform that places food truck owners and customers in direct contact with each other, without the intervention of third parties. FoodtruckBooking.com functions in two ways; on the one hand it offers food trucks the opportunity to create their own extensive profile page, which increases the findability of the food truck on the internet and in the relationship network on FoodtruckBooking.com. On the other hand, it offers a platform for customers to search for rolling kitchens for their festival, wedding or other types of events. They can both actively approach food trucks via the search function and place a general request.

Payments are always made online via credit card, PayPal or Apple Pay. This applies to the moment when you first register for a subscription during the registration process. Renewals are paid via direct debit. You give permission for this when you take out a subscription.
You will receive a reminder about this several weeks before your subscription period ends. If you do nothing, your subscription will be renewed automatically. If you want to terminate your subscription, then you should send an e-mail to [email protected] at least 1 month before the end of your subscription.
Upgrading is easy. Log in to your account. In the main menu, at the top of the screen, go to Subscription. Here you will see your food trucks. If you have a Basic subscription, you will see the name of your food truck AND an Upgrade button under Subscription overview. If you select this option, then you can implement the upgrade immediately yourself. Following the payment, you will see all the extra functions that form part of a Pro account.
The most likely reason is that your subscription period has expired and your subscription has been renewed. This is the only reason for which FoodtruckBooking is able to deduct money from your account by direct debit.
All your invoices are saved in your account and you can download them there. Log in to your account. In the main menu, at the top of the screen, go to Subscription. Go to the section Invoices. You can download your specified invoice again here.
If you want to upgrade from Basic to Pro, the difference that you need to pay will be calculated automatically. For example, if you have had a Basic account with FoodtruckBooking for 6 months, then the costs of an upgrade are: Difference between Basic and Pro divided by the remaining subscription period.
This could be due to two reasons. Firstly, the search terms that you use are important. The findability of your profile page has been optimized based on the main category that you have selected, your place and the name of the food truck. A combination of these search terms should display your profile page in the search results. The position in the search results depends on the competition for the search terms used.
In addition, search engines need time to index new internet pages. A profile page will usually be findable via the search engines after a few days, but that does not mean that the indexing process is complete. It can often take a few weeks before it is clear which position in the search results your profile page has achieved. It is also important to consider which search terms are being used.
You can change almost anything on your profile page yourself. First check whether you can change this yourself when you log in to your profile. You can change all the text and photos yourself. Has something gone wrong on your profile page and are you unable to explain what has caused this? We will gladly take a look. Complete the contact form on this website and describe clearly what the problem is. You will receive a reply as soon as possible.
If you want to upgrade from Basic to Pro, the difference that you need to pay will be calculated automatically.
