Integration detail

Appetier + Yelp integration

Yelp still drives discovery in some markets, and its listing can drift from your Google one without anyone noticing.

What works

With your access: There is no access to give. In Yelp for Business, claim your page, set your website to your Appetier storefront, and keep hours, photos, and review replies current yourself.

On our own: Guests who tap the website link on your Yelp page land on your Appetier storefront and order direct. Appetier never asks them for a Yelp review.

What it does

Nothing on Yelp itself. Appetier does not read, edit, or post to your Yelp page. It runs your own ordering site, so Yelp visitors can reach direct ordering.

Who it's for

Restaurants in markets where Yelp still drives discovery.

Yelp for Business is where your page lives

Claiming your Yelp page is free. From Yelp for Business you set special hours one day at a time, add photos, and reply to reviews. A reply is public and sits under the review. You can also answer privately with a direct message. All of that stays your job, because no Appetier feature touches Yelp.

What access to Yelp's data would require

Yelp's data API is paid after a 30 day trial, and no Appetier feature uses it. So Appetier does not check your Yelp hours, website, address, or phone, and it does not bring Yelp reviews into your reports. Nothing syncs in either direction.

What Appetier does for a Yelp visitor

Add your ordering site as the website on your Yelp page. Guests who tap it land on your own storefront, where orders go straight to you. Appetier can show your Yelp page as a profile link on that storefront. It never asks guests for a Yelp review, because Yelp forbids asking for them.
