About the Company

The Fork

Online restaurant reservations with loyalty rewards

The Fork runs an online booking platform that helps people reserve tables at restaurants and access exclusive deals and rewards. Diners can discover restaurants, check availability, and make reservations through the platform, while restaurants reach more customers and manage bookings. The service earns money mainly by charging restaurants a fee for each reservation made through the platform (a commission). It also offers premium listings and advertising to boost visibility. In addition, the Yums loyalty program gives diners points for reservations that can be redeemed for discounts on future bookings. The Fork differentiates itself by combining a global network of restaurant partners with a built-in loyalty program and paid visibility options, creating multiple revenue streams and value for both diners and partners. Its goal is to simplify dining planning and help restaurants fill seats by driving reservations, loyalty, and repeat business.
