OpenRest (founded 2011) was a software company that provided restaurant owners with online ordering websites before being acquired by Wix.com in October 2014.[2] The company was based in Delaware with research and development offices in Tel Aviv.[citation needed]

Background[edit]

OpenRest was founded in 2010 by Danny Leshem and Yoav Amit.[3] The company first focused on Web applications, before shifting towards mobile development in 2011.[1]

By 2013, 300 restaurants had launched their OpenRest-powered ordering application on the App Store. Its R&D office was based in Tel Aviv.[1] In June 2013, OpenRest and RestCloud announced a collaboration.[4]

In late 2013, OpenRest partnered with Bits of Gold to be the first restaurant online ordering system to provide bitcoin payments to all its clients.[5][6] In June 2014, OpenRest launched in French.[7] In July 2014, OpenRest integrated with BitPay to expand its bitcoin payment offering.

OpenRest was acquired by Wix.com in October 2014 for $12 million.[3]
